Description

The present invention relates to an information processing apparatus, an information processing method and a program.

There is known a system capable of voting by a mobile terminal in various competitions in which voting such as bicycle racing, horse racing, or boat racing is performed. Patent Document 1 discloses a system in which a voter can purchase a voting ticket using a mobile terminal.

Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2013-114487

The voting method adopted in the competition in which voting is held is complicated, and the threshold for voting is high for voters who have little experience in voting (hereinafter referred to as "voting beginners"). For example, in the case of bicycle races, horse races, boat races, etc., it is difficult for beginners to understand how to vote because the voting method and the athlete must be selected from many voting patterns.

Therefore, it is conceivable that the content to be voted by other experienced voters is presented to the voting beginner, and the voting beginner votes with the same content as the other voters. However, if many voting beginners refer to the content voted by the same other voter, there arises a problem that the votes for the same player are too concentrated.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to prevent voting for the same athlete from being concentrated too much.

The information processing device according to one aspect of the present invention is an information processing device that accepts votes for a competition that can be voted for a voting target, and a plurality of predictors of the competition are made to voters who vote for the competition. The predictor presenting unit that presents the predictor, the selection information indicating the select predictor selected by the voter from the plurality of predictors, and the voting target that is the same as at least a part of the voting targets specified by the selection predictor. Among a plurality of voters who have instructed to vote for the same voting target as at least a part of the voting target specified by the selection prospecter selected by the voter and the instruction acquisition unit for acquiring the voting instruction for. , The instruction acquisition unit gives the voter who acquired the voting instruction at the first time point to the voter who acquired the voting instruction at the second time point after the first time point. It has a privilege granting unit that grants a privilege larger than the privilege.

According to the present invention, it is possible to prevent the voting for the same player from being concentrated too much.

<System configuration>
FIG. 1 is a diagram showing an example of a system configuration of the voting system 1 according to the present embodiment. The voting system 1 shown in FIG. 1 includes an information processing device 10 and one or more terminals 20. The information processing device 10 and the terminal 20 are connected to each other so as to be able to communicate with each other via a communication network N such as the Internet, an intranet, a wireless LAN, or a mobile communication network.

The information processing device 10 is a device that accepts votes for competitions that can be voted for. Specifically, the information processing device 10 supports a voter who uses the terminal 20 to bet a predetermined value on a competitor who is expected to win the competition in a competition such as a bicycle race, a horse race, or a boat race. It is a device to do.

The voter decides the voting target determined by the combination of the starting slot and the voting method (that is, the betting type) corresponding to multiple competitors or competitors who are expected to win the competition, and the determined voting target and the voting target. It is possible to vote by setting the number of bets or the amount of bets of a predetermined value on the terminal 20. When the competition to be voted is a bicycle race, the voting target is, for example, "1st place is 5th, 2nd place is 3rd two-car single" or "1st, 2nd and 5th competitors are selected". It is a triple ". In addition, the two-car single means to predict the first and second place athletes in the order of arrival, and the triple double means the athletes who enter the first to third place regardless of the order of arrival. To expect.

The predetermined value may be money, or may be points or the like that can be used in a predetermined service or game. Further, the points may be points that the voter can receive free of charge (free points), or points that can be received in exchange for payment of money (paid points).

Voters can receive a refund value (eg, money) that is determined based on the magnitude of the predetermined value used for voting and the odds. For example, if the voting content is correct as a result of voting using the first value, the first refund value is determined based on the odds corresponding to the voting content and the voted first value. If the voting content is correct as a result of voting using the second value, the second refund value is determined based on the odds corresponding to the voting content and the voted second value. Here, the first refund value and the second refund value are different values. In addition, the odds for the voting content may be determined based on the voting content of all voters based on the second value.

The information processing apparatus 10 is composed of, for example, one or a plurality of physical servers. The information processing apparatus 10 may be configured by using a virtual server operating on a hypervisor, or may be configured by using a cloud server.

