Gamification?

I am currently reflecting having posted the two tweets I have copied below:

Why do we need 'Municipal Gamification' to incentivise public workers to do their jobs? why did we kill vocation?

why is it, whenever I hear the term #gamification I think of Hans Christian Andersen?  

Having just undertaking an extensive bit of consultancy/research for a customer on exploiting big data in the retail arena, I am currently thinking that a considered opinion on Gamification is needed. It probably needs more psychologists than entrepreneurs.

Would love to debate, but it needs to be away fro the buzz of a San Francisco 'hype fest'.
