Each character data Q includes identification information QA, state information QB, and a parameter QC. The identification information QA is a code uniquely assigned to the character (for example, the name of the character). The parameter QC is a variable applied to the game. For example, a variable relating to the ability of the character such as level, attack power, defense power, and growth level (experience value) is designated as the parameter QC. As the game progresses due to the achievement of various events, the character's growth level increases, and the level, attack power, and defense power increase each time the growth level reaches a threshold value.

The state information QB in FIG. 2 is information (flag) indicating whether the character corresponds to the initial state or the use state. The initial state means a state in which the character parameter QC is maintained at a predetermined initial value, and the use state means a state in which the character parameter QC can be changed and a state in which the parameter QC is actually changed. Specifically, the state information QB is set to a numerical value “0” when the character is in an initial state, and is set to a numerical value “1” when the character is in a use state.

Further, the storage device 44 of FIG. 1 stores image data D of an image (character image) of each character that can appear in the game. Furthermore, the storage device 44 stores sports data S related to the play content of a sports game. In the present embodiment, the sports data S is input by the administrator operating the input device 48. For example, when the sport is baseball, score data indicating a score, result data indicating a game result, attack data indicating the content of an attack, and special data indicating a special play may be included. Match results include goodbye wins, draws, and winning teams, attack content includes home runs, hits, steals, etc. , And fine play can be included. Of these, the score data is input by the administrator using the input device 48 when the front or back of the inning is completed. FIG. 3 shows an example of the score data. In the initial state, “NULL” is recorded, and the score is recorded when the front or back of the inning is completed. In the illustration of FIG. 1, the means for storing the game data G and the sports data S and the means for storing the image data D are realized by a single storage device 44, but each means is realized by a plurality of separate storage devices. It can also be realized.

The display data is, for example, HTML (HyperTextperMarkup Language) format data including information (for example, a file name) of characters and hyperlinks and character images constituting the game screen. The control device 22 of the terminal device 12 displays a game screen on the display device 32 in accordance with display data received from the server device 14 via the communication device 26.

1 gives a character to the player when a predetermined event (hereinafter referred to as “character giving event”) occurs in the game. The character granting event is, for example, an event for acquiring a character from a treasure box found by searching for a cave, or an event for acquiring a character such as a monster by a predetermined lottery process. When the character granting event occurs, the character granting unit 54 determines any one of a plurality of types of characters by a lottery process, and then grants it to the player. The information management unit 56 updates the game data G stored in the storage device 44 as the game progresses.

An event for acquiring a character by a predetermined lottery process can be executed in exchange for 100 points by the player operating the lottery button B6, for example. Here, the point is a numerical value of the exchange value at which an item on the game can be purchased. Then, when communication such as greetings and comments between friends in the game is performed via the game system 100, 20 points are given only once a day. For this reason, if there are 20 friends, 400 points can be acquired in one day by communicating with each friend.

Further, the server device 14 has a function of generating a special event with a limited period on the game in conjunction with broadcast contents of various sports games. Specifically, when a predetermined play occurs during a sports game, the administrator operates the input device 48 to input the predetermined play. The input instruction unit 57 uses the communication device 46 for the terminal device 12 to the player on the condition that an update request from the terminal device 12 is received when a predetermined play is input by the input device 48. Display data that prompts a predetermined input is transmitted. The broadcast only needs to provide the contents of the sports game to a large number of people, and may be any of TV broadcast, radio broadcast, and Internet broadcast.
Note that the input instruction unit 57 does not require that an update request is received from the terminal device 12, and transmits display data from the server device 14 to the terminal device 12 when a predetermined play is input by the input device 48. You may make it do.

The input instruction unit 57 monitors the content of the sports data S in the storage device 44, and determines that a predetermined play has been input when the sports data S indicates a predetermined play. The update request is transmitted to the server device 14 when the player selects an update button displayed on the display device 32 of the terminal device 12.

