In FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, reference numeral 300 denotes a card unit that is provided adjacent to the pachinko machine 1 on a one-on-one basis so that it can receive a ball loan by inserting a prepaid card or cash. .

  In the vicinity of the center of the game area 7, a plurality of types of effects that can be distinguished from each other based on the establishment of a predetermined start condition (for example, that the hit ball has won the first start winning opening 13 or the second starting winning opening 14). A variable display device 9 is provided for variably (variably) displaying decorative patterns for display and for displaying and displaying a display result.

  The variable display device 9 of the present embodiment is configured by a liquid crystal display (LCD), and is configured such that decorative symbols are displayed and controlled in three display areas (decorative symbol display areas) of left, middle, and right. Yes. Note that winning means that a game ball has entered a predetermined area such as a winning opening. Deriving and displaying the display result means that the symbol is stopped and displayed (except for a temporary stop before so-called re-variation).

  In the present embodiment, the numbers “0” to “9” are used as decorative symbols displayed in the three display areas of the variable display device 9. During variable display (fluctuation) of decorative symbols, in principle, decorative symbols “0” to “9” are displayed in numerical order.

  A special symbol display (special symbol display device) 8 that variably displays a special symbol as identification information is provided on the variable display device 9. In the present embodiment, the special symbol display 8 is realized by a simple and small display (for example, 7-segment LED) capable of variably displaying numbers “0” to “9”, for example. The special symbol display 8 may be configured to variably display a larger number of numbers such as “0” to “99” in order to make it difficult for the player to grasp a specific stop symbol.

  The variable display device 9 performs variable (fluctuation) display of the decorative symbol as a symbol for decoration (production) during the variable symbol display period of the special symbol by the special symbol indicator 8. The variable display device 9 for performing variable display of decorative symbols is controlled by an effect control microcomputer (not shown) mounted on the effect control board. The special symbol display 8 that performs variable display of the special symbol is controlled by a game control microcomputer mounted on the game control board (see FIG. 3).

  At the bottom of the variable display device 9, four displays for displaying the number of effective winning balls that have entered the first start winning opening 13 and the second starting winning opening 14, that is, the number of reserved memories (also referred to as start memory or start winning memory). A special symbol storage display 18 is provided. Every time there is an effective start prize, the display color of one display is changed. Each time the variable display on the special symbol display 8 is started, the display color of one display is restored.

  In this embodiment, since the special symbol display 8 and the special symbol hold storage display 18 are provided separately, the number of hold storages can be displayed even during variable display. In the display area of the variable display device 9, a special symbol reserved storage display area including four display areas for displaying the number of reserved memories may be provided. In this embodiment, the upper limit value of the number of reserved memories is 4, but the upper limit value may be larger. Further, the upper limit value may be changeable according to the gaming state.

  Below the variable display device 9, there is formed a first start winning opening 13 through which a game ball can be won. The game ball won in the first start winning opening 13 is guided to the back of the game board 6 and detected by the first start opening switch 13a.

  Further, a second start winning opening 14 is formed immediately below the first starting winning opening 13. The second start winning opening 14 is provided with a variable winning ball apparatus 15 that opens and closes. When the variable winning ball device 15 is in a physically closed state, the game ball does not win the second starting winning port 14, and when the variable winning ball device 15 is in a physically open state, the second starting winning prize is obtained. A game ball can be won in the mouth 14. The variable winning ball device 15 is opened and closed by a solenoid 16. When the variable winning ball apparatus 15 is in the open state, it becomes easy for the game ball to win the second start winning opening 14 (easy to start winning), which is advantageous for the player. The game ball that has won the second start winning opening 14 is guided to the back of the game board 6 and detected by the second start opening switch 14a.

  A special variable winning device that is opened by the solenoid 21 in the big hit gaming state or the small hit gaming state is provided below the start winning opening 14. The special variable winning device includes an opening / closing plate 20 and forms a big winning opening. The game ball that has entered the big prize opening is detected by the count switch 23.

  A normal symbol display 10 is provided directly above the variable display device 9. The normal symbol display 10 variably displays a plurality of types of identification information (for example, “◯” and “x”) called normal symbols.

  When the game ball passes through the gate 32 and is detected by the gate switch 32a, the variable display of the normal symbol display 10 is started. In this embodiment, the left and right lamps (the symbols can be visually recognized when lit) are alternately lit to perform variable display. For example, if the left lamp is lit at the end of variable display, it is a win. . When the stop symbol on the normal symbol display 10 is a predetermined symbol (winning symbol), the variable winning ball apparatus 15 is opened for a predetermined time for a predetermined number of times. That is, the state of the variable winning ball device 15 changes from a disadvantageous state to a player's advantageous state when the normal symbol is a winning symbol. In the vicinity of the normal symbol display 10, a normal symbol holding storage display 41 having a display unit with four LEDs for displaying the number of balls passing through the gate 32 is provided. Each time a game ball passes to the gate 32, the normal symbol storage memory display 41 increases the number of LEDs to be turned on by one. Then, every time variable display on the normal symbol display 10 is started, the number of LEDs to be lit is reduced by one.

