The present invention involves an interactive sports game reality system in which members of the public can collectively influence at least one factor affecting an upcoming sports game event. A receiver receives input data from members of the public in connection with at least one factor. A processor compiles the received input data and determines the overall result regarding the at least one factor. An output device outputs the determined overall result for implementation at or during the sports game event. The at least one factor comprises at least one option, each option having an associated data code to facilitate the selection and communication of the option for each factor. The receiver receives input data from members of the public in connection with the at least one factor during a predetermined period before the sports game event, in which case the at least one factor is selected from the group comprising venue for the sports game event, the teams participating in the sports game event, the referees adjudicating the sports game event, the composition of teams participating in the sports game event and rules governing the sports game event. In one version, for example, the predetermined period before the sports game event is a TV programme, or one of a number of TV programmes, during which the members of the public can send input data to the receiver. |
