Description

  The present invention relates to a playground system.

  In the amusement arcade, in order to manage the working conditions of the employees, for example, as shown in FIG. 10 of Patent Document 1, the employees are registered in association with the ID of the remote control carried at work, and the remote control ID is assigned to the employee. By receiving the information when an employee performs a task, the employee who has performed the task is specified.

JP-A-09-140894

  By the way, at the amusement arcade, a single employee alone cannot cope with the duties of the entire amusement arcade. Therefore, a corner is provided for each of the employees corresponding to a game island or the like, and the duties are mainly assigned to the responsible corner. If work is concentrated in other corners other than the corner in charge, work is temporarily performed in other corners. Such employees should be valued, as they will keep the venue running smoothly. On the other hand, some employees leave other employees to take measures that are difficult to start immediately, such as gaming machines that are close to themselves, for example, to shorten the average call time, or due to negligence in their work. If such measures are taken, it is difficult to keep the game hall open smoothly, but there is a risk that the employees who cause such problems will be highly evaluated because the average calling time and the like are shortened.

  However, in the conventional system, employees were not evaluated in consideration of the corner in charge, so it was difficult to perform an appropriate evaluation according to the degree of contribution to the smooth sales of the game arcade.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide a game arcade system that can appropriately evaluate an employee in consideration of a corner in charge of the employee.

  According to the first aspect of the present invention, since the assigned process is managed separately from the non-assigned process, the employee can be appropriately evaluated in consideration of the assigned group (assigned corner) of the employee.

(1st Embodiment)
A first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.
FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing an overall configuration of a game arcade system. A large number of gaming machines 1 are installed in the amusement arcade, and a gaming device 2 and an information display device 3 (accepting means) are installed as peripheral devices corresponding to each gaming machine 1 on a one-to-one basis. The gaming machine 1, the gaming device 2, and the information display device 3 are connected to the relay device 4, and the two gaming machines 1, the two gaming devices 2, and the two information display devices 3 become one relay device 4. It is relayed by. The relay device 4 is connected via the LAN 5 to the management device 6 (group means, assigned group setting means, correspondence processing specifying means, management means, notification means, period specifying means, correspondence means, setting means, first evaluation means, second evaluation means, Evaluation means, work period specifying means, efficiency management means, exclusion means, apportioning means, number of employees specifying means, average information specifying means, setting means).

  At the amusement arcade, an island end counting device (hereinafter, counting device) 7 (receiving means, medium receiving means), a prize exchange device (hereinafter, POS) 8 (receiving means, medium receiving means), and a balance adjusting machine (not shown) are also installed. And is connected to the management device 6 via the LAN 5. The POS 8 can be possessed by the player by being read by a reader such as an attached scanner (not shown) or the like, and can record a paper count receipt or an IC card 9 which can specify the acquired value which is the game value acquired by the player. The medium is received, and a prize exchange process is executed based on the game value specified by the received recording medium. When the IC card 9 is inserted, the balance settlement machine reads the deposit balance recorded on the IC card 9 and returns the balance to collect the IC card 9. In the POS 8, at the start and end of work, an employee ID is input by an employee ID card or operation input to specify a corresponding period.

  The management device 6 is installed, for example, in an office or the like in the game arcade, and is connected to a keyboard 10, a monitor 11, a printer (not shown), and the like, which are operated by an administrator of the game arcade. When the computer operates according to the program, the management device 6 controls the game data (out, safe, the number of jackpots indicating the number of jackpots generated in the game machine 1, the number of start, the number of start, Operating time indicating the operating time of the server). In the amusement arcade, for example, several hundred gaming machines 1 including so-called pachislot machines are installed, and are managed by the management device 6, respectively.

  The gaming machine 1 is a CR (card reader) pachinko machine, which has an operation handle 13, an upper tray 14, and a lower tray 15, which constitute a firing device for firing a ball on the board 12, and has a liquid crystal display section 16, The game has a winning port 17, a first starting port 18, a second starting port 19, and a special winning port 20.

  The first opening 18 is a winning opening (so-called navel winning opening) in which the winning rate does not fluctuate, and the second starting opening 19 is a winning opening (so-called electric chew) in which the winning rate fluctuates. A jackpot lottery is performed in accordance with a prize (start prize) in each of the starting ports 18 and 19, and the lottery result is notified by a symbol change performed on the liquid crystal display unit 16, and a big hit is made according to the change result. When a winning start is made during a symbol change, the symbol changes are cumulatively held up to a predetermined holding upper limit value (for example, four each), and the held symbol changes are started after the symbol changes are completed. In addition, if the start winning is made in a state where the number of held symbol variations (the number of held symbols) is the upper limit, the symbol variations are not held.

  The winning probability (big hit probability) of the big hit lottery is 1/360, and the probability of the big hit being the big hit (probable big hit) at which the big hit becomes the probable change state (probable change) is 66.6% (both the normal state and the probable change state). It is. When a big hit occurs, the special winning opening 20 is opened for 15 rounds (R). Note that the upper limit winning number of 1R is 10 and the upper limit opening time is 30 seconds, and 1R is ended when either the upper limit winning number or the upper limit opening time is satisfied.

  During the probable change, the jackpot probability is increased to 1/31 and the winning rate to the second starting port 19 is increased to a time saving state (hour saving, Amanaka). In addition, since the probability change continues until the next big hit, after the big hit, the big game (normal big hit) which becomes the normal game state (normal state) which is neither the big hit nor the certainty change occurs, and thereafter, a predetermined number (for example, 100 times) ), The time-saving state is reached until the symbol changes, and then the normal state.

  The second starting port 19 is in an open state where the winning rate is high when a normal symbol (normal figure) that fluctuates according to a prize in the general figure winning port 17 is hit. In this case, the fluctuation time for one time in the normal state is 30 seconds in the normal state and 3 seconds in the time reduction state. The opening time is 0.3 seconds in the normal state and 5 seconds in the time saving state. That is, in the time-saving state, the normal figure fluctuation time is shorter than in the normal state, while the opening time is longer, so that the winning rate of the second starting port 19 is higher.

The following signals are output from the gaming machine along with the game.
Out signal = a signal (operation signal) that can specify the consumption value (out) output from the out box that collects consumed balls. Since one pulse is output for every 10 consumed (used, driven, collected) balls, “out signal number × 10” is specified as out. Note that a signal output from the gaming machine 1 may be used.