  The game board 6 is provided with a plurality of winning holes 29, 30, 33, 39, and winning of game balls to the winning holes 29, 30, 33, 39 is performed by winning hole switches 29a, 30a, 33a, 39a, respectively. Detected. Each winning opening 29, 30, 33, 39 constitutes a winning area provided in the game board 6 as an area for accepting game balls and allowing winning. The first start winning opening 13, the second starting winning opening 14, and the big winning opening also constitute a winning area that accepts a game ball and allows winning. Decorative lamps 25 flashing and displayed during the game are provided around the left and right of the game area 7 of the game board 6, and there is an out port 26 for taking in a hit ball that has not won a prize.

  In addition, two speakers 27 serving as sound output means in the present invention that utters (outputs) sound effects and sounds as predetermined sound outputs are provided on the left and right upper portions outside the game area 7. On the outer periphery of the game area 7, a top frame lamp 28a, a left frame lamp 28b, and a right frame lamp 28c are provided. Further, a decoration LED is installed around each structure (such as a big prize opening) in the game area 7. The top frame lamp 28a, the left frame lamp 28b, the right frame lamp 28c, and the decorative LED are examples of a decorative light emitter provided in the gaming machine.

  Also, below the left speaker 27 is provided a prize ball LED 51 that is lit while paying out the prize ball, and below the right speaker 27 is provided a ball break LED 52 that is lit when the supply ball is cut. Yes.

  The pachinko machine 1 has a ball striking device (not shown) that drives a drive motor in response to a player operating the ball striking operation handle 5 and uses the rotational force of the drive motor to launch a game ball to the game area 7. Z). A game ball launched from the ball striking device enters the game area 7 through a ball striking rail formed in a circular shape so as to surround the game area 7, and then descends the game area 7. If the game ball enters the first start winning opening 13 or the second start winning opening 14 and is detected by the first start opening switch 13a or the second start opening switch 14a, it is in a state where variable symbol display can be started ( For example, when the big hit game ends or the previous variable display ends), the special symbol display 8 starts the variable display (variation) of the special symbol, and the variable display device 9 starts the variable display of the decorative symbol. If the variable symbol special display cannot be started, the reserved memory number for the special symbol storage memory display 18 is increased by one.

  The variable display of the special symbol on the special symbol display 8 and the decorative symbol on the variable display device 9 stops when a predetermined time has elapsed. When the stop symbol at the time of stoppage becomes a probable change symbol (excluding a sudden probability change symbol described later) or a non-probable change symbol in the big hit symbol, it shifts to a big hit gaming state (probable big hit or non-probable big hit (usually also called big hit)). . That is, the special variable prize-winning device is opened until a predetermined time (for example, 29 seconds) elapses or until a predetermined number (for example, 10) of game balls have won the big prize opening. It should be noted that one round in the big hit gaming state is a period from when the special variable winning device is opened until a predetermined period elapses or until a predetermined number (for example, ten) of hitting balls wins the big winning opening. In this embodiment, when the stop symbol is changed to the probable variation symbol or the non-probability variation symbol, the big hit gaming state is continued for 15 rounds. When these big hit states are finished, the variable display device 9 displays and outputs a two-dimensional barcode serving as special access information of the present invention.

  In this embodiment, the special symbol variable display on the special symbol display 8 and the decorative symbol variable display on the variable display device 9 are synchronized. Here, the synchronization means that the variable display period (variable display time) is the same. In addition, the display result on the special symbol display 8 (a special symbol stop symbol) corresponds to the display result on the variable display device 9 (decorative symbol stop symbol). The correspondence between the two symbols will be described later.

  Next, the type of gaming state and the transition of gaming state will be described. First, the probability variation state (probability variation state) refers to a gaming state that is advantageous for a player who has a higher probability of a big hit (that is, a symbol is a big hit symbol) than the normal gaming state and the short-time state.

  Also, the short time state (time shortening state) means that the special symbol variable display time (variation time) of the special symbol on the special symbol display 8 and the variable display device 9 is the normal gaming state and the probability variation state (except the probability variation time short state). It means a gaming state that is shortened. By reducing the variable display time in this manner, the variable display of symbols is frequently executed, and the probability of jackpot per unit time is improved, resulting in an advantageous state for the player. In the short time state, in the normal symbol display 10, the probability that the stop symbol becomes a winning symbol is higher than the normal gaming state and the probability variation state (excluding the probability variation time short state), and the opening time and the release time in the variable winning ball device 15 are increased. One or both of the number of times is increased more than the normal game state and the probability change state (except for the probability change time short state), which is a more advantageous state for the player. Further, in the short time state, the variable symbol display time (variation time) of the normal symbol on the normal symbol display device 10 is shorter than the normal game state and the probable change state (excluding the probable change short time state), which is further advantageous for the player. It becomes a state. In addition, the probability that the stop symbol of the normal symbol becomes a winning symbol is improved, and one or both of the opening time and the number of times of opening in the variable winning ball apparatus 15 are increased, and the variable display time of the normal symbol is reduced. A normal state other than the high base state is called a low base state.

