I've been thinking about ways this could be done with existing code; we have Streaks and Challenges, but one of the difficulties will arise from the fact that the easiest way to lose a streak is to forget to check some stuff off before your cron processes. Also, nothing prevents you from cheating by clicking undeservedly, either -- you're on the honor system to check (or not check) stuff off at all times, but with a head-to-head competition, some folks might choose to click to keep up in order not to lose.

Also, Habits are harder to track because of their natural 'decay' feature.

It is an interesting idea, but might have to be done on paper instead of mechanically, or be strongly opt-in with lots of extra support for it.
