(OVERSING HUMOR)

Our in-app default currency while in development is called “Oversing Regular Coins” or, O.R.C. And now that the gamification I keep seeing messages like +5 ORC, or -ORC when someone changes state on a task I’m part of. Which makes me laugh like hell every time.

When configuring workflows people with permissions to do so can add rewards (or costs) to the workflow based upon either the state (column) or the button pressed (row). Administrators can create Awards. These function like inventory in an adventure game. But they effectively create an custom form of measurement that can be used instead of units, time, and money.

We assume that people will use these awards to ‘win’ prizes of some sort. We used something on this order and it’s tremendously powerful.

For example if you have 10k of “gumballs’ you might buy a lunch at a restaurant for your team by opening a “Rewards” project and pressing a button.

Possibilities are pretty much endless.