  Safe signal = a signal output from the gaming machine 1 and capable of specifying a prize awarded value (safe). Since one pulse is output for 10 payout balls, “the number of safe signals × 10” is specified as safe. The replenishment signal output from the replenishing device may be a safe signal.

  Start signal = a signal that is output from the gaming machine 1 and that can specify a start process (symbol change, operation of an accessory, a unit game) in the liquid crystal display unit 16 (accessory) that changes (operates) due to a winning start. It is output when the symbol change is determined, and the symbol change is specified in accordance with the signal input. Therefore, “the number of start signals × 1” is specified as the number of starts. In addition, it is good also as a signal which shows that each starting port 18 and 19 was won.

Jackpot signal = a signal output from the gaming machine 1 that can specify a jackpot period. Since the status signal is a level signal output during the big hit, the signal during the big hit signal input is specified as the big hit (special state).
Special state signal = a signal output from the gaming machine 1 that can specify a special game state. Since the state signal is a level signal output during a special game state in which the winning rate of the second starting port 19 is improved (during a reduced working time, during a short time), the special game signal input is specified as being in the special game state. Of course, the signal may be output during the probability change. Further, a period in which neither the jackpot signal nor the special state signal is input is specified as a normal state.

  The gaming device 2 includes a state display unit 21 that indicates a current operation state (a normal state, an error state, and the like), a coin insertion slot 22 into which money such as bills and coins is inserted, an operation input from a player, and a game operation. Touch panel type liquid crystal display unit 23 that displays game data such as the number of symbol changes (number of starts) and big hit probability as the game progresses, and a payout for paying out a ball (game value) for one unit (equivalent to 500 yen). It has a button 24, a payout nozzle 25 through which the paid out ball passes, a card insertion slot 26 into which the IC card 9 is inserted, and the like.

  The gaming machine 2 includes a control unit including a microcomputer having a CPU, a ROM, a RAM, and an HDD. When a currency is accepted (money accepting process), the amount of money received by both the gaming machine 1 and the gaming machine 2 becomes a balance. When the lending button of the gaming machine 1 is pressed (lending operation, granting operation) in a state in which there is a balance, a lending ball (game value) for one lending unit (for example, 500 yen) is paid out from the gaming machine 1. (The granting process), and the consideration is deducted from the balance. In addition, the money can receive the corresponding amount (for example, up to 10,000 yen) of the application processing for a plurality of times. When the payout from the gaming machine 1 is performed, a payout request signal capable of specifying the number of balls to be paid out is output from the gaming machine 2 to the gaming machine 1, and the gaming machine 1 is output in response to the input of the payout request signal. Is paid out.

  When the return button of the gaming machine 1 is pressed (accepting the issuance operation) in a state where the balance remains, an IC card 9 capable of specifying the balance (remaining money value) is issued, and the issuance information is managed by the management device 6. When the IC card 9 is received, the balance is taken in and taken over.

  The gaming device 2 receives the money receiving process and the granting process, the balance, the number of borrowed balls, the number of refund balls, the deposit amount, the number of borrowed balls and the sales amount to be considered for the borrowed balls by serial communication with the relay device 4, and the IC card 9. Various kinds of information such as reception and issuance processing can be specified, but what kind of game signal is specified, such as specifying these with pulse signals (for example, one pulse for every 1000 yen of deposit, one pulse for every 100 yen of sales, etc.) It may be adopted and specified. It should be noted that the above-described communication in the lending process may be performed directly between the gaming machine 1 and the gaming device 2 without going through the relay device 4.

  The information display device 3 includes a data display unit 27, a plurality of operation switch units 28, and the like. The data display section 27 displays various information such as game information totalized based on signals input from the gaming machine 1. The plurality of operation switches 28 are operated to switch the display contents of the data display unit 27, or to allow a player to call an employee of a game arcade.

  The counting device 7 is a device for counting the number of balls obtained by the player in the gaming machine 1, and is installed at the edge of the gaming machine island. That is, in order to count the balls obtained by the player, it is necessary to store the balls in a ball box and carry them to the counting device 7 for counting.

  2 and 3 show perspective views of the counting device 7. FIG. The counting device 7 includes a ball insertion port 29 (shown only in FIG. 2) for receiving a ball (acquisition medium) obtained by the player through the game, and a slide cover 30 for opening and closing the ball insertion port 29 (FIG. 2 shows a slide cover). FIG. 3 shows a state in which the slide cover 30 is slid to an open position for opening the ball insertion port 29, and FIG. 3 shows a state in which the slide cover 30 is slid to a closed position for closing the ball insertion port 29). Processing transmitted from a touch-panel type liquid crystal display unit 31 having a display function of displaying various information and an input receiving function of receiving an operation input from an employee or a player, and an employee remote controller (hereinafter, remote controller) 36 (transmission means) Receiving unit 32 (receiving means, non-unit receiving means, first receiving means, second receiving means) for receiving a signal, a count value, a two-dimensional code or a barcode recording the count value, or the like An issuing port 33 for issuing a printed recording medium, a membership card receiving port 34 for receiving a member card, and an employee IC card (storage medium) (not shown) carried by an employee in a state where the employee IC card (not shown) is overshaded. An employee IC card reader 35 (receiving means, medium receiving means) for reading the recorded employee information, a tobacco counting ball slot 37 provided on the front of the counting device 7, and a ball return port 38 for returning surplus balls. And a slide cover opening / closing key 39 for opening and closing the slide cover 30 in an emergency (FIGS. 2 and 3 show a state where the cover is closed).

  The slide cover 30 is locked by a locking portion (not shown) arranged in front of the ball insertion port 29, and when unlocked on the condition of employee authentication by an employee, counting processing can be performed. The employee authentication is performed by the employee holding the employee IC card over the employee IC card reader 35 or operating the remote controller 36. When the employee is unlocked by the employee authentication, the slide cover 30 is opened. The ball is moved to the open position shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 2, the intake port 40 provided at the bottom of the ball insertion port 29 is closed by a shutter 41 that can be opened and closed by a solenoid or the like. Becomes When a ball is thrown into the ball slot 29, the ball received by the ball slot 29 falls from the intake port 40 and a counting sensor (not shown) provided at the back of the intake port 40 detects the ball. Then, a counting timer (for example, 2 seconds) is operated. When the count timer expires, an issue button is displayed on the liquid crystal display unit 31 as an operation display, and an issuance process is performed in which a recording medium whose count value can be specified in accordance with the operation is issued. After the counting is completed, an employee ID, a remote control ID (reception ID), and the like authenticated as the counted value and the like are transmitted to the management device 6.