When the sport is baseball, the predetermined play may be that the attack has ended on the back or front of each inning (first aspect), or one or more points on the back or front of each inning There may be a score (second aspect).

When the predetermined play is the first mode, the input instruction unit 57 receives the update request after the score data constituting the sports data S is recorded in the storage device 44 at the time when the front or back of the inning is finished. Then, display data that prompts the player to make a predetermined input is transmitted to the terminal device 12. When the predetermined play is the second mode, the input instruction unit 57 records the score data constituting the sports data S in the storage device 44 when the front or back of the inning is finished, When the score to be shown indicates one or more points, when an update request is received, display data that prompts the player for a predetermined input is transmitted to the terminal device 12.

For example, a special page screen shown in FIG. 4 is displayed on the display device 32 of the terminal device 12. An input box B1 is displayed on the special page, and the player is prompted to input the previous attack score as a predetermined input. After the player inputs the score into the input box B1, the input data indicating the score is transmitted to the server device 14 by selecting the transmission button B2. In this example, in addition to the input box B1, a message prompting an input such as “Please enter the score of the last four times and get rewards” is displayed. However, if the player is informed of the rules for giving rewards by some method, it is sufficient that there is no such message, and only the input box B1 may be displayed. In this way, the input instruction unit 57 prompts a predetermined input to the terminal device 12.

Next, the determination unit 58 shown in FIG. 1 determines whether or not the player's operation on the terminal device 12 is a predetermined input. Specifically, it is determined whether or not the input data indicating the score input by the player's operation on the terminal device 12 matches the score indicated by the score data stored in the storage device 44.

Next, when the determination condition is affirmed by the determination unit 58, the privilege grant unit 59 grants a predetermined privilege on the game to the player. In this example, for example, when the score is “1”, points are given according to the score, such as 500 points when the score is “1” and 1000 points when the score is “2”. Specifically, the point data GP stored in the storage device 44 in association with the identification information of the player is read, and the point data GP obtained by adding the acquired points is newly generated, and the new point data GP is used. The stored contents of the storage device 44 are updated. In this way, since the privilege granted to the player is linked to the score of the sport game, the player can be interested in the content of the game. As a result, the audience rating of relay broadcast can be improved.

Next, the function of the input instruction unit 57 executed by the control device 42 will be described with reference to FIG. This process is executed at a predetermined cycle. First, the control device 42 determines whether or not score data has been input (S10). That is, it is determined whether or not the score data on the front or back of the inning that is in progress has been updated from “NULL” to a numerical value (including 0 points) indicating the score. If no score data is input, the process is terminated. On the other hand, when the administrator inputs the score data using the input device 48, the determination condition is affirmed, and the control device 42 stores the score data in the storage device 44 (S11).

Thereafter, the control device 42 determines whether or not a condition for prompting an input is satisfied (S12). For example, when the predetermined play is the second mode and it is set that there is one or more points on the back or front of each inning, the control device 42 stores it in the storage device 44 in step S11. It is determined whether or not the score indicated by the score data is 1 or more. When the condition for prompting the input is not satisfied, the control device 42 ends the process. On the other hand, when the conditions for prompting input are satisfied, the control device 42 generates display data for the special page described with reference to FIG. 4 (S13). In this way, by setting that a predetermined play has one or more points on the back or front of each inning, it is possible to prompt the player for a predetermined input when there is a score. . If the predetermined play is the first mode, step S12 may be omitted and the process may proceed to step S13.

Next, the control device 42 determines whether or not an update request has been received (S14). If an update request has been received, the control device 42 further determines whether or not it is a reception period (S15). When the timing at which the update request is received is the acceptance period, and the determination condition in step S15 is affirmed, the control device 42 transmits the display data of the special page to the terminal device 12 using the communication device 46 (step S16). ). On the other hand, if the timing at which the update request is received is not the acceptance period and the determination condition of step S15 is negative, the control device 42 transmits display data of the normal page to the terminal device 12 using the communication device 46 ( Step S17).

