Hey thanks for the shout out! I was wondering when you were going to post results. There are some really cool visualizations in the linked opani page: http://opani.com/ryan/elevator-analysis/results/#key=elevator http://opani.com/ryan/elevator-analysis/results/#key=elevato... I think the most relevant part of this for web folks is the gamification aspect (obviously its what I was interested in in your previous post). I'd love to see a version of this where you show 50% of users "play 20 times to get an easter egg" and give the other 50% no incentive. How much does it actually increase engagement?

haha of course, thanks for the active commenting on the last thread! i think that's a good example, but it seems pretty clear that your hypothesis was correct :D

  Well its an obvious insight. But the actual increase in time spent on page is what would be interesting.

    We have the session lengths in terms of time as well -- all the data is on git

      But you had the gamification stuff in place for everyone right? So there'd be no control group.

      i cant respond to your note directly, but true, a further experiment could be done to analyze how much of an effect the gamification had, but the existence of the effect is clear