  When a cover sensor (not shown) detects that the slide cover 30 is closed after the above-described issuance processing, the locking portion is locked and the shutter 41 of the intake port 40 is also closed. Is received again, continuous counting in which the counting process is performed again and then the issuing process is performed is also possible. That is, in the open state of the slide cover 30, the authentication state is continued until the slide cover 30 is closed once the employee authentication is performed in order to eliminate the trouble of performing authentication when performing the continuous counting, and the continuous counting is possible. It has become.

  A normal operation mode similar to the conventional operation mode is set on the remote controller 36. In the operation mode, a processing signal corresponding to an operation or input to each device (a processing operation that is an operation when a corresponding process is performed) is transmitted, and the processing signal is transmitted to each of the gaming device 2 and the information display device 3. It is possible to receive at the terminal (each receiving means, second receiving means).

  That is, the information display device 3 has a function of a so-called call lamp as described above, enters a call state in response to a call operation such as pressing a call button by a player, and notifies that the employee is being called. When the employee receiving the notification performs a call end operation for terminating the call state by remote control operation, information indicating the call end and the remote control ID is transmitted to the information display device 3, and the information display receiving the information is performed. The device 3 transmits information indicating that to the management device 6.

  Similarly, the gaming machine 2 can receive the processing from the remote controller 36 and the information indicating the remote controller ID, and when the information is received, transmits information indicating that to the management apparatus 6. It should be noted that the paging state of the information display device 3 may be released in the gaming device 2 or the paging state may be set in conjunction with the paging state of the information display device 3.

  Now, in addition to the normal operation mode described above, a registration mode for associating the employee ID of the employee using the remote controller 36 with the remote controller ID of the remote controller 36 is set in the remote controller 36. . In the registration mode, non-each terminal (not receiving unit, non-each unit receiving unit, first receiving unit, second receiving unit) that does not correspond to each gaming machine 1 (each unit) such as the counting device 7, the POS 8, or a registration-only terminal Means) is the operation target.

  FIG. 4 is a front view of the remote controller 36. The remote controller 36 includes a display unit 42, a numeric keypad 43, a "clear" button 44, an "FNC" button 45, a "start" button 46, an "end" button 47, a "confirm" button 48, a "call off" button 49, A "wire release" button 50, a "wire lock" button 51 and the like are provided.

  The remote controller 36 enters the registration mode when a state change operation is performed in the operation mode (for example, when the “clear” button 44 is long-pressed (pressed for two seconds or more)), and in the registration mode, When the operation is performed, the employee ID and the remote control ID are associated with each other.

  That is, when a predetermined start operation (“FNC” button 45 → “Start” button 46 is pressed) is performed after inputting the employee ID individually assigned to each employee in advance using the numeric keypad 43, the remote control 36 The employee ID input to the remote controller 36, the own remote controller ID, and information (registration signal, ID signal) indicating that the start operation has been performed are transmitted to the mobile terminal. The non-each terminal that has received the information transmits the information to that effect to the management device 6. Note that the remote controller 36 switches from the registration mode to the operation mode after the start operation, but the same applies to operations in other registration modes.

  In the registration mode, if a predetermined ending operation (“FNC” button 45 → “End” button 47 is pressed) is performed on each non-device terminal after inputting the employee ID, the non-device terminals that have received the information receive the information. The fact that the association between the employee ID and the remote control ID has been completed is transmitted to the management device 6 in the same manner as at the time of the start operation.

  If a confirmation operation (“FNC” button 45 → “Confirmation” button 48 is pressed) is performed on the non-each terminal in the registration mode, the non-each terminal makes an inquiry to the management device 6 and the inquiry result is obtained. As a result, an employee ID, an employee name, and the like associated with the remote control ID are displayed on the display unit 42.

  In the operation mode, for example, when the player is called by the player, the employee presses the “call off” button 49 or the “wire release” button 50 of the remote controller 36 with respect to the information display device 3 as each terminal, and the employee performs processing. When the corresponding button is pressed, the remote controller ID and information indicating the content corresponding to the button are transmitted to each terminal, and each terminal receiving the information notifies the management device 6 to that effect. Send the indicated information.

  The “wire release” button 50 is a button for releasing a so-called wire lock that suppresses turning and opening the gaming machine 1 with a wire or the like in order to check a control unit or the like on the back surface of the gaming machine 1. is there. The “wire lock” button 51 is a button for terminating the release of the wire lock and locking. Therefore, the period from the pressing of the “wire release” button 50 to the pressing of the “wire locking” button 51 is the opening permitted period of the gaming machine 1.

  Note that signals corresponding to the operation mode can be received at each terminal such as the information display device 3 and the gaming device 2 and non-each terminal such as the counting device 7 and the POS 8. Reception is not possible at each terminal and can be received at non-each terminal. This is based on the intent that the registration process by the employee is performed on non-each terminal in order to make it difficult for the player to see the game. A signal may be accepted. A registration-only terminal may be provided as a non-unit terminal.

The management device 6 can set an association setting in which an employee ID and an employee name are associated with each other by an operation of an administrator.
FIG. 5 shows the association setting. In the association setting, an employee name is set corresponding to an employee ID. In FIG. 5, the employee names are associated with the employee IDs continuous from 0001. However, if an arbitrary employee ID is associated with the employee, it is not always necessary to associate the continuous employee IDs. Of course, an ID may be used.

  In order to start (end) the shift work assigned to the employee, the employee inputs his / her employee ID into the remote controller 36 in the registration mode and then performs the start operation (end operation). A signal (end operation signal) is transmitted to non-each terminal such as the counting device 7. Then, since the non-unit terminals transmit the received remote control ID, employee ID, and start operation (end operation) to the management device 6, the management device 6 manages the association status.

  FIG. 6 shows the correspondence status between the remote control ID and the employee ID according to the start operation and the like. The correspondence status indicates the remote control ID and the employee ID associated with each other when the start operation is received, and the association period indicates the business hours (business period, date and time) from the start operation to the end operation.