Next, with reference to FIG. 6, functions of the determination unit 58 and the privilege granting unit 59 executed by the control device 42 will be described. This process is executed at a predetermined cycle. First, the control device 42 determines whether or not input data indicating a score has been input (S20). If the input data is not received, the determination condition is denied and the process ends. On the other hand, when the input data is received from the terminal device 12, the determination condition is affirmed, and the control device 42 advances the process to step S21. In step S21, the control device 42 determines whether or not the current time is the acceptance period (S21).

If the current time is not the acceptance period, the control device 42 ends the process. For example, even if the display data of the special page is transmitted to the terminal device 12 in the reception period in step S16, if the timing at which the player selects the transmission button B2 has passed the reception period, the control device 42 Ends the process. On the other hand, when the present is the acceptance period, the control device 42 reads the score data from the storage device 44 (S22). Further, the control device 42 determines whether or not the score indicated by the input data matches the score indicated by the score data (S23). And the control apparatus 42 gives the point according to a score, when a score is in agreement (S24), and complete | finishes a process in the case of a mismatch.

As described above, in the first embodiment, the input instructing unit 57 of the server device 14 transmits display data that prompts the player to input the score in conjunction with the change of the front or back of the inning to the terminal device 12, and the player Points that can be used on the game as bonuses when the correct score is entered. In this way, by generating opportunities for granting benefits in the game in conjunction with the progress of sports matches, it is not possible to know the reception period for entering scores and points unless you watch sports broadcasts. The rate can be improved. In addition, it is possible to prompt the user who does not know the game to use it.
Further, when a predetermined play occurs during a sports game, the player is prompted to perform a predetermined input to the terminal, so that the player can be interested in the occurrence of the predetermined play during the sports game. As a result, it is possible to improve the audience rating of sports broadcast broadcasts. Furthermore, since the reception period can be determined in conjunction with the sport game in the server device 14, the audience rating of the relay broadcast can be improved.

The reception period employed in the present embodiment includes the following modes.
First, the reception period may be a partial period or a whole period from the end of one front or back of the inning to the start of the front or back of the next inning. For example, it is assumed that the score data is recorded as 3 points after the attack of the 4 times table is finished as shown in FIG. In this case, as shown in FIG. 7, a partial period (for example, “TP” shown in the figure) from time T1 at which the four times of tables are completed to time T4 at which the next five innings are started. Alternatively, the entire period TA may be the reception period.

Second, the reception period may be a partial period or the entire period from the end of one front or back of the inning to the end of the front or back of the next inning. In this case, as shown in FIG. 8, a partial period (for example, “TP” shown in the figure) from time T1 when the four times of tables are ended to time T5 when the next five innings are completed, Alternatively, the entire period TA may be the reception period.

Thirdly, after a certain input is prompted due to the occurrence of a certain predetermined play during the reception period, until the next predetermined input is prompted due to the occurrence of the next predetermined play It is good also as a partial period or all periods. For example, when hitting a home run is a predetermined play, the acceptance period is from one home run to the next home run.
As described above, the reception period can be a period of various modes linked to the progress of the sport game, and the audience rating of the relay broadcast can be improved.

<B: Second Embodiment>
The game system 100 according to the second embodiment is the same as that of the first embodiment shown in FIG. 1 except for the display data of the special page transmitted from the input instruction unit 57 to the terminal device 12 and the specific operation of the determination unit 58. This is the same as the game system 100.

The input instruction unit 57 uses the communication device 46 for the terminal device 12 on the condition that it has received an update request from the terminal device 12 after determining that a predetermined play has been input by the input device 48. Display data for prompting the player to perform a predetermined input. FIG. 9 shows an example of a special page screen that the input instruction unit 57 transmits to prompt the player to input. As shown in the figure, together with the content of the game, a reception button B3 and a message “You can get the reward for the last four times” are displayed on the screen. As a result, the player is prompted to select the accept button B3 in the terminal device 12. Even when the message is not displayed and only the accept button B3 is displayed, the player is prompted to select the accept button B3 as a predetermined input. As described above, the input instruction unit 57 has a function of prompting a predetermined input to the terminal device 12.