The terminal 20 is a terminal used by a voter who votes, and is, for example, an information processing terminal such as a mobile phone (including a smartphone), a tablet terminal, or a personal computer. The voter can vote for the voting target by operating the terminal 20. When the terminal 20 receives the input of the voting target from the voter, the terminal 20 indicates the voting target in association with the voter identification information (hereinafter, referred to as "voting ID") for identifying the voter who uses the terminal 20. Information is transmitted to the information processing apparatus 10.

The information processing device 10 has a process of storing a voting target voted by a voter using the terminal 20, a process of storing the magnitude of the value owned by the voter, and a reward amount (that is, a refund amount) according to the result of the competition. ) Is executed.

In the voting system 1, in order to make it easier for beginners to understand what kind of voting should be done, the information processing device 10 sets the voting target specified by the predictor who predicts the result of the competition to the terminal 20. By displaying it, the voting target is presented to the voters. The predictor is, for example, a voter who has abundant experience in voting in a competition or a voter who has abundant knowledge about a competitor, and is registered in the information processing apparatus 10 in advance. The predictor may be a part of the voters among a plurality of voters, or may be a person who only makes a prediction without voting.

The voter can see one or more voting targets displayed on the terminal 20 and then vote for the same voting target as the displayed voting target, or at least a part of the same voting target. In the present specification, voting on the same voting target as the one predicted by the predictor, or at least a part of the same voting target, is referred to as "carpool voting". Partial voting on the same voting target means, for example, voting on the same voting target as the voting target in some of the votes cast by the predictor. It may include the case where voting for the same voting target is the same as the voting target for some of the voting targets in one vote. In this case, for example, if one of the voting targets of the 1st or 2nd place is the same among the voting targets predicted by the predictor for the 1st and 2nd place, some of them will be the same voting target. Included in voting.

If a large number of voters vote in a carpool for the same voting target, there is a risk that the votes for the same voting target will be too concentrated. Therefore, the information processing apparatus 10 refers to the voter who voted for the predictor relatively quickly among the plurality of voters who vote for the predictor selected by the voter as the target for the shared vote. Gives greater perks than other voters. By operating the information processing apparatus 10 in this way, the voting system 1 can motivate the voter to select a predictor who is not a carpool vote by another voter. As a result, the voting system 1 can prevent the voting for the same competitor from being over-concentrated.

Here, the fact that the privilege is large means not only giving value directly to the voter, but also increasing the reward amount when the voter's vote content is correct, or the possibility that the vote content is correct. Including increasing. For example, when the voter is voting for the competition using the second value, the information processing device 10 has the same voting content of the voter as compared with the case where the voter is not voting using the second value. The first refund value given to the person may be increased. Further, for example, when the voter is voting for the competition using the second value, the information processing device 10 is used as the first refund value given when the voter is not voting using the second value. In addition, different third values may be imparted.
Hereinafter, the configurations and operations of the information processing apparatus 10 and the terminal 20 will be described in detail.

In the expected voting target table shown in FIG. 3, the predictor name, the voting method, the voting target predicted by the predictor (that is, the expected voting target), and the number of voters who selected each expected voting target (that is, the selecter). The number) and the bet amount corresponding to the predictor are associated.

The "expected voting target" is, for example, a combination of a voting method and an expected winner corresponding to the voting target that the predictor has already voted for, or a voting target that notifies the information processing apparatus 10 that the predictor wants to vote. It is a combination of voting methods and expected winners corresponding to. The "number of selected people" is the number of voters who have voted in a carpool with the same content as the expected voting target. The "bet amount" is the total amount of bets set in the carpool vote by a plurality of voters who voted for the prospective carpool.

The communication IF 13 has a communication controller for performing wired communication or wireless communication with the terminal 20 via the network N.

The output device 25 outputs information to, for example, a voter. The output device 25 is, for example, a display or a speaker.

<Functional block configuration>
FIG. 5 is a diagram showing an example of a functional block configuration of the processor 11. The processor 11 has a predictor presenting unit 111, an instruction acquisition unit 112, and a privilege giving unit 113. The processor 11 functions as the predictor presenting unit 111, the instruction acquisition unit 112, and the privilege giving unit 113 by executing the program stored in the storage unit 12.