  Note that the employee ID indicates the ID of the employee ID card carried by the employee, but if the employee can be associated with the employee ID, the employee ID and the ID of the employee ID card are different IDs. The employee ID card is not necessarily limited to numbers, but may be any information that can identify the employee, such as the employee's name itself. There is no need to adopt the ID of

  In addition, although the example has been described in which the employee ID is input by the start operation and the end operation, the employee ID card is received by the remote controller 36 when the start operation or the like is performed (for example, a proximity IC card is employed). Thus, the employee ID may be automatically input to the remote controller 36. Further, a proximity sensor or the like may be provided on the remote controller 36 or the like, and the remote controller ID or the like may be output to each terminal by approaching each terminal, or information may be input from each terminal.

  By the way, in the case of inputting the operation of the employee ID, since the input is performed by operating the ten keys 43 of the remote controller 36, it is assumed that the input of the employee ID is wrong. In this case, the maintenance device 6 may display a maintenance screen for correcting FIG. 6 to perform the correction by an operation input, or the non-each terminal may perform the correction. For example, when the employee IDs input in the start operation and the end operation are different, the end operation is displayed on the non-each terminal (predetermined notification processing), and the correct ID is re-input or selected. The association may be changed according to.

  Furthermore, when the same employee ID is associated with different remote controller IDs in duplicate, the fact (erroneous input) is displayed on each terminal side when operating both remote controllers 36 (predetermined notification processing). It is desirable to prompt the user to make corrections, but since the service for the player is given priority, it is possible to let the employee recognize the erroneous input by displaying the erroneous input and accept the operation in the registration mode separately It is desirable to change the employee ID at each non-terminal. In other words, if the input operation is incorrect, only the display indicating that the input is incorrect may be made, and the correction may be made separately by the confirmation operation or the like at each non-terminal. In this case, if the employee ID is correct, a confirmation operation for inputting the correctness is performed, and the employee, that is, the remote controller 36 carried by the employee is not displayed with the subsequent erroneous input. The display of the erroneous input may be continued for the employee who has not performed the confirmation operation. Further, when the confirmation operation is performed on both sides, and the fact that there is no mistake is input, the display of the erroneous input is restarted on both remote controllers 36 again, or the other person who has confirmed later has confirmed the other. May be displayed, and if the latter is still correct, the erroneous input may be displayed again only on the other side. In addition, it may be notified that there is an overlap at the time of the start operation.

  When the ID is corrected to the correct ID by any of the above, it is desirable to record the correction time and the incorrectly input ID as shown in FIG. 6 and change the association retroactively from the start operation.

  In the associating period in which the remote controller ID and the employee ID are associated with each other as described above, the management device 6 determines the correspondence status of the employee specified by the remote controller ID from the remote controller 36 received by each terminal. And the like.

  FIG. 7 shows the correspondence history, in which the ID, the count value, and the like of the remote controller 36 that has performed the authentication processing are managed. In the correspondence history, the time (reception time) indicating the pressing time of the call button or the reception time of the remote control ID, the type of the received terminal, the terminal ID, the received remote control ID and the employee ID (operation of the employee ID card and the employee ID) When an input is received, for example), a call time indicating a period from when the call button is pressed to when a remote control ID ("Call OFF" button 49 is pressed) is received, a count value of the acquired value counted by the counting device 7, a count value Manages the number of counting boxes (counting index) specified by, and the issue ID of the recording medium issued by the counting device 7 (manages the comprehensive correspondence information).

  As for the “type of terminal”, the display corresponds to the information display device 3, the counter corresponds to the counter 7, and the POS corresponds to the POS 8, but the table corresponds to the use of the wire lock (the receiving terminal corresponds to the information display device 3). ing. In the case of the POS 8, since the same employee in charge, such as the person in charge of the counter or the person in charge of the counter, operates for a long time, it is not necessary to input the employee ID or operate the remote controller 36 for each exchange process. Instead, by accepting an operation input of the employee ID into the POS 8 or accepting an employee ID card at the start and end of the work, the process in the POS 8 during that period is associated with the employee ID. Further, the period from the reception of the acquired value by the recording medium to the end operation is performed is associated with a corresponding period (calling time), the acquired value processed into the count value and the issue ID, the received recording medium ID, and the issue ID. Is associated with

  Next, the “number of counting boxes” will be described. A corresponding acquisition value type (ball or medal) is associated with the counting device 7 in advance (in FIG. 7, the counting devices 7 of the terminal IDs 1 to 7 are balls, and the counting devices 7 of the terminal IDs 8 to 10 are medals). A count value corresponding to one box (1500 for balls, 700 for medals, setting information) corresponding to the type is set in advance, and a count value corresponding to one box corresponding to the type specified by the ID of the counting device 7. Is specified as the number of boxes (divided by the actual count value), but the number of boxes may be directly input.

  Although not shown, when continuous counting is performed by the counting device 7, it is specified that a plurality of counting processes are performed by the same employee. In addition, for example, when the corresponding process is performed by pressing the call button, the call button is pressed (in this case, the employee ID cannot be specified and the second operation is performed), and thereafter, the operation is performed using the remote controller 36 (in this case, the employee ID is changed). If the employee ID can be specified by performing the first operation (i.e., the first operation can be specified), it is considered that the first operation has been performed by associating the two with each other. The second operation may be accepted.

  The management device 6 creates an employee management form showing the calculation results obtained by sorting the correspondence histories of FIG. 7 by employee for a predetermined aggregation period (for example, one week, one business day, etc.). .

  FIG. 8 is an example of a form in which the correspondence status based on FIG. 7 is tabulated for each item (correspondence type) such as “call counters”, and the number of call counters and the average number of call counters per hour for each employee are to be tabulated. .

  It should be noted that FIG. 7 may be tabulated once per business day (unit period) or the like in the same manner as FIG. 8, and the tabulated result may be stored for the period to be managed, and the history information as shown in FIG. It is not necessary to manage for the period of time. Further, a totaling history of business days may be managed for each employee, and may be output. In the present embodiment, display is exemplified as output, that is, notification, but may be other notification such as printing.

