Systems and methods for avoiding spoilers in presenting recording prompts relating to a competition
Systems and methods are described for a media guidance application (e.g., implemented on a user device) that avoids spoilers in presenting recording prompts relating to a competition by scheduling presentation of notifications according to the user profile.
1 . A method comprising:
accessing a user profile data;
identifying, based at least in part on the retrieved user profile data, a participant of interest of a plurality of participants that are participating in a multi-round elimination competition;
identifying a plurality of media assets depicting games of the multi-round elimination competition in which the participant of interest played that are to be stored;
determining that the participant of interest has been eliminated in a particular round of the multi-round elimination competition and did not participate in at least one subsequent round of the multi-round elimination competition;
generating for display: (a) identifiers of the games in which the participant of interest played; and (b) phantom identifiers of games of the subsequent round of the competition in which the participant of interest did not participate, wherein the identifiers and phantom identifiers indicate that a status of whether associated content is stored is hidden to prevent spoilers.
2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the identifying the participant of interest comprises accessing a search criteria from the user profile data specifying a team or player participating in the multi-round elimination competition.
3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the identifying the participant of interest comprises searching the user profile data to identify a team or player that is associated with the user.
4 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
receiving a selection, from a user associated with the user profile data, of a selected identifier of the identifiers;
based at least in part on the receiving, generating for display content associated with the selected identifier.
5 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
receiving a selection, from a user associated with the user profile data, of a selected phantom identifier of the phantom identifiers;
based at least in part on the receiving, generating for display an indication that the participant of interest has been eliminated.
6 . A method comprising:
accessing a user profile data;
identifying, based at least in part on the retrieved user profile data, a participant of interest of a plurality of participants that are participating in a multi-round elimination competition;
identifying a plurality of media assets depicting games of the multi-round elimination competition in which the participant of interest played that are to be stored;
determining that the participant of interest has not been eliminated until a final round of the multi-round elimination competition;
generating for display: (a) identifiers of the games in which the participant of interest played, wherein the identifiers indicate that a status of whether associated content is stored is hidden to prevent spoilers.
7 . The method of claim 6 , wherein the identifying the participant of interest comprises accessing a search criteria from the user profile data specifying a team or player participating in the multi-round elimination competition.
8 . The method of claim 6 , wherein the identifying the participant of interest comprises searching the user profile data to identify a team or player that is associated with the user.
9 . The method of claim 6 , further comprising:
receiving a selection, from a user associated with the user profile data, of a selected identifier of the identifiers;
based at least in part on the receiving, generating for display content associated with the selected identifier.
10 . A system comprising:
control circuitry configured to:
access a user profile data;
identify, based at least in part on the retrieved user profile data, a participant of interest of a plurality of participants that are participating in a multi-round elimination competition;
identify a plurality of media assets depicting games of the multi-round elimination competition in which the participant of interest played that are to be stored;
determine that the participant of interest has been eliminated in a particular round of the multi-round elimination competition and did not participate in at least one subsequent round of the multi-round elimination competition;
generate for display, via input/output circuitry: (a) identifiers of the games in which the participant of interest played; and (b) phantom identifiers of games of the subsequent round of the competition in which the participant of interest did not participate, wherein the identifiers and phantom identifiers indicate that a status of whether associated content is stored is hidden to prevent spoilers.
11 . The system of claim 10 , wherein the control circuitry is further configured to:
identify the participant of interest based on accessing a search criteria from the user profile data specifying a team or player participating in the multi-round elimination competition.
12 . The system of claim 10 , wherein the control circuitry is further configured to:
identify the participant of interest based on searching the user profile data to identify a team or player that is associated with the user.
13 . The system of claim 10 , wherein the control circuitry is further configured to:
receive a selection, from a user associated with the user profile data, of a selected identifier of the identifiers;
based at least in part on the receiving, generate for display, via the input/output circuitry, content associated with the selected identifier.
14 . The system of claim 10 , wherein the control circuitry is further configured to:
receive a selection, from a user associated with the user profile data, of a selected phantom identifier of the phantom identifiers;
based at least in part on the receiving, generate for display, via the input/output circuitry, an indication that the participant of interest has been eliminated.
