Golden Tee Golf ’99 - 36 APPENDIX C ITS Tournament Overview The ITS, or International Tournament System , is a networked system of game machines that are hooked up to a central computer via normal telephone lines. Each dedicated tournament game contains special tournament software and communications hardware that offers players a choice of regular or tournament play. Tournament play allows players from all over the U.S. to compete for prizes. Various skill-based tournaments will be held throughout the year, offering challenges and prizes to players across the country. The ITS was designed to be as hands-free as possible for the operator and location. Each machine has special communications hardware that easily hooks up to a normal telephone jack. Each game machine is programmed to make a short, toll-free phone call during off hours. The toll-free number that the game dials costs nothing to the operator or location. The tournament machines call the ITS central computer and download statistics from that days tournament play. During the same call, the central computer sends the new tournament leaders, previously gathered from all of the games in the tournament, back to the game machine. Then, throughout the day, the new national and local tournament leaders are viewed on each game monitor during attract sequences. The ITS is capable of supporting over 100,000 tournament machines on-line. The ITS will feature a number of national tournaments throughout the year. These tournaments will vary in length from weekly to monthly, with top prize awards ranging from one thousand to potentially one-hundred thousand dollars or more. Before each tournament begins, a message is sent to the LED sign attached to each cabinet, announcing the start dates and prize structure of the upcoming tournament. At the specified date, the tournament automatically begins on all of the valid tournament games. The entry fee to join the tournament is about twice the cost as regular play, and is entered into the game by the player each time he/she plays. About half of this tournament income is shared by the operator and location. The rest of the tournament fee is sent to the ITS for national, regional and local prize funds, as well as administrative expenses. The ITS receives a portion of tournament plays only. Any earnings collected from regular and practice play is not considered tournament income. This income is split between the operator and location as they see fit. Connecting to the ITS has been made as simple and complete as possible. The game hooks up to a normal telephone jack using regular telephone wire. Once plugged in, an automatic setup procedure logs the game machine as an active tournament terminal. A simple form must also be filled out, detailing some specific information for that machine, such as game ID number, location name, preferred time for phoning into the central computer, and pertinent billing information. The ITS was designed with the operator in mind. Each ITS-compatible game can act just like a regular video game on his route. The games can be moved to different locations and will play a regular, non-tournament game even when not hooked into the ITS. Location change forms and off-line notices are supplied in your operator forms package, to keep your tournament activities up to date.