The predictor presentation unit 111 presents a plurality of predictors who make predictions for the competition to the voters who vote for the competition. The predictor presenting unit 111 presents a plurality of predictors by, for example, transmitting a plurality of predictor names to the terminal 20 used by the voter and causing the terminal 20 to display the plurality of predictor names.

6 to 8 are diagrams showing an example of a screen displayed on the terminal 20 by the predictor presenting unit 111. FIG. 6 is a screen displayed on the terminal 20 in which the application software for voting is started. FIG. 7 is an example of a screen displayed on the terminal 20 when the voter chooses to vote in a carpool. FIG. 8 is a screen for inputting a bet amount. The screen of FIG. 8 is displayed on the terminal 20 when the voter selects a prospective person to be voted in a carpool.

In the screen shown in FIG. 6, an area 251 for selecting a voting method, an area 252 for inputting an expected voting target, an operation image 253 for selecting a shared voting, and an operation image 254 for performing a cancel operation, And an operation image 255 for performing a determination operation is shown. When the voter wants to decide the voting target by himself / herself, the voter selects the voting method in the area 251, inputs the number of the competitor or the entry slot in the area 252, and clicks the "OK" button of the operation image 255. You can vote by selecting.

A voter who wants to vote in a carpool can vote for a carpool by selecting the "carpool vote" button in the operation image 253 and then selecting the "decision" button in the operation image 255 without operating the areas 251 and 252. can do. When the carpool button is selected, the predictor presenting unit 111 causes the terminal 20 to display a plurality of predictors to be voted by the voter as shown in FIG. 7A.

In FIG. 7A, the name of the prospective person, the target of the prospective vote, and the odds are displayed in association with each other. The predictor presenting unit 111 may recommend the predictor to whom the privilege is to be given to the voter among the plurality of predictors. In FIG. 7A, an image showing that the privilege is given when the voter selects the predictor B is displayed. The predictor presenting unit 111 may display the recommended predictor at a higher level in FIG. 7A, or may display it with emphasis over other predictors.

Although the details will be described later, the privilege granting unit 113 selects a predictor who has not been selected by many voters as a target to which the privilege is granted. Therefore, by displaying the predictor to which the privilege is given on the terminal 20 in this way, the voter is the predictor to which the privilege is given (that is, the predictor who is not selected so much by other voters). It becomes easier to select, and the voting system 1 can prevent the voting for the same competitor from being over-concentrated.

The voter selects a prospective person to vote in a carpool on the screen shown in FIG. 7A displayed on the terminal 20. When the voter selects one predictor on the screen shown in FIG. 7 (a), the screen transitions to the screen shown in FIG. 7 (b). On the screen shown in FIG. 7B, when the voter selects the predictor B and then touches the “Enter bet amount” button, the screen transitions to the screen shown in FIG.

On the screen shown in FIG. 8, the voter inputs the bet amount on the voting target designated by the selected predictor. When the voter inputs the bet amount and then touches the "OK" button, the terminal 20 is set to the selection information indicating the selection predictor selected by the voter from a plurality of predictors, at least the voting target specified by the selection predictor. A voting instruction for the same voting target as a part (that is, a shared voting instruction for sharing a vote with a prospective voter) and a bet amount are transmitted to the information processing apparatus 10.

The instruction acquisition unit 112 acquires the selection information transmitted by the terminal 20, the shared voting instruction for shared voting with the expected selection person, and the bet amount. When the instruction acquisition unit 112 acquires the shared voting instruction, 1 is added to the number of voters associated with the selection predictor indicated by the selection information in the prediction voting target table stored in the storage unit 12. Further, when the instruction acquisition unit 112 acquires the bet amount, the bet amount received from the terminal 20 is added to the bet amount associated with the selection predictor indicated by the selection information in the expected voting target table stored in the storage unit 12. do.