  Here, in the pachinko machine 1 of the present embodiment, the gaming state transitions as follows.

  (1) When the normal game state and the short-time state, the probability change symbol (excluding the sudden probability variation symbol) is a big hit, and when the big hit game ends, the game state is shifted from the normal game state and the short-time state to the probability change time-short state. . As a result, the probability that the special symbol and the normal symbol stop symbol become a winning symbol is increased, the variation time of the special symbol and the normal symbol is shortened, and the opening time and the number of times of opening in the variable winning ball apparatus 15 are also increased.

  (2) In the probability variation state, the probability variation symbol is a big hit, and when the big hit game is finished, the probability variation time short state is maintained without changing again.

  (3) In the normal game state and the short-time state, a big hit is made with a non-probable variable symbol, and when the big-hit game is ended, the time-short state is controlled by a predetermined number of fluctuations (for example, 100 times) after the big hit. That is, when the gaming state is the normal gaming state, the transition from the normal gaming state to the short-time state is made a predetermined number of times of variation, and when the gaming state is the short-time state, the short-time state is continued for a predetermined number of times of variation. At this time, the variation time of the special symbol and the normal symbol is shortened, and the opening time and the number of times of opening in the variable winning ball apparatus 15 are increased. Then, when the change of the predetermined number of changes is started, the gaming state is shifted from the short-time state to the normal gaming state.

  (4) When the probability change state and the probability change time short state, a big hit is made with a non-probability variable symbol, and when the big hit game is ended, the time is controlled to a short time state by a predetermined number of fluctuations (for example, 100 times) after the big hit ends. In other words, the state is shifted from the probability variation state and the probability variation short time state to the short time state by a predetermined number of fluctuations. At this time, the variation time of the special symbol and the normal symbol is shortened, and the opening time and the number of times of opening in the variable winning ball apparatus 15 are increased. Then, when the change of the predetermined number of changes is started, the gaming state is shifted from the short-time state to the normal gaming state.

Specifically, “000”, “111”, “222”, “333”, “444”, “555”, “666”, “777”, “888”, “999”. Among these, the symbols (“111”, “333”, “555”, “777”, “999”) in a state of being arranged with an odd number of decorative symbols are probability variation symbols, and the symbols in a state of being arranged with an even number of decorative symbols (“000”, “222”, “444”, “666”, “888”) are non-probable variables.

  Next, the reach display mode (reach) will be described. The reach display mode (reach) in this embodiment is a variable display (variable display) for decorative symbols that have not yet stopped when the stopped decorative symbols constitute part of the jackpot symbol. And all or part of the decorative symbols are in a state of being variably displayed synchronously while constituting all or part of the jackpot symbol.

  For example, in the left, right and right display areas of the variable display device 9, the left and right display areas are displayed in a state in which a decorative symbol (for example, “7”) which is a part of the jackpot symbol is stopped and displayed. The display area is still in a variable display state, and all or some of the symbols in the display area are synchronously variably displayed while constituting all or part of the jackpot symbol (for example, variable display) The variable display is performed on all of the left, middle, and right display areas in the device 9, and the variable display is always performed in a state where the same symbols are aligned), which is the reach display mode or reach.

  In addition, during the reach, an unusual performance is performed with a lamp or sound. The effect and the reach display mode in the variable display device 9 are called reach effects. Further, in the case of reach, a character (an effect display imitating a person or the like, which is different from a design (decoration design etc.)) or a background display mode (for example, color) of the variable display device 9 is displayed. May be changed.

Member attribute information including personal information other than “address” is acquired from the member management computer 120 of the game arcade and is automatically registered (stored), so that the trouble of inputting these attribute information can be saved. If the player is not a game hall member, that is, if there is no input to the “game hall name” and “member ID”, the “sex”, “postal code”, “address”, “phone number”, etc. The input of detailed attribute information such as is mandatory.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 10 (d), a player (guest) inputs a “game hall name” and a “member ID” and selects “next” as shown in FIG. 10 (e). A registration information confirmation page is distributed, and a list of input information including a name, a reading, an e-mail address, a game hall name of the input game hall, and a member ID is displayed on the page. When the player selects “Registration” provided on the page after confirming the display content, the site member ID assigned to the player (guest) is already registered in the site member information table. The site member ID is specified so as not to overlap with the existing site member ID, and the member attribute information displayed on the page is stored in the site member information table in association with the specified site member ID.

