I didn't know those, thanks! Well, no, I'm not scared. I fully understand how many people could not like this kind of counting/gamification, but I would say that we should test everything that can engage users and readers. Wikisources are historically understaffed :-), and if this kind of games could help some users to do the hard and often boring job of fixing typos/proofreading/validating, I don't see why it'd be regarded as bad.
