I definitely agree with you that achievement systems could be usefully applied to the real world. I built a point system recently to manage my own life and have now become addicted to flossing. I submitted for a demo account but would love to talk to you more generally. tony@tonystubblebine.com

Also, are you Sean Huber of InquryApp?
