    @sched AMS's are definitely wise to the gamification trends. I know Aptify has added elements for it. #assnchat

    @craigsorrell ha! I know! @pinnovation actually has a really good reason to use the term "game dynamics" rather than"gamification" #assnchat

    I HATE that word RT @TahiraCreates: gamification is just one of those made up words really - not really being embraced it seems #assnchat

    @kikilitalien A2 Gamification is a means to an end: more inv by members. I don't think most assoc's need to do it but it can help #assnchat

    @kikilitalien We've used scavenger hunt activities to encourage convention flow. Those who finish hunt are entered to win prizes. #assnchat
