The number of images posted to each block is determined by the image of the icon. A user clicks the icon of the block to which the eight images belong, whereby sub-tournament of this block is performed. The eight images before competition are aligned in row so that all competition results of the sub-tournament can be confirmed, and the image of a winner is disposed on the upper side of two competitive images. The overall ranks of all images of the tournament are determined based on the total sum of level-based valid points of each image. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT |
