Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method of calculating the odds of a sports play using data fidelity by using a historical database and extracting the most recent play data and the previous play data, and comparing the extracted play to a set of rules to determine if the data is accurate and should be used to calculate wagering odds or if the data is inaccurate or contains an error which prompts action by the system, such as suspending the current wager market until the data that is received is accurate. Also, the method provides a method of calculating the odds of a sports play using data fidelity by using a historical database and extracting the most recent wager market data or wager odds data and the previous wager market data or wager odd data and compares the data to a set of rules to determine if the data is accurate and if not notifying an administrator of the wagering network or wagering platform of a systematic error or issue.

Abstract: An information processing method and apparatus, a storage medium and an electronic device are provided. A first preset area is provided on a graphical user interface (GUI). A virtual joystick control is provided in the first preset area. In response to a first touch operation in the first preset area, the virtual joystick control is controlled according to the first touch operation. In a process of executing the first touch operation, in response to at least one second touch operation in the first preset area, an initial position of the at least one second touch operation is acquired. When the initial position is located in a second preset area, it is determined that the at least one second touch operation is an invalid operation. When the initial position is located in a third preset area, the virtual joystick control is controlled according to the at least one second touch operation to control the movement of the virtual character.

Abstract: A system for presenting a skill-based game, the system includes at least one server to serve a set of matchups of participants of an event, to a plurality of presentation devices, the plurality of presentation devices displaying the set of matchups on a display; to receive over the wide area network data from the presentation devices characterizing a set of user selected winners of the matchups made by the users; update the event data pertinent to participants in the actual events; using the updated data to calculate and assign payoffs to the users based on fixed payoff odds. A related computer-implemented method provides participant matchups to an operator organizing such a skill-based game.

Abstract: Direction input data and inertial sensor data are acquired from a controller including a direction input section and an inertial sensor. Movement of a player character is controlled on the basis of the direction input data. In addition, a control mode for a position of a cursor is switchable between a first control mode and a second control mode. When the control mode is the first control mode, a position further shifted, based on the inertial sensor data, from a position calculated based on a position and a direction of the player character is set as the position of the cursor. When the control mode is the second control mode, a position shifted, based on the inertial sensor data, within a predetermined range, in a virtual space, including a predetermined position in the virtual space, from the predetermined position is set as the position of the cursor.

Abstract: Many times, users play games to certain places in the game and decide to save the game and resume it later. When users resume the game, they have to wait for it to load, wade through menus to select the saved game, and wait again for the game to resume. The introduced technique directly suspends and resume games that are rendered on a cloud server based on user initiated suspend and resume control commands. As the games are directly suspended and resumed, the users can skip past menu and screen loading. The introduced technique can track game information of multiples users in cloud tokens, and can move these cloud tokens from one memory location to another based on the user initiated suspend and resume control commands.

Abstract: An information processing method and apparatus in a Virtual Reality (VR) game, and a processor are provided. The method includes that: a first move operation of a VR controller in a real environment is acquired; a move of a virtual object in a VR game scene is controlled according to the first move operation, and a calculation factor is calculated according to the first move operation; and when the move of the virtual object in the VR game scene satisfies a preset attack damage trigger condition, damage to an attack target in the VR game scene is calculated according to the calculation factor. The present disclosure solves technical problems in the related art that an operation mode of swinging a weapon to launch an attack in a VR game scene is easy to cause fatigue of a game player and a calculation mode of damage lacks accuracy.

Abstract: Multiplayer video games involve multiple players playing using either a single computer system or multiple computer systems connected together. While a first player of the multiplayer game is playing the multiplayer game, the first player's actions are tracked and stored. When the first player quits or stops responding before the multiplayer game has completed, the first player is replaced by a computer-simulated version of the first player that selects its actions based on probabilities calculated from the tracked actions of the first player. The multiplayer game is thus able to continue without interruption or disruption, and the first player's playstyle is preserved.
