BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a game system and a game server.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventionally, in a game system, a plurality of terminal devices that can be operated with respect to a game player and a game server that provides information based on signals supplied from the plurality of terminal devices are connected in a communicable state It is well known that it is configured as described above, and is known as a simple service that allows users to enjoy a game without actually gathering in one place.
[0003]
Among such simple services, video game apparatuses capable of competing golf games with an unspecified number of game players via the Internet are provided (for example, see Patent Document 1). In this video game apparatus, the golf game server includes transmission means for receiving a communication of participation in an open tournament from each game player and transmitting a personal information input screen, and provides various games to the game player. Can do.
[0004]
In addition to the golf game described above, there are various games. As an example, there is a mahjong game in which the game content is displayed by the operation of the game player via the Internet and an actual mahjong is played. There is a game system that can provide a game, and it is possible to enjoy a mahjong game with an unknown game player in various places without performing the complicated work of collecting the number of mahjong players.
[0005]
Here, in an actual mahjong game, the parent is determined first, and the time until the parent turns once for all is called the east hall, and the game player who is first selected as the parent is designated as the east. The station where the next game player is in charge of the parent is called East 2 station, and this is done up to 4 East stations.
[0006]
Then, in principle, a predetermined number of kites were distributed, and then the so-called “tsumo”, in which the kites were drawn in order from the parents, and the task of “driving”, in which the kites were thrown into the field, were repeated in principle. After that, the game is developed so that each game player reaches a so-called “smoothed” state in which the wrinkles (hands) of the game players satisfy certain conditions and rules. And for the game player who has reached the softening, if the last trap that has reached the softening, the so-called “waiting” is a hit of another game player, it will be “Ron”, and it will be in the state of softening with Tsumo In the case of “Rong”, a predetermined score is automatically paid from the game player who beats the waiting game, and in the case of “Tsumo”, all the game players are automatically paid. It will be.
[0007]
Each station moves to the next station as a general rule when the game is played by a game player other than the parent or when all the game players are not softened and the station ends. The parent also changes with the next game player.
[0008]
Then, when the east hall is finished, the player enters the south hall next, and the south hall is carried out until the parent turns to each game player once in the same manner as the east hall. This is called “Han-Chan”. Usually, at the end of the south hall, the total score of the game, that is, the half-village is settled, and then the half-village is performed several times, and finally the whole half-village is finished. The general mahjong game method is to settle the total score.
[0009]
In playing this mahjong game, various rules are imposed, and it is normal for a game player who violates the rule to be penalized as a person who disturbs the place.
[0010]
For example, in a state where it can be softened with one more sheet, a so-called “Ron or Tsumo” is declared even though it is not a so-called “tempering”, or a Ron or Tsumo is declared with a spear different from a waiter. "Long" or "Wrong Tsumo", Ron if there is a wait in his trash, or Ron until his turn turns again after missing the wait, and The so-called “Fritenron” that misses the waiting line after reaching and is called “Chonbo” is a so-called “Chonbo” that makes it impossible for the station to continue. I have to pay everyone.