In the first embodiment, by allowing a player to input points during a reception period that cannot be known unless a sports broadcast broadcast is viewed, the broadcast broadcast and the game are linked to improve the broadcast audience rating. It was. On the other hand, in the second embodiment, the player can acquire a privilege simply by selecting the reception button B3. In this case, the player's input is simplified, but even if the reception button B3 is selected only during the reception period when it is impossible to know if the user has not watched the sports broadcast broadcast, the sports game and the game are linked. The audience rating of relay broadcast can be improved.

FIG. 10 shows a process executed by the control device 42 in order to realize the functions of the determination unit 58 and the privilege granting unit 59 in the second embodiment. This process is the same as the process of the first embodiment described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG. 6, except that step S22 for reading score data and step S23 for determining score coincidence are excluded. That is, whether or not points can be given is determined depending on whether or not the timing at which the input data indicating that the player has selected the accept button B3 (that a predetermined input has been made) is received is the acceptance period.
More specifically, in the case of a browser game, when the accept button B3 is selected, the terminal device 12 accesses a specific page provided by the server device 14. For this reason, the determination part 58 can determine with having received the input data which shows that the predetermined | prescribed input was made, for example because the terminal device 12 accessed the specific page.

As described above, when the server device 14 of the second embodiment receives that a predetermined play has occurred during a sporting game, the input instruction that prompts the player to operate the reception button B3 during the predetermined reception period. When the determination condition is affirmed by the determination unit 58 and the determination unit 58 that determines whether or not the operation on the terminal device 12 of the player is an operation of the accept button B3, a predetermined privilege on the game is given. A privilege granting unit 59 to be given to the player.

As a result, since the reception period is linked to an event during a sports game, it is possible to prompt the user to operate the terminal device 12 while the sports game is in progress. Can be improved.

<C: Modification>
Each of the above-described embodiments can be variously modified. Specific modifications are exemplified below. Two or more modes arbitrarily selected from the following examples can be appropriately combined within a range that does not contradict each other.

(1) In each of the above-described embodiments, the administrator inputs the sports data S such as score data using the input device 48. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the remote location using the communication device 46 is not limited thereto. An administrator may input from the terminal device or the sports data S may be automatically captured. In other words, the server device 14 may be provided with a reception unit that accepts that a predetermined play has occurred during a sports game, either manually or automatically.

(2) In each of the above-described embodiments, the player's operation on the terminal device 12 is performed during the reception period, and it is determined whether or not the operation is a predetermined input. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and it is not essential for the player to operate the terminal device 12 during the reception period. That is, the determination unit 58 determines whether or not the operation of the player on the terminal device 12 is a predetermined input, and the privilege granting unit 59 may grant a predetermined privilege to the player when the determination condition is affirmed. . In this case, the input instruction unit 57 prompts the player to perform a predetermined input to the terminal device 12 when a predetermined play occurs during a sports game, so that the player plays a predetermined play during a sports game. Can interest you. As a result, it is possible to improve the audience rating of sports broadcast broadcasts.

(3) In each of the above forms, the player could not select which team to support, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the team to be supported can be selected. May be. Specifically, the server device 14 prepares a page for notifying an event linked to a sports game such as baseball, and prompts the player to select a team to be supported. When the player operates the terminal device 12 to select a team to be supported, selection information indicating a selection result is transmitted from the terminal device 12 to the server device 14. As shown in FIG. 13, the control device 42 of the server device 14 includes a selection information acquisition unit 62. The selection information acquisition unit 62 stores the selection information in the storage device 44 in association with the identification information of the player.

