With some such probabilistic games, the set of symbols used include standard symbols and function symbols, and 30 the game outcome is determined on the basis of the displayed standard symbols and the function associated with any displayed function symbol. For example, standard symbols may resemble fruit such as apples, pears and bananas with a win outcome being determined when a 35 predetermined number of the same fruit appear on a display 6481597 1 (GHMatters) P25516.AU.2 MELANIEE 8/05/2015 - 6 along a win line, or are displayed according to defined outcome patterns such as scattered, and so on. The function associated with a function symbol may be for example a wild function wherein display of the function 5 symbol is treated during consideration of the game outcome as any of the standard symbols. A function symbol may be represented as the word "WILD", a star, or by any other suitable word or symbol. Other functions are also envisaged such as scatter functions, multiplier functions, 10 repeat win functions, jackpot functions and feature commencement functions. Referring to Figure 1, a schematic diagram of core components of a gaming system 10 in accordance with the 15 present embodiment is shown. The core components comprise a player interface 12 and a game controller 14. The player interface 12 is arranged to enable interaction between a player and the gaming system and for this purpose includes input/output components required for the 20 player to enter instructions and play the game. Components of the player interface 12 may vary but will typically include a credit mechanism 16 to enable a player to input credits and receive payouts, one or more displays 25 18 which may comprise a touch screen, and a game play mechanism 20 arranged to enable a player to input game play instructions. The game controller 14 is in data communication with the 30 player interface 12 and typically includes a processor 22 arranged to process game play instructions and output game player outcomes to the display 18. Typically, the game play instructions are stored as program code 26 in a memory 24 that can also be hardwired. It will be 35 understood that in this specification the term "processor" is used to refer generically to any device that can process game play instructions and may include a 6481597 1 (GHMatters) P25516.AU.2 MELANIEE 8/05/2015 microprocessor, microcontroller, programmable logic device or other computational device such as a personal computer or a server. 5 In this example, the memory 24 also stores game related data including meter data 28 derived from at least one game meter 29. The meter data 28 includes information indicative of the number of credits received and dispensed by the gaming system 10, and may also include information 10 indicative of the number of games played, the number of wins, and any other game related data. The meter data may also include security information such as information indicative of whether a door of the gaming system cabinet has been opened, a tilt has occurred during game play, and 15 so on. The meter data 28 may also include screen shot data representative of at least some of the screens displayed to a player during game play. The screen shot data may be 20 used to analyse game outcomes subsequent to completion of games, for example so as to provide an indication as to the screens displayed during a winning outcome or during a perceived fault such as a false jackpot. 25 The memory 24 is also arranged to store symbols data indicative of a plurality of symbols, in the present example associated with a plurality of reels, and function data indicative of one or more functions allocatable to the symbols. 30 The gaming system 10 also includes an interface device 30 arranged under control of the processor 22 to facilitate transfer of at least some of the meter data 28 stored in the memory 24 from the memory 24 to a portable data 35 storage device 32. In this example, the interface device 30 is a USB interface and the portable data storage device 6481597 1 (GHMatters) P25516.AU.2 MELANIEE 8/05/2015 - 8 32 is a USB memory device mechanically and electrically connectable to the USB interface. The gaming system also comprises an authorisation 5 arrangement, in this example in the form of authorisation program code 26 stored in the memory 24 and arranged in association with the processor 22 to control access to a system menu, in particular so as to ensure that only authorised persons are able to access the meter data. The 10 system menu provides an authorised person with a user friendly interface usable to instruct the gaming system 10 to transfer at least some of the meter data from the memory 24 to a portable data storage device 32 connected to the interface device 30. Authorisation of a person may 15 be carried out by requesting entry of a password, or in any other way. Where the interface device 30 is wireless the user may be prompted from a portable device to enter information to interface with the authorization program code 26 to control access to the system menu. 20 For example, in an alternative authorisation arrangement, the portable data storage device 32 may include a unique identifier which is compared by the processor 22 with a reference identifier stored in the memory 24 in order to 25 determine whether the portable data storage device is genuine. In a further alternative authorisation arrangement, the gaming system may be provided with a reader which may be 30 in the form of a player tracking device, and the person authorised to access the meter data provided with an identification card readable by the player tracking device and including information identifying the person. Insertion of the identification card into the player 35 tracking device first causes the player tracking device to verify that the person indicated on the card is authorised to gain access to the meter data, and secondly causes a 6481597 1 (GHMatters) P25516.AU.2 MELANIEE 8/05/2015 - 9 request to be made for the person to enter an authorisation code such as a PIN number. Verification of the PIN number causes access to the meter data to be permitted. 5 In a further alternative arrangement, no authorisation is required. With this arrangement, other security measures may be included, such as providing the interface device and the portable data storage device with proprietary 10 complementary connectors. While the present example is described in relation to a USB interface device 30 and a corresponding portable USB data storage device, it will be understood that other 15 arrangements are possible for facilitating transfer of meter data from the memory 24 to the portable data storage device 30. For example, the gaming system 10 may be provided with a wireless interface device, for example arranged to communicate with a portable data storage 20 device using Bluetooth@, other "near field" communication schema or WiFi communications. With this arrangement, it will be understood that it is not necessary to mechanically engage the portable data storage device with the interface device 30. 