Abstract: There is provided a web application and/or software enabling one million users to engage in real-time tournaments that center around trivia and/or entertainment-oriented animations, graphics, text and videos. The web application accepts up to one million players in increments of 100 participants per web page and selectively places Internet users in 10 rows, categorized by Internet connection speeds. The tournaments consist of 1, 2 or 3 rounds with two segments in each round. The web application will record the first correct answer from one participant in a row of ten participants. Each winner [profile image] will be highlighted in his/her row and move on until one winner is identified. The web application will provide a chat area, video player, web cam features and private request chat interactions before each game start time.