In this case, the input instruction unit 57 and the determination unit 58 may refer to the selection information, and may be limited to a case where the team on which the player supports the predetermined play is the attacking side. Specifically, when the player supports the team on the front side, the input instructing unit 57 finishes the attack on the front of each inning and determines the score, and then back defense (attack on the back side) The special page data that prompts a predetermined input is transmitted during this period, and the determination unit 58 determines whether the score of the attack on the table matches or the reception button is operated during the reception period corresponding to the attack on the table. That's fine.
In this way, it is possible to make the player have a strong interest in the content of the game because the team to be supported is selected by the player and only when the team that has selected the predetermined play is the attacking side. As a result, the audience rating of relay broadcast can be further improved.

Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 14, the control device 42 of the server device 14 may include a special prize giving unit 63 that gives a predetermined special prize on the game to the player when the team indicated by the selection information wins the game. . For example, when the game result indicated by the result data is “Sayonara wins”, 1000 points, “Win other than Sayonara wins”, 500 points, “Draw”, 200 points, “Defeat” May give 100 points to the player.

Alternatively, the special prize granting unit may grant the right to acquire the character by lottery with reference to the special data. In this case, the control device 42 executes the lottery when the lottery with the highest probability of winning a rare character is the first lottery, the second lottery is the second lottery, and the next highest lottery is the third lottery. Is possible. These lotteries are set to have a higher probability of hitting a rare character than a normal lottery executed by paying points. Then, the special prize granting section grants the first to third lottery rights to the player according to the content of the victory indicated by the special data. For example, the right of the first lottery may be given in the case of “perfect match” and “no hit no-run”, the right of the second lottery in the case of “completely sealed”, and the right of the third lottery in the case of “complete throw”.
Thus, by providing the special prize granting unit, it is possible to give the player a strong interest in the content of the game. As a result, the audience rating of relay broadcast can be further improved.

(4) In each of the above-described forms, as an example, it was explained that the front or back of each inning was completed, or that there were one or more points in each front or back attack of each inning as the predetermined play. . The present invention is not limited to this, and the predetermined play may be that the attack content shows a predetermined result. Further, the predetermined play may be that a specific player's attack has ended. In these cases, the administrator uses the input device 48 to input attack data indicating the contents of the attack. In addition, when the said specific player has the opportunity of a several hit in a game, it may be for every some hit and may be only arbitrary hits. This attack data is stored in the storage device 44 as a part of the sports data S as described in the first embodiment. In addition, when the predetermined play is that a specific player's attack has ended, a predetermined input may be selected from a plurality of options.

Here, when new attack data is recorded in the storage device 44 and the attack content indicated by the attack data indicates a predetermined result, the input instruction unit 57 receives a predetermined button as a predetermined input during a predetermined reception period. The display data of a special page that prompts the user to operate may be transmitted to the terminal device 12. For example, if the predetermined result is a home run, a special page screen shown in FIG. 11 may be displayed. In this case, when the player selects the accept button B4, which is an example of a predetermined button, input data indicating the selection is transmitted from the terminal device 12 to the server device 14. The determination unit 58 of the server device 14 determines whether or not it is a reception period when input data indicating selection of the reception button B4 is received, and the privilege granting unit 59, for example, as a privilege when the determination condition is affirmed Give points. Further, as a case where the predetermined result is a home run or a triple strike, the points to be given may be varied depending on each.
In addition, when the predetermined play is that the attack of a specific player has ended, for example, when the sport is baseball, the screen displays options of “home run”, “hit”, “four dead balls”, and “out” You may make it make it. In this case, when the player selects an option button that is an example of a predetermined button, input data indicating the selected option is transmitted from the terminal device 12 to the server device 14. When the determination unit 58 of the server device 14 receives input data indicating one of the options, the determination unit 58 determines whether it is a reception period, and the privilege granting unit 59 includes the sports data S stored in the storage device 44. For example, points are given as a privilege when the determination condition is affirmed based on whether or not the input data matches.
In addition, the privilege granting unit 59, when a predetermined button (for example, lottery button B6) used in the game is operated in the reception period, compared to when the predetermined button is operated outside the reception period, A privilege may be given to the player so that a game result based on the operation of the predetermined button is advantageous. For example, in an event where a character can be acquired by operating the lottery button B6, the lottery probability of a rare character that is normally set low may be set high as a privilege. Further, in the event of improving the ability of the character, the attack power of the character may be increased. In addition, the privilege grant unit 59 may grant a privilege according to the attack result. For example, when the attack result is “home run”, the attack power may be increased by 100%, and when the attack result is “hit”, the attack power may be increased by 50%.
In this way, the player can be more interested in the content of the game. As a result, the audience rating of relay broadcast can be further improved.