  The “number of times of calling” in FIG. 8 is the number of records for which the calling time is specified in FIG. 7 (that is, the number of times of processing in response to pressing of the calling button by the player, the number of times of corresponding processing, the evaluation index), The “number of times corresponding to the machine” is the number of records in which the terminal corresponds to the number of machines in FIG. The number of records in which the terminal is regarded as the counting device 7 (that is, the number of times that the counting process has been performed, the number of times that the corresponding process has been performed), and the “number of counting boxes” are the total of the number of counting boxes in FIG. The number of boxes, the burden index), the number of prize exchanges in FIG. 7 are the number of records in which the terminal is regarded as the POS 8 (that is, the number of exchange processings, the number of response processings), and the “call release time” is The total value of the call time of the record whose call time is specified in FIG. The total period from the call operation for setting the apparatus 3 to the call state to the call release operation for releasing the call state, the period corresponding to the corresponding process), and the "prize exchange time" is a record in which the terminal is set to POS8 in FIG. (Ie, the total period required for the exchange processing, the period corresponding to the corresponding processing), and the “member registration count” is the number of times the member registration processing was performed by the POS 8 or a member registration terminal (not shown) (the corresponding processing is performed). ) And “business hours” indicate the correspondence period in FIG. 6 (that is, the cumulative period during which the user has been involved in the business) (both correspond to employee-specific correspondence information).

  Here, “call release frequency / time” is the number of call responses / business time (business efficiency information), “vehicle response frequency / time” is the number of vehicle responses / business time (business efficiency information), and “count frequency / time” is Number of counts / working time (working efficiency information), "Number of counting boxes / hour" is the number of counting boxes / working time (working efficiency information), and "number of prize exchanges / hour" means number of prize replacements / working time (business efficiency information) The "average call release time" is the call release time divided by the number of times the call can be handled (that is, the call release time per call), and the "average prize exchange time" is the prize exchange time divided by the number of prize exchanges (that is, the prize exchange per call). Time).

  In the “employee *” column, the name of the corresponding employee is shown. However, “no ID” does not accept the remote control ID or the like, and the processing for which the employee cannot be identified (for example, the signal transmission operation (for the 1 operation), and indicates only the operation of the call button for which the employee ID cannot be specified (the process specified by the second operation), the “excluded total” is the total excluding non-IDs, and the “total sum” is the IDless. The total number of employees, including the number of employees, is calculated by comparing the corresponding item in the target period with the reference value set for that item (in this embodiment, 0), and satisfies the comparison result. The obtained number of employees (in this embodiment, a value exceeding the reference value) and “total average” indicate an average value (average correspondence information) per employee obtained by dividing the total sum by the number of employees. Although not shown, when the reference value is set to a value other than 0, the employee ID is specified, but if there is an employee who has not performed the corresponding process for the reference value, the employee ID is determined. It is desirable to calculate the total average or the like by excluding (not including) the corresponding processing.

  By specifying the average value per employee in this way, the processing for which the employee ID cannot be specified, such as comparing with the numerical value of each employee or calculating the deviation value of the numerical value of each employee, is performed. This allows for a relative evaluation of employees based on consideration.

  Although the number of employees in the target period is exemplified as the "number of employees", if the same employee ID is specified on different business days, the average value is determined by obtaining the total number of employees that would be counted twice. By doing so, it is of course possible to calculate the average value per employee per business day. Further, an exclusion average obtained by dividing the exclusion total by the number of employees may be managed and output so as to be comparable with the total average.

The management device 6 can output the tabulation of FIG. 8 as a form extracted for each employee.
FIG. 9 shows an example of a form, in which a rank value among all employees, such as the number of times of calling, and a deviation value based on a total average are calculated, employees are ranked based on the deviation value, and two periods ( (Compared period, specified period) are output so that they can be compared.

  Here, the numerical value shown in “Result” in FIG. 9 is the numerical value in FIG. 8, but the numerical value shown in “Rank” is extracted from the number of employees to be targeted when the corresponding cumulative value reaches the reference value. It shows the rank of the targeted employee A.

The "deviation value graph" displays the deviation values of the numerical values shown in "actual results" in a graph form, and defines a rank described later according to the deviation values. That is, in the “deviation value graph”, a graph corresponding to the designated period indicated by the left diagonal line in FIG. 9 (that is, the period extracted in FIG. 8) and the comparison period indicated by the right diagonal line are displayed. This comparison period can be specified in the same manner as the specified period, but when the specified period is specified, the corresponding period before the specified period is indicated. For example, if the designated period is this week, the comparison period is the previous week, and if it is this month, the previous month.
Further, as for “rank” and “rank”, an arrow indicates whether the rank has risen / decreased from the comparison period or has not changed.

Next, a rank calculation method will be described.
When calculating the rank, the rank of each item specifies the rank corresponding to the range of the deviation value, but the overall rank (comprehensive evaluation value) is divided into hall work and counter work (divided into multiple groups) Then, the corresponding rank is specified by the average value of the deviation values of the division units, the points corresponding to the rank are totaled, and the overall rank is specified based on the total. That is, since it is not possible to simply compare different tasks, each task rank (hole task = process corresponding to ID reception at each terminal, counter task = process in POS8) is quantified (pointed), The total rank is calculated from the total score.

For the hole service, each deviation value is combined into one to calculate a score. First, each business rank that performs the hole service is specified by the deviation value.
FIG. 10 shows the rank and the score corresponding to the deviation value, and FIG. 11 shows a method of obtaining the score from the deviation value. Note that a common rank or score may be set corresponding to a plurality of deviation values.

  In the example illustrated in FIG. 11, in the case of a concurrent job of the hall business and the counter business, the deviation values of the respective operations that make up the hall business are averaged into one and scored, and the deviation value of the counter business is scored. And sum them up. In the case of a person in charge of the hall business, the deviation values of the respective businesses that make up the hall business are averaged into one and scored. Then, the total score is determined as a threshold to derive an overall rank. In the case of a person in charge of the counter work, the deviation value of the counter work is converted into a score.

  FIG. 12 shows the relationship between the total points and the overall rank. In the case of FIG. 11, the total rank is determined to be S because the score of the concurrent person in charge of the hall main and the counter main is 5 points. On the other hand, since the full-time person in charge of the hall has four points, the overall rank is determined to be A.

  As described above, the overall rank is obtained only by evaluating the "work volume", and the "work efficiency" and "corresponding speed" are calculated from the average of the deviation values or from the average of the scores. I do.

Next, a description will be given of a method of calculating the workload of a person concurrently performing the hall business and the counter business.
In the case of one business day (one service period, unit period), where the hall business and the counter business are concurrently performed on the same day, the business hours for each business category cannot be calculated. .

  In the case where the working form of one employee is as shown in FIG. 13, the work volume per hour of the hall work is calculated using the work time (16 hours 30 minutes) obtained by adding the round numbers 1, 2, and 7 as the denominator, and The work hours with a circled number of 5, which is concurrently held, are not included in the calculation. On the other hand, the work amount per hour of the counter work is calculated using the work time (6 hours) indicated by the circled number 3 as the denominator, but the work time indicated by the circled number 5 concurrently used on the same day is not included in the calculation.

