    It's like rats getting cheese for completing a maze. That is their version of phat loot.

    Humans now spend 90% of their lives staring at squares and rectangles.

    Tom Chatfield has some interesting things to say on this topic. Read his book "Fun Inc" if you're interested.

    I saw Schell speak about this in some TED talk. Makes kinda sense but I do hate points. Games are great for the challenge like the video mentions.
