My co-worker would absolutely love this. He is the gamer type, has to get every achievement in every game ever. Good guy, but clearly driven by badges and the like.

Thing is, it is within JIRA, besides the guy that installs and maintains JIRA none of the developers in the company like JIRA. It is slow, flashy, and doing basic tasks takes too many mouse clicks. This has meant that our developers spend as little time within JIRA as possible, meaning that the quality of the items in JIRA goes down. It is strictly an enter hours, close bug report type deal. No discussion is held within JIRA on the best way to fix a bug (done in private email instead or in-person meetings) or feature requests that don't properly get split up into sub-tasks.

Not that I am saying that Bugzilla would be any better for that matter, but at least it would load within a reasonable amount of time ...