The privilege granting unit 113 instructs the voter who has obtained the voting instruction at the first time point among the plurality of voters who have instructed the shared voting to the prospective person selected by the voter. The acquisition unit 112 grants a privilege larger than the privilege given to the voter who acquired the voting instruction at the second time point after the first time point. The privilege granting unit 113, for example, is between the time when the instruction acquisition unit 112 starts accepting instructions and the time when the predetermined privilege granting period applied when the voter makes a shared vote with the prospective person selected by the voter elapses. , Grants a larger benefit to voters than after the benefit grant period has elapsed. The privilege granting unit 113 grants the privilege by storing the content of the privilege in the storage unit 12, for example, in association with the voter ID.

The privilege granting unit 113, for example, grants the same kind of value as the value used for voting by the voter as a privilege. Specifically, the privilege granting unit 113 grants cash as a privilege when the voter votes in cash, and grants free points as a privilege when voting with free points. At the time of refund, the privilege granting unit 113 may grant the same value as the value refunded when the vote is successful as a privilege. In this case, the privilege granting unit 113 grants cash as a privilege when cash is refunded, and grants points as a privilege when refunded by points. The privilege granting unit 113 may grant the privilege on condition that the vote is correct.

The privilege granting unit 113 may grant a privilege having a size corresponding to the magnitude of the value used for voting. The privilege granting unit 113 may grant a privilege of an amount obtained by multiplying the voting amount by a predetermined rate, for example. By granting a privilege of a size according to the size to the value used for voting in this way, the privilege granting unit 113 is motivated to increase the value used by the voter for voting. Business profit will increase.

After the privilege granting period has elapsed, the privilege granting unit 113 may not grant the privilege to the voter who has voted in a carpool with the prospective person corresponding to the privilege granting period. In this case, the predictor presenting unit 111 may display the remaining time of the privilege granting period on the terminal 20, or may display the content of the privilege to be granted on the terminal 20 in association with the remaining time. By operating the predictor presentation unit 111 and the privilege granting unit 113 in this way, the voting system 1 can motivate the voter to vote in a carpool with the predictor to whom the privilege is granted. can.

The privilege granting unit 113 corresponds to the selection predictor selected by the second number of voters, which is larger than the first number, in the first privilege granting period corresponding to the selection predictor selected by the first number of voters. 2 It may be longer than the privilege grant period. That is, the privilege granting unit 113 grants the privilege to the first privilege granting period for granting the privilege to the predictor who is selected by the voter less frequently, and grants the privilege to the predictor who is selected more often by the voter. Make it longer than the second privilege grant period. In this case, the predictor presenting unit 111 may display the remaining time of the privilege grant period on the terminal 20 in association with the predictor. By operating the predictor presentation unit 111 and the privilege granting unit 113 in this way, it becomes easier for the voter to vote in a carpool with a small number of predictors selected by other voters, so that the voting system 1 is the same. Voting for athletes can be prevented from being too concentrated.

The privilege granting unit 113 sets the first privilege granting period for the selection predictors selected by the voters who have less than the threshold number, and the second privilege granting period for the selection predictors selected by the voters who have more than the threshold number. May be set. In this case, the privilege granting unit 113 determines the threshold value based on, for example, the number of voters who have selected each predictor in the carpool voting in similar competitions in the past. Similar competitions in the past include, for example, if the content of the competition (eg horse racing or bicycle racing) is the same, if the distances of the races are the same, the distance zone (sprint is less than 1600m, middle distance is 1600 or more and less than 2400, At least some of the conditions that influence a voter's decision to vote are the same, such as when at least some of the competitors are the same (for example, a long distance of 2400 m or more).

As an example, the privilege granting unit 113 has more selections corresponding to the predictors selected by the least voters in the past competition and corresponding to the predictors selected by the most voters in the past competition. The threshold is the number of people less than the number of people. By setting the threshold value in this way, the privilege granting unit 113 tends to increase the number of voters who select the predictor who has a small number of selections in the past competition.