25 In the present example, the gaming system is arranged such that meter data is transferred from the memory 24 to a portable data storage device 32 when actively instructed by a person, for example using a system menu. However, 30 other arrangements are possible. For example, the gaming system, and in particular the processor 22 in association with program code 26 stored in the memory 24 may be arranged to transfer meter data to the portable storage device 32 automatically when a connection is established 35 between the interface device 30 and the portable data storage device 32. 6481597 1 (GHMatters) P25516.AU.2 MELANIEE 8/05/2015 - 10 The gaming system 10 can take a number of different forms. In a first form, a gaming device in the form of a stand alone gaming machine is provided wherein all or most 5 components required for implementing a game are present in a player operable gaming machine. In a second form, a distributed architecture is provided wherein some of the components required for implementing 10 the game are present in a player operable gaming device in the form of a gaming terminal and some of the components required for implementing the game are located remotely relative to the gaming terminal. For example, a "thick client" architecture may be used wherein part of the game 15 is executed on a player operable gaming terminal and part of the game is executed remotely, such as by a gaming server; or a "thin client" architecture may be used wherein most of the game is executed remotely such as by a gaming server and a player operable gaming terminal is 20 used only to display audible and/or visible gaming information to the player and receive gaming inputs from the player. However, it will be understood that other arrangements are 25 envisaged. For example, an architecture may be provided wherein a gaming device is networked to a gaming server and the respective functions of the gaming device and the gaming server are selectively modifiable. For example, the gaming system may operate in stand alone gaming 30 machine mode, "thick client" mode or "thin client" mode depending on the game being played, operating conditions, and so on. Other variations will be apparent to persons skilled in the art. 35 A gaming system in the form of a stand alone gaming machine 40 is illustrated in Figure 2. The gaming machine 40 includes a console 42 having a display 44 on which is 6481597 1 (GHMatters) P25516.AU.2 MELANIEE 8/05/2015 - 11 displayed representations of a game 46 that can be played by a player. A mid-trim 50 of the gaming machine 40 houses a bank of buttons 52 for enabling a player to interact with the gaming machine, in particular during 5 game play. The mid-trim 50 also houses a credit input mechanism 54 which in this example includes a coin input chute 54A and a bill collector 54B. Other credit input mechanisms may also be employed, for example, a card reader for reading a smart card, debit card or credit 10 card. A reading device may also be provided for the purpose of reading a player tracking device, for example as part of a loyalty program. The player tracking device may be in the form of a card, flash drive or any other portable storage medium capable of being read by the 15 reading device. A top box 56 may carry artwork 58, including for example pay tables and details of bonus awards and other information or images relating to the game. Further 20 artwork and/or information may be provided on a front panel 59 of the console 42. A coin tray 60 is mounted beneath the front panel 59 for dispensing cash payouts from the gaming machine 30. 25 The display 44 is in the form of a video display unit, particularly a cathode ray tube screen device. Alternatively, the display 44 may be a liquid crystal display, plasma screen, or any other suitable video display unit. The top box 56 may also include a display, 30 for example a video display unit, which may be of the same type as the display 44, or of a different type. The display 44 may comprise a touch screen usable by a player to interact with the gaming machine, in particular during game play, and to interact with the system menu in order 35 to cause transfer of meter data to a portable storage device. 6481597 1 (GHMatters) P25516.AU.2 MELANIEE 8/05/2015 - 12 The display 44 in this example is arranged to display representations of several reels, each reel of which has several associated symbols. During operation of the game, the reels first appear to rotate then stop with at least 5 one symbol visible on each reel. Game outcomes are determined on the basis of the visible symbols together with any special functions associated with the symbols. A player marketing module (PMM) 62 having a display 64 is 10 connected to the gaming machine 10. The main purpose of the PMM 62 is to allow the player to interact with a player loyalty system. The PMM has a magnetic card reader for the purpose of reading a player tracking device, for example as part of a loyalty program. However other 15 reading devices may be employed and the player tracking device may be in the form of a card, flash drive or any other portable storage medium capable of being read by the reading device. The PMM 62 may also be arranged to read identification information from an identification card in 20 order to authorise a person to gain access to meter data stored in the gaming machine memory. The gaming system 40 also includes the interface device 30, in this example in the form of a USB interface, 25 mounted on the console 42 so as to be readily accessible. Figure 3 shows a block diagram of operative components of a gaming machine 100 which may be the same as or different to the gaming machine shown in Figure 2. 30 The gaming machine 100 includes a game controller 101 having a processor 102. Instructions and data to control operation of the processor 102 in accordance with the present invention are stored in a memory 103 which is in 35 data communication with the processor 102. Typically, the gaming machine 100 will include both 6481597 1 (GHMatters) P25516.AU.2 MELANIEE 8/05/2015 - 13 volatile and non-volatile memory and more than one of each type of memory, with such memories being collectively represented by the memory 103. 5 Figure 4 shows a block diagram of the main components of an exemplary memory 103. The memory 103 includes RAM 103A, EPROM 103B and a mass storage device 103C. The RAM 103A typically temporarily holds program files for execution by the processor 102 and related data. The 10 EPROM 103B may be a boot ROM device and/or may contain some system or game related code. The mass storage device 103C is typically used to store game programs, the integrity of which may be verified and/or authenticated by the processor 102 using protected code from the EPROM 103B 15 or elsewhere, and meter data 28. The gaming machine has hardware meters 104 for purposes including ensuring regulatory compliance and monitoring player credit, an input/output (I/0) interface 105 for 20 communicating with a player interface 120 of the gaming machine 100, the player interface 120 having several peripheral devices.