  Then, in response to the completion of storage in the site member information table, the registration completion page shown in FIG. The registration completion page is provided with a menu for downloading a plug-in module program required for special access, which will be described later, as shown in FIG. 10 (f). By selecting and downloading the plug-in module program from the site server 116 and storing it in advance, the plug-in module program gives a special access to the site member ID given by the member registration. At this time, it is stored in a predetermined storage area so that it can be used.

  That is, in the member registration acceptance process performed by the CPU 182 of the present embodiment using the processing program, registration of an e-mail address is accepted from a player who possesses the mobile phone 400, and the CPU 182 that performs the member registration acceptance process performs the main registration. An e-mail address registration accepting means in the invention is formed.

  A flow in which the player who has registered as a member in the site in this way browses the model information registered in the site will be described below with reference to FIGS.

  That is, the site server 116 distributes a login page to the mobile phone 400 that has accessed, thereby acquiring a site member ID that is player identification information in the present invention.

  Then, it is determined whether or not the registration of the site member ID accepted on the login page exists in the site member information table, and if it exists, the site member information corresponding to the accepted password and the site member ID is determined. An authentication process for determining whether or not the password stored in the table matches is executed.

  That is, in the authentication process performed by the CPU 182 according to the present embodiment using the processing program, the login page is distributed along with the access from the mobile phone 400 (arbitrary access), whereby the player is individually received from the mobile phone 400. A site member ID serving as identifiable player identification information is acquired.

  If authentication is OK in the authentication process, the site member ID is associated with the IP address of the mobile phone 400 assigned to the transmission data from the mobile phone 400, and temporarily stored as session management information. Then, a member's My Page (refer to FIG. 11A and FIG. 12A) specified from the site member ID is generated and distributed.

  As shown in FIG. 11A, the My Page of this embodiment includes “model information”, “hall information”, “industry news”, “truth truth”, “column”, “Pachipro Q & A”. , “Mail Magazine”, “My Page”, “Glossary”, “Ranking”, “Entertainment World” content menus are provided, from which the player (member) selects the desired menu Thus, each page in the site linked to these menus is distributed based on the processing program of the storage device 184 of the site server 116.

  When the player selects an item of “model information” on this My Page, as shown in FIG. 11B, “new model information”, “model search”, “practical data”, and “installed shop search” are displayed. A submenu page including each submenu is distributed from the site server 116 and displayed.

  When the “new model information” submenu is selected from among the submenus on the submenu page shown in FIG. 11B, as shown in FIG. The model names of the latest 10 pachinko machines registered (stored) in the pachinko machine data table (see FIG. 7A) (model IDs are given in the order of registration), and the pachislot machine data table A model selection page in which the model names of the latest ten slot machines registered (stored) in (see FIG. 7B) are displayed in a list so as to be selectable is generated by the site server 116 and distributed. Is done.

  In the model selection page shown in FIG. 11C, when the player selects, for example, “CRΔΔΔ”, the site server 116 selects “CRΔΔ” based on the selection. “△△” is specified, and it is specified from each unit data stored in the above-mentioned pachinko machine data table and the path data to the table image data corresponding to the specified model name “CR △△△”. The player image data is read out, and a new model information page shown in FIG. 11D is generated and distributed, so that the player can check the model information of the selected “CRΔΔΔ”. Even when the player selects the model name of the slot, for example, “00xx”, the model name is identified as “00xx” as in the case of the pachinko machine, and the identified model name “ In response to “00xx”, a new model information page is generated and distributed, including each table data stored in the above-mentioned pachislot table data table and the table image data specified from the path data to the table image data. .

  When the “model search” submenu is selected on the submenu page shown in FIG. 12B (same as FIG. 11B described above), as shown in FIG. The site server 116 displays a search menu selection page in which the items “1) Pachinko machine type search”, “(2) Pachislot machine type search” item, and “(3) Simple model name search” item can be selected and operated. Delivered from.

  In this search menu selection page, the player (member) may select the item “(1) Pachinko machine search” when the game machine to be searched is a pachinko machine. If the machine is a slot machine, the item “(2) Pachislot model search” may be selected. In addition, if a part of the model name of the gaming machine to be searched is known, the item “(3) Simple model name search” may be selected.

  In this search menu selection page, if the player selects the item “(1) Pachinko machine type search” because the game machine to be searched is a pachinko machine, for example, the site server 116 is selected based on the selection. Delivers the pachinko machine type search page shown in FIG.

