Abstract: The server device periodically calculates a contribution degree to a network game as an active level for each participating user during progress of the network game, so that a ranking for each user is determined and displayed. Furthermore, the server device adjusts a parameter for each participating user in accordance with the ranking determined during progress of the game.

Abstract: A method for computing a social game in a social media providing a computing environment in which members are visualized with their avatars respectively associated with the members and the members socialize. An environment in which the members play a master game and a slave game is provided, in which the slave game is a battle card game. Playing history data of the master game and playing history data of the slave game are stored and managed. The playing history data card information of cards possessed by each of the members is described; and a process of managing the slave game is provided, the process including a card-issuing process in which a member-avatar card that is used for playing the card game and is derived from each member is issued and is possessed by any of the members.

Abstract: A server device receives a request for participation in a network game through a communication line, integrates user information of each user terminal from which the server receives the participation request, generates matching information of each user participating in the same network game to be started at the same time, and notifies the generated matching information to each terminal device. The matching information is different for each terminal device of notification destination so as to be displayed as if the terminal device of the notification destination made the earliest participation request, regardless of order of the participation request.
