  • Publication number: 20230249081
    Abstract: Systems and methods for prioritizing content packets based on a dynamically updated list of content filtering rules are described. A system is configured to identify an application executing on a client device to which to transmit content, the application associated with an account and determine that the application is configured with a configuration setting to apply a content filtering policy corresponding to a list of players including one or more players included in one or more lineups associated with the account. The system can receive a content item from a content source and determine one or more player tags associated with the content item. The system can determine that the content item includes a player tag corresponding to a player included in the list of players and transmit the content item to the client device for insertion in a content feed provided by the application responsive to the determination.

  • Publication number: 20230158407
    Abstract: Systems and methods for dynamically generating event cards from message streams is provided. A system receives a message of a sequence of messages from a content source, determine, from the message, the game condition of the game, compare the game condition with a previous game condition and determines events that occurred in the game based on the message and the comparison. The system can determine, for each event of the one or more events, an event type and individual player contributions of one or more players and assign, for each event of the one or more events, to each player that contributed in the event, a points allocation corresponding to the player's contribution in the event based on the points assignment policy and the event type. The system can generate event cards and transmit the event cards to emote devices according to a content filtering policy.