  In the pachinko machine type search page of this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 12 (d), by inputting all or part of the machine name as a search condition, the machine including the inputted name is displayed in the pachinko machine data table. By entering the “model name” input part searched from and the number of each model type of the pachinko machine listed in the pachinko machine search page, it is stored in the pachinko machine data table corresponding to the model type. There are provided “model type” input sections for displaying a list of models that have been registered, and the player can enter a search condition such as “△△△” as part of the model name in these input sections. After entering the “model name” input section, the “search” item provided on the page is selected.

  Based on the selection, the site server 116 specifies that the text (character string) input to the input unit of “model name” is “ΔΔΔ”, and the specified text (character string) “ΔΔΔ”. ”Is searched from the pachinko machine data table, all the lists are extracted, the list of model names extracted is included, and the model name can be selected and operated as shown in FIG. Generate a model search result page and distribute it.

  When the pachinko machine model search result page includes the name of the pachinko machine to be searched, the player selects the model name of the pachinko machine to be searched, for example, “CR △△△” In response to the selected model name “CRΔΔΔ” (corresponding to model D), it is specified from the data stored in the pachinko machine data table and the path data to the machine image data. The model information page shown in FIG. 12F including the base image data is generated and distributed by the site server 116. If there is no model name of the pachinko machine to be searched on the pachinko machine search result page, the item “to the corner TOP” provided at the bottom of the page is selected, so that FIG. The search menu selection page of c) is distributed again and the search menu selection page is returned to, so that other search methods can be selected. By selecting the item “to TOP”, the search menu selection page shown in FIG. The member top page (same as FIG. 11 (a)) is distributed again so that it can return to the member top page, and these “to corner TOP” and “to TOP” are other pages. Are also provided in the same manner, and by selecting these items, it is possible to shift to the same page.

  In the above-mentioned search menu selection page, for example, when the player selects the item “(2) Pachislot machine type search”, it is the same as the pachinko machine type search page, and the search condition includes all model names or By inputting a part, a model including the input name is searched from the pachislot base data table, a “model name” input unit, and each slot machine listed in the pachislot model search page There is a "model type" input section that displays a list of models stored in the pachislot base data table corresponding to the model type by entering the model type number. The search is performed based on the input search conditions, and a pachislot machine model search result page similar to the pachinko machine model search result page shown in FIG. A list of model names of the searched pachislot machines is displayed so that it can be selected, and by selecting a model name to be searched from the model name list, a model information page for the selected model name is generated and distributed. The

  In addition, when the player selects, for example, the item “(3) Simple model search” on the search menu selection page described above, an input unit of “model type” on the pachinko machine search page or the pachislot machine search page. A simple model search page (not shown) having only a “model name” input section that does not have an ID is distributed, and at least one of the model names of gaming machines to be searched is input to the “model name” input section of the simple model search page. By inputting a part, a simple model search result page similar to the pachinko machine search result page shown in FIG. 12 (e) described above, in which a corresponding model is searched and displayed, is distributed. By selecting a model name to be searched from the page model name list, a model information page of the selected model name is generated and distributed.

  When these model information pages are distributed, the data of the first access information in the access information table corresponding to the site member ID temporarily stored as session information in association with the IP address of the distribution destination of the model information page If the model corresponding to the distributed model information page is, for example, the model corresponding to the distributed model information page is model D, the first access information update process for updating the data corresponding to model D to “1” is performed. carry out.

  In other words, in the first access information update process performed by the CPU 182 of the present embodiment by the processing program, it corresponds to the site member ID acquired from the mobile phone 400 in the authentication process, and corresponds to the model corresponding to the provided model information. By updating and storing the data “0” to “1”, the site member ID, which is the player identification information of the player who performed the primary access (optional access), and the primary access (optional access) are accepted. In addition, the model corresponding to the model information provided in response to the primary access (arbitrary access) is associated by data “1” of the first access information corresponding to the model serving as the model identification information that can be specified. The arbitrary access reception storage means in the present invention is formed by the CPU 182 that performs the first access information update process. Together they are any access receiving storage step is formed in the present invention by the first access information update process.

  Thus, for example, the player can access the site and acquire the model information of the model he / she wants to play at the game hall on that day, that is, the model information of the model he is interested in.

  In this way, when a player plays a pachinko machine 1 of a model for which model information has been acquired in advance, after the big hit is generated by the game, the pachinko machine 1 As shown in FIG. 2, the two-dimensional barcode is displayed on the variable display device 9.

  Specifically, the production control microcomputer mounted on the production control board 80 of the pachinko machine 1 performs a two-dimensional barcode generation process to generate a two-dimensional barcode that is displayed on the variable display device 9. .

  In the two-dimensional barcode generation process of this embodiment, the production control microcomputer uses the time stamp data composed of the time information output from the RTC 81, the model ID of the pachinko machine 1, the special access URL, Is generated, and the generated two-dimensional bar code is displayed on the variable display device 9 for a predetermined time at the end of the big hit end effect.