  In the present embodiment, in the case of the same situation where the hall business and the counter business are concurrently performed on one business day, the business status is excluded from the calculation target. You may. That is, the business hours are apportioned according to the numerical value of each item. For example, in the case where the number of calls corresponding to the circled number 5 is 30 times, the number of times corresponding to the car is 3 times, the number of times of counting is 47 times, and the number of prize exchanges is 20 times, 10 hours of business hours are apportioned according to the ratio of the total of 80 times of the hall business and the total of 20 times of the counter business. The home business is 80% of 80 times out of a total of 100 times, 8 hours, and the counter business is 8 hours. Each rank or the like may be calculated by setting the remaining 20% to 2 hours. In this case, the business hours are apportioned according to the evaluation value and the business hours are specified in business units (group units), so that the business hours that do not correspond to each correspondence type are excluded from the parameter and the business efficiency can be specified appropriately. Become. Of course, taking into account that the burden on the work load differs as in the case of calculating the number of counting boxes, an index corresponding to the burden is set for each item, and the ratio etc. is multiplied by the numerical value of each item. It may be specified.

According to such an embodiment, the following effects can be obtained.
By associating the remote control ID (reception ID) with the employee ID in the business hours corresponding to the start operation to the end operation, the employee ID can be specified by the reception ID, and the corresponding processing status of the employee can be specified. This reduces the need for managers to perform registration work, makes it possible to respond flexibly to sudden shifts in employee work, etc., and makes it possible to distribute the burden of registration work by managers to employees. Even when the remote controller 36 can be shared by a plurality of employees, the employee can be appropriately managed.

  Since each terminal which is easy for the player to see is not allowed to receive the registration signal from the remote controller 36, it is possible to prevent the registration process such as the start operation from being seen by the player. The registration process can be performed, and the registration process can be performed after reducing the possibility that the player will feel uncomfortable.

Since the corresponding process can be specified not only by the processing signal but also by the employee ID card, the corresponding process can be specified with flexibility.
When an employee ID is input by an operation input, an employee ID different from the own employee ID may be input due to an operation error or the like. Is issued, or a warning message is issued to the terminal when the same employee ID has overlapping business hours. Therefore, it is necessary to re-enter the employee ID. Employees will be aware of this.

  When performing a comprehensive evaluation that combines the evaluations of the hall business and the counter business, each evaluation must be low when performing both operations, but the corresponding processing is divided into the hall business and the counter business. Employees are evaluated for each category, and the overall evaluation of the employees is performed based on the total of the evaluations. Therefore, the same evaluation as an employee who does not concurrently work can be performed.

Since the evaluation value of the employee in the business unit is specified by the average value of the deviation values of the evaluation indices, appropriate evaluation can be performed even if there are some types of correspondence between the business units.
Since the operation efficiency indicates the evaluation index for the operation time, the value is appropriate if the operation time is also used for the corresponding type of each business, but if it is used between different operations, it will correspond to each type of operation. There is a possibility that an appropriate value may not be obtained because business hours that are not included are included as parameters. However, when calculating the number of operations per hour, business days concurrently serving the same day are excluded from the calculation target, so that it is possible to appropriately specify the operation efficiency.

  A plurality of types of game values, such as balls and medals, are provided in a game hall, and when performing the counting process, that is, carrying a so-called ball box or accepting the game value to the counting device 7. In this case, since the weight per ball and the medal is different, even if the count value is the same for the ball and the medal, it cannot be said that it is the same. However, in order to specify the burden index after correcting with the number of counting boxes (counting index) specified from the count value, appropriate evaluation after correcting the difference in the degree of burden between the types of game values is required. It becomes possible.

  By calculating the total average of the total number including the corresponding processes for which the employee ID such as the remote control ID could not be identified by the number of employees who were able to identify the employee ID, the employee ID was calculated. The corresponding process that could not be specified can be managed by the total average after assuming that any employee who has identified the employee ID has performed, and even if the employee cannot provide the employee ID every time, It is possible to manage the total average according to the response status.

  It manages not only the processing status of each employee but also the processing status of "No ID", so that it is possible to know how much the employee ID has not been presented, and to the employee etc. when the corresponding processing amount is large. It is possible to present an index for instructing to present the employee ID every time.

  Identifies the employee who performed the response processing based on the employee-specific response information such as the number of times of call response, so that average response information can be calculated without including employees who went to work but performed only non-target tasks. , It is possible to grasp more accurate average correspondence information.

  Even though the employee ID was specified, the corresponding processing for the reference value was not performed, and the average corresponding information was calculated without including the corresponding processing corresponding to the employee ID that was not the target of the average corresponding information. Therefore, more accurate average correspondence information can be grasped.

(2nd Embodiment)
A second embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. In the second embodiment, the gaming machine 1 and the counting device 7 are associated with each corner, and which employee is in charge of which corner at the time of start operation or end operation by the remote controller 36 is specified. It is characterized by the following.

  That is, each NO. It is set which gaming machine 1 or counting device 7 is to be associated with a corner corresponding to the game, and the corresponding process is sorted according to which gaming machine 1 or counting device 7 the corresponding process corresponds to, and the corresponding process is performed for each corner. Aggregate the situation.

  FIG. 15 is an example of a form tabulated by the management device 6 for each employee. The form is specified separately or tabulated, and the output target employee (target employee to be notified) is one business day. FIG. 8 is an example of tabulation by extracting FIG. 7 for the corresponding processing status.

  Each item in FIG. 15 is divided into upper and lower four columns. The first column is “number of times”, the second column is “whole number”, the third column is “own share”, and the fourth column is “all shares”. And the like, and “number of times” and the like are synonymous with FIG. 8 and the like. The “total number of times” and the like indicate the number of times and the like in the corresponding period, and have the same meaning as the number of times and the like in FIG. The “own share” indicates the share of each corner in the employee. For example, in the case of calling correspondence, it is indicated by the number of times of each corner / the total number of times. “All shares” indicates the share of the corresponding processing of the employee with respect to the total number of times, and if the call is handled, it is represented by “number of times / total number of times”. As for “counting” and “counting box”, one counting device 7 is associated with a plurality of corners as shown in FIG. 14, so that a plurality of corners are summarized and counted. Corners may be divided by inputting.

