Abstract

Un système de présentation de réussite est proposé qui associe les réussites d'utilisation sur chaque chaque terminal de fourniture de service à chaque terminal de fourniture de service de sorte que ces informations puissent être comprises. Le système de présentation de réussite comprend : un serveur central (3) qui est connecté par l'intermédiaire d'un réseau (6) à une pluralité de machines de jeu (GM) et à des terminaux d'utilisateur (8); et un dispositif de mémorisation (11) qui mémorise des données de gestion d'identifiant de mémoire (22) indiquant l'identifiant de case correspondant à chaque machine de jeu (GM) et l'adresse pour ladite machine de jeu, et les données de jeu (25) indiquant des identifiants d'utilisateur pour identifier chaque utilisateur et des informations de réussite pour spécifier chaque machine de jeu (GM) qui a des réussites d'utilisation. Le système de présentation de réussite : identifie les réussites d'utilisation qui correspondent à un utilisateur spécifique; détermine la position de chaque machine de jeu (GM) sur la base du résultat d'identification et des données de gestion d'identifiant de mémoire (22); et, sur la base de ces résultats d'identification, associe les informations relatives aux réussites d'utilisation de l'utilisateur spécifique avec la position de chaque machine de jeu (GM) qui correspond aux dites réussites d'utilisation, et présente le résultat par l'intermédiaire d'un terminal d'utilisateur (8).