The reception period may be, for example, a fixed time (for example, 10 minutes) from the occurrence of an attack with a predetermined result. Or it is good also as a partial period or all the period after the input instruction | indication part 57 prompts operation of reception button B4 due to a certain home run to prompt operation of reception button B4 due to the next home run. In other words, the reception period is a period from when a predetermined input is prompted due to the occurrence of a certain predetermined play until the next predetermined input is prompted due to the occurrence of the next predetermined play. It may be a partial period or the entire period.
This modification is also suitable for sports other than baseball. For example, the score may be entered in soccer, tennis, American football, rugby, basketball, volleyball, hockey, or a predetermined play result may be used as the predetermined result.
Also in this aspect, even when the reception button B4 is selected only during the reception period when it is impossible to know if the sports broadcast broadcast is not viewed, the broadcast viewing rate can be improved by linking the broadcast and the game. .
Note that the attack content may be replaced with the defense content as the predetermined play, and the defense content may indicate a predetermined result. In this case, the administrator uses the input device 48 to input defense data indicating the contents of the defense. This defensive data is stored in the storage device 44 as a part of the sports data S as described in the first embodiment. For example, as a predetermined result, double play in baseball (going together) and goal saving in soccer can be exemplified.
Moreover, the winning / losing result at the end of the game or the winning / losing result at the end of the relay broadcast may be used as the predetermined play. In this modified example, the race relay of horse racing and boat racing is also suitable in addition to baseball. That is, sports such as horse races and boat races are also included in the sports targeted for relay broadcasting. For example, in the case of a horse racing relay, at the end of the race, after inputting the horse number of 1 to 3 for each race in the input box, the input data indicating the horse number is transmitted to the server device 14 by selecting the send button. The As the reception period, a predetermined time (for example, 3 minutes) may be set.

(5) In each of the above-described forms, it is a condition for granting that the player performs a predetermined input on the terminal device 12 during the reception period. In this case, it is good also as conditions for privilege provision that the identification information which consists of a number and a character is alert | reported with an image or an audio | voice in the relay broadcast of sports, and a player inputs this into the terminal device 12. In the case of voice, it is possible to make a notification in distinction from the live announcement by using the secondary voice.
In this case, when the administrator inputs identification information using the input device 48, the control device 42 stores the identification information in the storage device 44. The input instruction unit 57 transmits display data that prompts the player to input identification information to the terminal device 12 as a predetermined input. For example, a special page screen as shown in FIG. 12 may be displayed on the terminal device 12 and prompted to input identification information in the input box B5. In this case, the privilege granting unit 59 may grant the privilege on condition that the information input in the terminal device 12 matches the identification information stored in the storage device 44.
According to this modification, since the player is required to input the identification information notified in the sports broadcast broadcast on the terminal device 12, the condition for granting the privilege can be improved. Instead of the input device 48, the identification information may be automatically taken into the server device 14 via the communication network 16.

(6) In each of the above-described forms, points according to points are given as benefits, but certain points may be given. The relay broadcast may be a live sport broadcast or a video recording relay. Further, the player can participate from the middle of the relay broadcast, and may quit in the middle. Furthermore, it is not always necessary for the relay broadcast to relay from the beginning to the end of the sport. The present invention can be applied to an inning that is performing broadcast broadcasting.

