Standardized scoring wagering system
View Patent ↗A network distributed processing system is disclosed, including a mobile computing device connected to a controller by a network, wherein the mobile computing device is constructed to execute an entertainment game; a server connected to the controller via a communication link, the server constructed to determine a result of a wagering event and provide the results of the wagering event to the controller; the controller connected to the mobile computing device by the network and connected to the server by the communication link, wherein the controller is constructed to: determine when a wagering event occurs during play of the entertainment game; request a resolution to the wagering event; receive a score value; receive an amount of real credit committed; map the score value to a standardized score value using the score value and the real credit commitment; and update an account of the player with the standardized score value.
1. A network distributed processing system, comprising:
a mobile computing device connected to a controller by a network, wherein the mobile computing device is constructed to:
execute an entertainment game and to have score values that directly correlate to a standardized score;
receive, from the controller the standardized score value; and
display the standardized score value;
a server connected to the controller via a communication link, the server constructed to determine a result of a wagering event using a random number generator and provide the results of the wagering event to the controller;
the controller connected to the mobile computing device by the network and connected to the server by the communication link, wherein the controller is constructed to:
determine when a wagering event occurs during play of the entertainment game;
request, from the server via the communication link, a resolution to the wagering event;
receive, from the mobile computing device by the network, a native game score value;
receive, from the mobile computing device by the network, an amount of real credit committed;
map the native game score value to a standardized score value using the score value using a one to one correlation and the real credit commitment;
distribute the standardized score value to the player through the mobile computing device; and
update an account of a player with the standardized score value.
2. The network distributed processing system of claim 1 , wherein the controller adjusts the mapping of the score value to the standardized score by also applying a linear mapping of the score value to a standardized score in a particular range.
3. The network distributed processing system of claim 1 , wherein the controller adjusts the mapping of the score value to the standardized score by also applying a nonlinear mapping of the score value to a standardized score in a particular range.
4. The network distributed processing system of claim 1 , wherein the controller is constructed to map the score value to the standardized score by further applying a weighting application to the score value to determine a standardized score within a range of standardized scores wherein the weighting application is based upon a distribution of players against the score values.
5. The network distributed processing system of claim 1 , wherein the controller is constructed to map the score value to the standardized score by further applying a formulaic conversion to the score value to determine the standardized score wherein the formulaic conversion takes into account at least one entertainment game metric.
