I think the gaming analogies make sense. If you invest time and effort in it, it sure will be more useful in your CV than "Level 80 Paladin" under "Other Achievements"; if not, no hiring manager will ever pass on an otherwise great candidate for not being a part of it.

And it allows outliers to get potentially amazing job offers from your partners.

It's exciting to think that with today's easy access to cheap cloud computing and good process isolation you can have instanced "raids" in the same way as an MMO so I can get my very own version of a challenge that can be as realistic as possible.