  That is, the production control board 80 (production control microcomputer) of the present embodiment displays the two-dimensional barcode serving as the special access information according to the present invention in accordance with the end of the big hit state that satisfies the predetermined condition. The special access information output means in the present invention is formed by the effect control board 80 and the variable display device 9.

  In response to the display of the two-dimensional barcode, the player captures the two-dimensional barcode by imaging the displayed two-dimensional barcode with an imaging unit 465 mounted on the mobile phone 400, as shown in FIG. Read (input) barcode.

  The image of the two-dimensional barcode imaged in this way by the imaging unit 465 is output to the control unit 455 (CPU), and the control unit 455 (CPU) executes the decoding program stored in the memory unit 460. As a result, the time stamp data encoded in the two-dimensional barcode, the model ID, and the special access URL are decoded.

  That is, the cellular phone 400 of this embodiment includes an imaging unit 465 for inputting a two-dimensional barcode serving as special access information in the present invention, and the special access information input means in the present invention is provided by the imaging unit 465. Is formed.

  The two-dimensional bar code of this embodiment also includes start-up data indicating that a specific plug-in module program downloaded in advance for member registration to the site is used for access using the decrypted special access URL. By encoding and decoding the activation data, a specific form of HTTP request is transmitted to the site server 116 by using a specific plug-in module program, and special access is performed. .

  That is, the control unit 455 (CPU) that has decoded the two-dimensional barcode accesses the site in a form in which a specific plug-in module program is enabled based on the activation data included in the decoded data of the two-dimensional barcode. The browser includes a special access URL included in the decrypted data, and a function by executing a specific plug-in module program, so that the site member ID of the player and the time included in the decrypted data are An HTTP request including stamp data and model ID is generated and transmitted to the site server 116.

  In response to the reception of this HTTP request, the site server 116 (CPU 182) performs a request analysis process for analyzing the received HTTP request, and extracts the site member ID, model ID, and time stamp data specified by the analysis.

  That is, in the request analysis process performed by the CPU 182 of the present embodiment based on the processing program, the site member ID that becomes the player identification information in the present invention from the HTTP request transmitted from the mobile phone 400 with the special access, The model ID that is model identification information and the time stamp data that is the special access identification information are extracted and acquired, and the CPU 182 that performs the request analysis process forms the player identification information acquisition means in the present invention. At the same time, the player identification information acquisition step in the present invention is formed by the request analysis processing.

  Based on whether or not the site member ID extracted in the request analysis process exists in the site member information table, it is determined whether or not the player who has made a special access is a player registered as a member on the site. judge.

  In this determination, if the site member ID does not exist, that is, if the player who has made special access is not registered as a member in the site, in order to provide a service by special access, the member registration is performed on the site and the game A member registration guide page including the fact that it is necessary to browse the model information of the model being used and the URL of the top page of the member registration on the site is urged to register the member.

  On the other hand, if the site member ID exists in the determination, that is, if the player who has made a special access is registered as a member on the site, the identification is made from the model ID extracted from the received HTTP request by the request analysis process described above. A determination process for determining whether or not the first access information for the model to be used by the site member ID exists is performed. Specifically, whether or not the data corresponding to the model specified from the extracted model ID is “1” indicating browsing in the first access information corresponding to the site member ID in the access information table. judge.

  That is, in the determination process performed by the CPU 182 of the present embodiment based on the processing program, it corresponds to the site member ID serving as the player identification information acquired in the request analysis process serving as the player identification information acquisition means in the present invention. In addition, the data “1”, which is the first access information of the model corresponding to the model ID acquired in the request analysis process, is the access information table in the first access information update process serving as the arbitrary access reception storage unit of the present invention. In other words, in other words, it is arbitrary access reception specifying information in association with the site member ID (player identification information) acquired in the request analysis process as the player identification information acquisition means. It is determined whether “1” data as the first access information and the model as the model identification information are stored. , Together with the determination means is formed in the present invention by CPU182 implementing the determination process, the determination step is formed in the present invention by the determination process.

  If the first access information does not exist in the determination, the URL of the login page of the site and the model of the model of the pachinko machine 1 that is playing by accessing the site of the URL for providing services by special access A guide page serving as guide information in the present invention including the need to browse information is distributed. The guide page is provided with a menu for acquiring dedicated content for users without access, and by selecting this menu, the player can obtain dedicated content for users without access from the site server 116. You can get it.

  On the other hand, if the first access information exists in the determination, the time stamp data is extracted from the received HTTP request, and the time stamp data is associated with the site member ID extracted from the received HTTP request. The previous provision ID determination process for determining whether or not the data is the same as the data stored in the previous provision ID is performed.