  Here, “call release” (call release period) is “time” in the first row, “whole time” in the second row, “own average” in the third row, and “total average” in the fourth row. “Time” and “Total time” are synonymous with other items, but “Self-mean” indicates the average value of the corresponding employee in the call release time per one call response, and “Total mean” , Indicates the average value of the whole.

  The “correspondence share” indicates the own share that sums up (corresponds to) the call correspondence and the table correspondence, and identifies the corresponding corner. However, the corresponding corner is not set by a start operation or the like, and the corresponding share is set to the reference value ( The corresponding corner may be specified on condition that there is 30%). Here, the example of specifying by “correspondence share” that the response processing is performed more frequently than other corners has been exemplified, but the number of times, the number of boxes, and the like are compared with a reference value, and the number of boxes between corners is determined. It may be specified by comparison or the like.

  For “Calling in charge” etc., the section in charge is assigned to the section in charge, and the others are classified as support, and the number of times for each item is tabulated for the section in charge and support. However, all shares and own shares may be indicated.

  The “processing corner” is the total of the corners for which the corresponding processing has been specified by a reference value (for example, once) in any item or a specific item (for example, calling correspondence), and is processed in five corners in FIG. Is specified, 5 is counted, and the share indicates the ratio of the number of processing corners to all corners (for example, 20).

The management device 6 manages the corresponding processing status of the entire game arcade for each corner in a period corresponding to a period in which the employee has worked.
FIG. 16 is an example of a form in which the corresponding processing status of the entire game arcade in the period corresponding to FIG. 15 is tabulated. Note that FIG. 15 and FIG. 16 do not coincide with each other in terms of business hours, but FIG. 15 shows the working period of the employee.

  In FIG. 16, the number of times is the same as that of FIG. 15 and the like, and the share indicates the ratio of each corner to the whole, that is, the number of times of each corner / the total number of times. If the employee group to be counted includes employees (non-target employees) other than the employees (target employees) to be output in FIG. 15, the entire amusement arcade as shown in FIG. Instead of (target employee + non-target employee), for example, only non-target employees may be targeted.

Although the period corresponding to the business hours in FIG. 15 is set as the target period in FIG. 16, the target period in FIG. 16 may be specified to include a period other than the business hours in FIG.
Note that FIG. 16 only shows the period corresponding to FIG. 15 out of the preset periods such as the early number and the late number, for example. Period is good.

  In addition, a corner corresponding to the employee on the business day can be input at the time of starting operation of the business with the remote controller 36 or operating the management device 6, and the corner corresponding to the employee is specified. Here, the operation performed in combination with the start operation as the group designation operation corresponding to the start operation has been exemplified. However, if the group designation operation is accepted in response to the start operation, for example, the group designation operation is accepted on condition that the start operation is performed. Such correspondence may be used.

The management device 6 extracts the corresponding processing status in the designated target period, classifies the corner in charge and the non-charged corner for each employee, and manages the numerical ratio and the like.
In addition, regarding the call release time, together with the average release time of the corresponding employee, the average release time of the whole is managed for each division such as charge. Furthermore, the number of corners for which processing is specified as the number of processing corners is also included in the totaling.

  FIGS. 17 and 18 are examples of forms in which the target period (a plurality of business days) is specified and FIG. 15 is extracted and tabulated. FIG. ) And “support” (non-responsible processing) corresponding to the other corners (total is the total). Here, the form in which the target period is specified may be a form classified by corner as shown in FIG. 15, or a form in business days may be divided into charge and support and totaled. 17 and 18 are the same form, but have different numerical values because the target employees are different.

  In FIGS. 17 and 18 (hereinafter, representatively, FIG. 17), “all shares”, “entire share”, “entire support”, and “support share” are added as compared with FIG. This is synonymous, and the number of processing corners indicates an average value per business day.

  The “own share” has the same meaning as in FIG. 15 and indicates the ratio of the relevant employee (such as the number of times of division or support) in the relevant employee. “All shares” is also synonymous with FIG. 15 and indicates the ratio of the target employee's processing (target processing) for the relevant category to the total number of times such as the number of times for the relevant category.

  The “total share” indicates the ratio of the target process for each category to the entire process, and, for example, in the case of calling, indicates the ratio of the number of assignments (182) to the total number of times (1852). Note that “total share” and “total share” of “total” are summarized because they have the same value.

  "Overall support" is a total value of the number of times of support of each employee. Here, the “total number of times” of “support” indicates the number of corners to be supported by the employee, and may be assigned to other employees in some cases. ”. Further, “support share” indicates the ratio of the number of times of support of the employee to “whole support”.

  17 and FIG. 18, the “number of times” of “call correspondence” and the “number of times” of “count” have the same value, and the “self-average” of “call release” is shorter in FIG. In the case of the conventional configuration in which evaluation is performed by itself, the evaluation in FIG. 18 is higher. For example, in the case of “call correspondence”, “all shares” occupies 93.3% in FIG. However, in FIG. 18, it is not so high at 62.2%, and it can be understood that FIG. 18 is considerably longer than FIG. 17 by comparing “total average” of “call release”.

  That is, FIG. 18 is in charge of a corner having a higher frequency of response processing than in FIG. 17, but among them, only the processing that can be immediately performed is performed, and the processing that cannot be immediately performed is avoided, and other employees are rejected. Because we rely on support, we can see that the overall call release time at the responsible section is long, and it is necessary to provide guidance to the employee. On the other hand, in FIG. Can be grasped without delay by the employee concerned.

  The same applies to counting. In FIG. 18, since the total counting share is low, the fact that the number of counting boxes is small does not mean that the value acquired in the corner in charge is small, but that the employee has avoided counting processing with a large counting burden. Can be grasped.

  On the other hand, when the support of the call handling own share is compared between FIG. 17 and FIG. 18, FIG. 17 is higher and, as described above, “all share” of “in charge” is also higher. Despite the fact that the processing is performed without delay, it can be understood that the response processing is being proactively performed in the corners other than the one in charge, while FIG. 18 shows that not only the “all share” of “in charge” is low, The "self-share" of "support" is low, and it can be understood that neither the response process nor the support of the corner in charge is properly performed.

  Such grasping can be performed by discriminating output of “all shares” when the first reference value (90%) is satisfied and when the second reference value (70%) is not satisfied (yellow (in FIG. ) And green (shown by oblique right lines in the figure), so that it can be more easily grasped. Such discrimination output is also performed for the self-average and the total average of the call release charge and the total (within 20 seconds and outside 35 seconds).