(7) In each of the above-described embodiments, the control device 22 is controlled to transmit an update request to the server device 14 using the communication device 26 when the player selects an update button displayed on the display device 32. The game screen may be automatically updated every predetermined time on the page showing the game screen. That is, the update request may be made by an operation of the player or may be automatically made.

(8) In each of the above embodiments, the browser game is described as an example of the game. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and a program corresponding to the game is downloaded from the distribution server to the terminal device 12. It may be a game application to be executed. In this case, the display control unit 52 transmits display data necessary for generating a game screen corresponding to the progress of the game by the terminal device 12 from the communication device 46 to the terminal device 12. Moreover, the timing which the privilege provision part 59 or the special prize provision part mentioned above provides a privilege and a special prize may not be immediately after determination conditions are affirmed by the determination part. For example, the privilege granting unit or the special prize granting unit may give the bonus or special prize to the player one day later.
Moreover, it is good also as recording the program for implement | achieving the function in this invention on a computer-readable recording medium, and making a computer system read the program recorded on this recording medium, and performing it. Here, the “computer system” includes an OS and hardware such as peripheral devices. Further, the “computer system” may include a plurality of computer devices connected via a network including a communication line such as the Internet, WAN, LAN, and dedicated line. The “computer-readable recording medium” refers to a storage device such as a flexible medium, a magneto-optical disk, a portable medium such as a ROM or a CD-ROM, and a hard disk incorporated in a computer system. Furthermore, the “computer-readable recording medium” holds a program for a certain period of time, such as a volatile memory (RAM) inside a computer system that becomes a server or a client when the program is transmitted via a network. Including things. The program may be for realizing a part of the functions described above. Furthermore, what can implement | achieve the function mentioned above in combination with the program already recorded on the computer system, what is called a difference file (difference program) may be sufficient. The present invention also relates to a distribution server that distributes a program for realizing the function in the present invention or a part thereof, and a storage medium that is used for distribution by the distribution server and stores the program. It is included in the scope of the invention.
In addition, some or all of the functions described above may be realized as an integrated circuit such as an LSI (Large Scale Integration). Each function described above may be individually made into a processor, or a part or all of them may be integrated into a processor. Further, the method of circuit integration is not limited to LSI, and may be realized by a dedicated circuit or a general-purpose processor. In addition, when an integrated circuit technology that replaces LSI appears due to the advancement of semiconductor technology, an integrated circuit based on the technology may be used.

(9) In each of the embodiments described above, the input instruction unit 57 urges the player to make a predetermined input during the reception period, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, when a player who is watching a game during a sport game operates the terminal device 12 to access an inventory page provided by the server device 14, the input instruction unit 57 displays a predetermined button. Data may be transmitted to the terminal device 12. In this case, the reception period is notified to the display device 32 of the terminal device 12. For example, a message prompting a predetermined input such as “please press the button within 3 minutes from now” is notified by voice or image at the end of each inning. The determination unit 58 determines whether or not a predetermined input has been performed during the reception period, based on whether or not input data indicating that a predetermined button has been operated has been received during the reception period. For example, when the reception period is a predetermined time (for example, 3 minutes) from the end of the front or back of each inning, the determination unit 58 monitors the storage content of the storage device 44, and new score data is stored in the storage device 44. A period until a predetermined time elapses from the storage is managed as a reception period. Alternatively, the manager may set the reception period using the input device 48.
According to this modified example, when a predetermined play occurs during a sport game, the player is prompted to perform a predetermined input to the terminal, so that the player is interested in the occurrence of the predetermined play during the sport game. be able to. In particular, the information given during the electronic bulletin board at the game venue or during the broadcast is information that cannot be known without actually watching the game, and prompts the user to input it to the terminal.