  And when it is a determination result that it is the same in the previous provided ID determination process, it is determined that the access is duplicated due to the duplicate use of the decoded data of the two-dimensional barcode displayed on the variable display device 9. Then, the process is interrupted, an error page (not shown) including duplicate access is distributed, and if it is a determination result that they are not the same, the extracted time stamp data is updated and stored in the last provided ID, Provided content identification processing for identifying the type of content that is a service to be provided is performed.

  Specifically, in the provided content specifying process, it is specified from the model ID extracted from the received HTTP request in the data of the service provision count in the access information table in association with the site member ID extracted from the received HTTP request. The service provision count of the model is specified, and the content type corresponding to the specified service provision count is specified based on the provided content specifying data (see FIG. 8B). For example, if the service provision number of the model is once as in the model D, such as a player whose site member ID is 0001-01-00001, the standby content b of the model is specified as the provided content as the provided content. .

  Then, the provided content specified in the provided content specifying process, for example, the file of the standby content b of the model is read from the storage device 184 and distributed to the mobile phone 400 of the player. The distributed standby content b is displayed on the mobile phone 400.

  After distributing the provided content, the site server 116 (CPU 182) adds 1 to the service provision count of the model specified in the provided content specifying process, and the service provision count is “0” by the addition. Only when the number is changed from “1” to “1”, 1 is added to the number of service provision models and updated, and the number of new service provision models after the update is shown in each item of the present gift data shown in FIG. In order to determine whether or not the present value has been reached and notify the player that it is possible to apply for a present gift corresponding to the reached value, and to apply for the present gift A service providing mail transmission process for transmitting the service providing mail to the electronic mail address of the player is performed.

  That is, in the provided content distribution process and the service providing mail transmission process performed by the CPU 182 of the present embodiment based on the processing program, it is determined that the first access information is stored in the determination process serving as a determination unit in the present invention. Provided content distribution service specified by the provided content identification process, which is a predetermined service, and a service providing email transmission service for applying for gifts are provided. The service providing means in the present invention is formed by the CPU 182 for executing the processing and the service providing mail transmission process, and the service providing step in the present invention is formed by the provided content distribution process and the service providing mail transmitting process. .

  Further, in the provided content distribution processing of the present embodiment that constitutes the service providing means in the present invention, the service provision count (special access count) counted by the service provision count in the access information table serving as the special access count counting means in the present invention. Provided content (service) according to

  Further, in the service providing mail transmission process of the present embodiment that constitutes the service providing means in the present invention, according to the number of models counted by the number of service providing models in the access information table serving as the service providing model number counting means in the present invention. A service providing email sending service for applying for free gifts has been implemented.

  When the player who has received the service providing mail in this way wants a present gift, the player can receive the present gift by sending a reply mail in which information such as a delivery destination described in the service providing mail is input. Application can be easily implemented, and it will be possible to receive a service of providing gifts.

  Next, a new model registration process performed by the site server 116 when registering model information of a new model at the site of this embodiment will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

  Note that the model information of these new models is implemented by uploading the model information of the new models from a management computer (not shown) installed in the gaming machine manufacturer that operates the site server 116.

  First, when the management computer performs an upload operation of model information of a new model, the site server 116 first accepts (receives) file data of the model information of the new model (S1), and then accepts it. The file data of the received model information of the new model is stored in the storage device 184.

  Then, the process proceeds to step S3, where it is determined whether or not the type of the new model received (received) is pachinko. If the type is pachinko, the model ID of each new model and each unit data, While storing the path data to the table image data file and the like and updating the pachinko table data table (FIG. 7A) (S4), if the type is not a pachinko but a slot machine, the new data The model ID of each model, each unit data, the path data to the table image data file, etc. are stored, and the pachislot table data table (FIG. 7B) is updated (S5).

  Then, the process proceeds to step S6, and a new model registration notification e-mail for notifying a player registered as a member of the site by e-mail that the model information of the new model has been registered and the site has been updated. Perform transmission processing.

  Specifically, in the new model registration notification email transmission process of the present embodiment, a new model registration notification email including main information such as the model name and type of the model newly registered on the site, and the base image is generated. The generated new model registration notification e-mail is transmitted to the e-mail address of each site member registered in the site member information table.

  That is, in the new model registration notification mail transmission process performed by the CPU 182 of the present embodiment based on the processing program, the electronic mail according to the present invention is added in response to the addition of the model information of the new model as provided information to the site. A new model registration notification mail (update mail) for notifying that new model information has been added is transmitted to the e-mail address stored in the site member information table serving as the address storage means. The update mail transmission means in the present invention is formed by the CPU 182 that executes the model registration notification mail transmission processing.