The privilege granting unit 113 may change the threshold value between the first number of people and the second number of people with the passage of time. The privilege granting unit 113 determines, for example, the difference between the number of selecters corresponding to the predictor selected by the most voters and the number of selecters corresponding to the predictor selected by the least voter. When it becomes larger than the difference between, the threshold corresponding to the predictor selected by the voter less than the reference number (for example, the smallest voter) is increased. By operating the privilege granting unit 113 in this way, the privilege granting period corresponding to the predictor selected by the smallest voter becomes longer, so that the number of voters who select the predictor with the smaller number of choices increases. It will be easier.

The privilege granting unit 113 gives a larger privilege as soon as the instruction acquisition unit 112 receives an instruction to vote for at least a part of the voting targets specified by the prospective voter among the plurality of voters. May be given. For example, the privilege granting unit 113 grants the first privilege to the voter who voted in the carpool to the predictor A between the time when the voting system 1 started accepting the carpool vote and the time when a predetermined time elapses. , The second privilege, which is smaller than the first privilege, is given to the voter who voted for the prospect A after the lapse of a predetermined time. The privilege granting unit 113 may not grant the privilege to the voter who voted for the predictor A after a predetermined time has elapsed since the first vote for the prospect A.

The privilege granting unit 113 may determine the time when the content of the privilege is switched for each predictor. For example, the privilege granting unit 113 reduces the privilege for the voter who shared the vote with the predictor who has many selected voters at the time when the privilege for the voter who voted for the expectant with few selected voters is reduced. Be slower than when you do. In this case, the predictor presenting unit 111 may display the time point at which the privilege is scheduled to be reduced on the terminal 20 in association with the predictor. By operating the predictor presentation unit 111 and the privilege granting unit 113 in this way, it becomes easier for the voter to vote in a carpool with a small number of predictors selected by other voters, so that the voting system 1 is the same. Voting for athletes can be prevented from being too concentrated.

The privilege giving unit 113 has a larger privilege than after the number of times the instruction acquisition unit 112 has acquired the instruction in relation to each of the selected predictors selected by the voter until the number of times the instruction has been acquired reaches the number threshold value. May be given to voters. The privilege granting unit 113, for example, gives the first privilege to the voter who selected the predictor A and voted in a carpool until the number of people who selected the predictor A and voted in a carpool reached a predetermined number. Give. Then, the privilege granting unit 113 is more than the first privilege for the voter who selected the predictor A and voted in a carpool after the number of people who selected the predictor A and voted in a carpool reached a predetermined number. Grant a small second benefit.

In this case, the predictor presenting unit 111 may select each predictor and display the number of times and the threshold value of the carpool voting in association with the predictor on the terminal 20. By operating the predictor presentation unit 111 and the privilege granting unit 113 in this way, the voting system 1 can also motivate the voter to vote in a carpool for the predictor who is selected less frequently. ..

When the privilege granting unit 113 changes the content of the privilege based on the number of times the shared voting instruction is obtained, the privilege granting unit 113 sets the number threshold value corresponding to the selected predictor selected by the first number of voters. It may be larger than the number threshold corresponding to the selected predictor selected by the second voter, which is larger than the number of people. In this case, the predictor presenting unit 111 may display the number-of-times threshold value on the terminal 20 in association with the predictor. By operating the predictor presentation unit 111 and the privilege granting unit 113 in this way, it becomes easier for the voter to vote together with the predictor who has a small number of selections by other voters.

The privilege granting unit 113 may determine the size of the privilege to be granted to the newly selected voter for each predictor based on the number of voters who selected each predictor to vote in a carpool. ..

Specifically, the privilege granting unit 113 is the same as at least a part of the voting target designated by the first predictor who has instructed to vote for the same voting target as at least a part of the voting target by the first number of voters. The first privilege is given to the first voter who has instructed to vote for the voting target of. Then, the privilege granting unit 113 is at least one of the voting targets designated by the second predictor who has instructed the voting target to be the same as at least a part of the voting target by the second number of voters, which is larger than the first number. The second privilege, which is smaller than the first privilege, is given to the second voter who has instructed to vote for the same voting target as the department.

By operating the privilege granting unit 113 in this way, the voting system 1 may motivate the voter to select a predictor who has not been selected by another voter, who can obtain a larger privilege. can. Therefore, the voting system 1 can prevent the voting for the same competitor from being too concentrated.

