If you're into gaming this could be just the incentive you need to stick to the flylady schedule - gain XP and level up by doing chores!

    that looks fun if a bit time consuming filling in the adventure sheets - better than the housework tho lol!
    I THINK is a whole sentence, not a replacement for I Know

    If you don't like Fly Lady, perhaps you'd enjoy Chore Wars:

    I'm already a member of a group on another web site, but someone here might like to start one. You can all be on the same "team" and make a list of "adventures" (chores) and have fun. Sometimes, being a bit competitive helps motivate you to wash those dishes!

    OMG!!!
    It looks like guild wars. If only I could convince my DH it was, he might get off the computer for long enough to actually do some housework!!

    Anybody seen Chorewars, yet?

    http://www.chorewars.com

    It's sorta based on Guildwars... I think designed for households where various family members need motivation to pitch in on housework. However, I know of a few message boards that are doing it, too.

    Even though a message board party doesn't have any real-life rewards linked to the points and treasures, we're still finding it great fun and highly motivating. Some of you may enjoy setting up a team, here. Ours has silly in-joke treasures and monsters.

    You can START a party and then give others the invite! :D

    Like I said, I am already in one on another board. I started it and posted about it and others joined. You could start one, then post the invite link here. The link is good for three days, with updated links/codes available whenever.