  It should be noted that managing the assigned process separately from the non-assigned process indicates that both the assigned process and the non-assigned process are to be managed, and that each corner is managed by indicating whether the assigned process is the assigned process. However, the management may be performed in any manner, for example, only the processing in charge is managed.

According to such an embodiment, the following effects can be obtained.
Since the handling status is managed by distinguishing the responsible person from the support, the employee can be appropriately evaluated in consideration of the employee's responsible corner.

  Since the total number of times in charge and the number of times are reported in a comparable manner, the number of employees contributed in the responsible section and the number of times in support and the number of support are reported in a comparable manner to the non-charged corner You can understand how much you are going to support.

  By comparing the call release time at the assigned corner with the entire call release time, for example, when the call release time and the overall call release time are significantly different, the employee contributes much to the call release time of the entire assigned corner. If the call release time is short but the total call release time is long, it is possible to provide an index for determination that the employee is performing only the corresponding processing in which the call release time is short.

  Employees work in shifts rather than working throughout the business hours of the amusement arcade, but when comparing the work status of the employee with the work status of other employees, the entire business hours Instead of targeting employees, it is necessary to compare with the work status of other employees during the period corresponding to the working hours, so the whole including other employees during the period corresponding to the working hours of the employee By reporting the work status such as the same in a comparable manner, the employee can be appropriately evaluated in consideration of the work status.

By accepting the start operation and the end operation by the counting device 7 or the like that receives the employee ID when the corresponding process is performed, it is possible to reduce the necessity for the administrator to directly set the work hours for each employee, By setting the corresponding group in association with the start operation and the end operation, it is possible to reduce the necessity for the administrator to directly set the corresponding group.
The necessity of setting the assigned corner can be reduced by the setting operation.

(Other embodiments)
The present invention can be modified or expanded as follows without being limited to the above embodiment.
If the remote control ID is transmitted in response to the operation, the employee ID does not necessarily need to be transmitted in response to the start operation or the like. In this case, the corresponding process is performed by storing the employee ID input by the remote control 36 or the like. The employee ID may be transmitted together with the remote control ID including the start operation and the like when performing the operation. Further, it is not always necessary to transmit the information indicating the type of the corresponding process from the remote controller 36, and the information may be determined by the terminal on the receiving side, or the classification itself according to the type may not be performed. Further, although an example has been described in which the employee ID is input for both the start operation and the end operation, the employee ID may be input for either one.

  Although the start operation and the like are performed after inputting the employee ID in the start operation and the end operation, if the start operation and the employee ID can be associated with each other, the employee is performed after the start operation and the like are performed. The two may be associated by inputting the employee ID, or the input time may be any time, such as inputting the employee ID during a period corresponding to business hours, such as any time during business hours. That is, the registration signal and the ID signal do not necessarily have to be the same signal.

  As the information indicating that the start operation to be transmitted at the time of the start operation has been performed, if the employee ID and the remote control ID can be distinguished from other cases by making them the transmission targets only at the time of the start operation, It can be specified as information indicating that.

  Although the period from the start operation to the end operation is exemplified as the business time, if the operation is supported, for example, the business time is set to 10 minutes before the start operation to 10 minutes after the end operation, or the start operation is performed. The business time may be specified in any way, such as by setting the period from the time the first processing is performed to the processing immediately before the end operation is performed as the business time. Further, the business hours may be specified, for example, by a time card or the like, without depending on the remote control operation or the like.

  It was divided into two types: hall operations and counter operations. For example, since the number of times of dealing with cars is fraudulent, only specific employees are allowed. Of course, if it is divided into groups, it may be divided into groups other than the two types.

  Since the burden ratio of each work may be different at one time, when performing the comprehensive evaluation, not only simply averaging the deviation values of each work, but also the work load ratio when calculating the number of counting boxes May be multiplied by a preset exponent to correct the average value, and then the average value may be calculated.

  Although the example of specifying a plurality of types of corresponding processes as the corresponding processes has been exemplified, when managing an average value, all the corresponding processes may be managed without being distinguished. No need to manage.

  The example in which the reference value is set to 0 when specifying the employee who has not performed the corresponding process for the reference value has been described. However, by determining whether the employee ID is specified, the corresponding process for the reference value can be performed. Of course, it may be determined whether or not the operation has been performed.

  Although the identification and reception of the employee ID are illustrated by accepting the remote controller ID after associating the employee ID with the remote controller ID, the remote controller ID is processed as the employee ID without such association. May be.

  The determination of above or below and the determination of below or below have been illustrated in various places, but any may be adopted including those not illustrated. As a range, not only a case where both the upper limit and the lower limit are set, but also a case where only one of them is set also corresponds to the range.

  If the set values exemplified are set in advance, they can be arbitrarily set by the game arcade manager, set by the manufacturer of the management device 6, or set from an external (for example, a chain store headquarters) management server. Information may be downloaded and set.

  In the case of a recording medium capable of specifying a game value, not only the configuration in which the game value can be specified only with the recording medium, but also the management value is associated with the ID of the recording medium in the management device 6, and the ID is recorded. When the recorded recording medium is received, it may be specified by inquiring of the management device 6.

  Although a card has been illustrated as an example of a recording medium, another recording medium such as a coin may be used as long as information capable of specifying a valuable value can be recorded. Although the process of ejecting the recording medium has been exemplified as the issuing process, the issuing process may be a process in which the acquired value can be specified by a recording medium such as a mobile phone possessed by a player. The operation of holding the mobile phone over the issuing operation unit may be the issuing operation.

  All of the illustrated game information may be directly specified by an input signal or may be indirectly specified by using an arithmetic expression. Further, the numerical values, the number of digits, the items, and the like are merely examples, and any numerical values may be adopted. The information to be notified may be not only numerical information but also, for example, information such as a graph and a rank shown in FIG.

A pachinko gaming machine other than the exemplified pachinko gaming machine, a slot machine, or the like can be adopted as the target gaming machine.
The illustrated process may be performed not only by the management device 6 but also by any device such as the relay device 4, the information display device 3, and the counting device 7. In addition, any of the illustrated configurations including the modified examples may be combined in any manner, and may not be adopted as appropriate.

  In the drawings, 1 is a gaming machine, 3 is an information display device (reception means), 6 is a management device (group means, assigned group setting means, correspondence processing specifying means, management means, notification means, period specifying means), and 7 is an island. An edge counting device (accepting means) 8 is a POS (accepting means).