The privilege granting unit 113 refers to the expected voting target table shown in FIG. 3, and newly selects each predictor based on the total amount bet by the number of voters who have selected each predictor for carpool voting. You may decide the size of the award to be given to the voter selected in.

The privilege granting unit 113 is, for example, the same voting target as at least a part of the voting target designated by the first predictor who has instructed to vote for the same voting target as at least a part of the voting target by the first number of voters. The privilege is given to the first voter until the voting amount by the first voter who has instructed to vote for is reached the first amount. Then, the privilege granting unit 113 is at least one of the voting targets designated by the second predictor who has instructed the voting target to be the same as at least a part of the voting target by the second number of voters, which is larger than the first number. Benefits are granted to the second voter until the second voter who has instructed to vote for the same voting target as the department reaches the second amount, which is smaller than the first amount.

In the case of the example shown in FIG. 3, assuming that the first number of people is less than 40, the second number of people is 40 or more, and the first amount is 50,000 yen, the privilege granting unit 113 has 40 people selected. Benefits will be given to voters who have selected predictors A, B, and E until the total bet amount for each of the predictors A, B, and E, which is less than, reaches 50,000 yen. As shown in FIG. 3, when the bet amount corresponding to the predictor A exceeds 50,000 yen, the privilege granting unit 113 votes by selecting the predictors B and E whose bet amount is 50,000 yen or less. Give a privilege to a person.

On the other hand, assuming that the second amount is 40,000 yen, the privilege granting unit 113 selects the predictor F whose bet amount is less than 40,000 yen among the predictors C, D, and F having 40 or more selecters. Benefits will be given to those who voted. On the other hand, since the bet amount corresponding to the predictors C and D is 40,000 yen or more, the privilege granting unit 113 does not grant the privilege to the voter who selected the predictors C and D. By operating the privilege granting unit 113 in this way, the voter can easily select a predictor who has a small number of selections and a small total bet amount to vote in a shared manner. Voting for the same player can be prevented from being over-concentrated, and bets can be prevented from being over-concentrated on the same player.

<Processing flow of information processing device 10>
FIG. 9 is a flowchart showing a processing flow of the information processing apparatus. FIG. 9 starts from the time when "carpool voting" is selected on the screen shown in FIG.

When "carpool voting" is selected, the predictor presenting unit 111 causes the terminal 20 to display a list of predictors that can be selected by the voter (S11). Subsequently, the instruction acquisition unit 112 acquires selection information indicating the predictor selected by the voter (S12), and acquires a voting instruction (S13).

When the instruction acquisition unit 112 acquires the voting instruction, the privilege granting unit 113 determines whether the time when the instruction acquisition unit 112 acquires the voting instruction is before or after the threshold time for switching the content of the privilege to be given to the voter. Judgment (S14). When the privilege giving unit 113 determines that the time when the instruction acquisition unit 112 acquires the voting instruction is before the threshold time point (that is, the first time point) (YES in S14), the privilege giving unit 113 grants the first privilege (S15). .. On the other hand, when the privilege giving unit 113 determines that the time when the instruction acquisition unit 112 acquires the voting instruction is after the threshold time (that is, the second time) (NO in S14), the second privilege is smaller than the first privilege. 2 Benefits are granted (S16).

<Modification example>
FIG. 10 is a diagram showing a predicted voting target table according to a modified example. In FIG. 10, the predictor makes a plurality of forecasts, and the number of selecters and the bet amount are associated with each forecast. In this case, the privilege granting unit 113 is among a plurality of voters who have instructed to vote for the same voting target as some of the voting targets specified by the predictor selected by the voter. From the privilege given to the voter who acquired the voting instruction at the first time point by the instruction acquisition unit 112 to the voter who acquired the voting instruction at the second time point after the first time point. May also give great benefits. By operating the privilege granting unit 113 in this way, even if the predictor predicts a plurality of voting targets, it is possible to prevent the voting for the same player from being too concentrated.