  As described above, according to the present embodiment, access to the data of each model corresponding to each site member ID serving as the arbitrary access reception specifying information by the first access (arbitrary access) in the access information table (arbitrary access reception storage means) ( When the data “1” indicating “browsing” is stored, various provided contents as a predetermined service are provided, so that the player can receive various provided contents. Since it is necessary to voluntarily access the site prior to the implementation of special access by obtaining a two-dimensional barcode as special access information, it is possible to provide motivation for accessing the site and to access the site However, in order to receive the various provided contents (predetermined services), the pachinko machine 1 that is a gaming machine is used. Since the implemented game it is necessary to obtain a special access information Te, it is possible to obtain a synergistic effect of the motivation for the actual game in the pachinko machine 1 can be implemented to the player.

  In addition, according to the present embodiment, since a guide page serving as guide information is distributed, a player who has made a special access without any access, for example, the site server 116 needs to be accessed arbitrarily to provide a predetermined service. By providing a guide page, a player who does not know that there is a site or a player who does not know the existence of the site (site server 116) can be made to first access (arbitrary access) to the site (site server 116). As a result, the number of accesses to the site (site server 116) can be increased.

  Further, according to the present embodiment, when a game is executed with a model corresponding to the model information provided in advance at the site (site server 116) by performing the first access, the predetermined access corresponding to the model is performed. Since services are provided, it is possible to motivate players to play more models.

  In addition, according to the present embodiment, a new model registration notification e-mail is transmitted to the site member, so that the player can be quickly notified that the model information of the new model has been added. Players will be able to receive the model information of the new model on the site in advance before acquiring the two-dimensional bar code, which is special access information, from the new model of the gaming machine. The provided content (predetermined service) corresponding to the new model can be received.

  Further, according to the present embodiment, a service provision for providing a predetermined service according to the number of models counted in the number of service provision models in the access information table, specifically, a present gift according to the number of models. Since the mail is transmitted, the player can be motivated to play more models.

  In addition, according to the present embodiment, provided content (service) according to the number of times of service provision of the access information table, that is, the number of times of special access by obtaining a two-dimensional barcode (special access information) is provided. The player can be motivated to play repeatedly in the pachinko machine 1.

  Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described with reference to the drawings, the specific configuration is not limited to these embodiments, and modifications and additions within the scope of the present invention are included in the present invention. It is.

  For example, in the above-described embodiment, the first access information in the access information table is updated (reset) to “0” once a day at a predetermined time of the day to update (reset) the data corresponding to all models. Although processing for considering that there is no information of one access is performed, the present invention is not limited to this, and the stored data of “1” for each model, which is information of the first access The first access information corresponding to the model is provided on the condition that the provided content is provided by receiving the HTTP request in the special access including the model ID corresponding to the model and the site member ID. The first access information erasure process for updating the content to “0” may be performed. By doing so, every time the provided content is provided, that is, a predetermined service Since viewing the model information by accessing the site for each offer required, it is possible to increase the number of access to the site.

  In other words, in the embodiment for performing the first access information erasing process, the CPU 182 provides the provided content serving as the predetermined service in the present invention in the provided content distribution process serving as the service providing means in the present invention. When providing the provided content by updating “1”, which is the storage of the first access information in the access information table, corresponding to the site member ID (player identification information) and the model, the present invention It is assumed that there is no first access information (data of “1”) that is the arbitrary access reception specifying information that is the object of determination in the determination process that is the determination means in the first access information deletion process. The CPU 182 that performs the processing forms the invalidating means in claim 6 of the present invention. .

  Further, in the embodiment and the form in which the first access information erasing process is performed, the process of updating the stored data of “1” of each model to “0” as the process of assuming that the information of the first access is absent. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the provision of a predetermined service was performed by special access corresponding to the stored data of “1” of each model of the first access. The process of separately storing flag data indicating the first access information may be implemented as a process that considers that there is no information on the first access. What is necessary is just to select suitably according to the memory | storage form etc. of the information of 1 access.

  Moreover, in the said Example, although the site member ID acquired at the time of login from the mobile telephone 400 (mobile terminal) of the player who accessed is used as player identification information of this invention, this invention is used. The player identification information is not limited to this, and any player identification information may be used as long as it can identify individual players. For example, the site of this embodiment is operated by a carrier that provides the mobile phone 400 service. In the case of an official site, the HTTP request received by the site server 116 includes a customer ID uniquely assigned to each mobile phone 400 in the carrier. It may be information, and moreover, it is given to each mobile phone 400 stored in each mobile phone 400 as a wireless device. And acquires the device ID that is 憶 may be utilized as the player identification information.

  In the embodiment, in the access information table serving as the arbitrary access reception storage means of the present invention, it is possible to easily specify the presence or absence of the first access (optional access) for each site member and for each model. Therefore, instead of storing the site member ID of the player who has made the first access for each model, data of “1” indicating that the item of each model corresponding to the site member ID has been accessed is stored. The update storage is used, but the present invention is not limited to this.
