Abstract: Various game systems and methods enable players to create one or more player defined games. At least a portion of the player defined games may be played in one or more secondary games. The player defined games may include one or more remotely located players. The game systems and methods may use an improved data communication process with one or more secondary game servers to obtain data related to one or more secondary games more efficiently. In some implementations, the improved data communication process enables more efficient evaluation of one or more player defined games.
