Participants/attendees will automatically accumulate points by completing specific tasks around the virtual conference site. Their points will auto-tally once the task has been completed. Conference administrators can build the tasks and points for each action throughout the site. The tasks in the game are driven around active participation throughout the platform I.e watching specific sessions, making social posts, viewing posters, commenting in discussion boards and social walls, visiting, the exhibit hall, engaging in exhibitor video chat rooms, viewing exhibitor resources and much more.
