Apparatus, method, and program product for facilitating game play in an electronic lottery game network

摘要

At least one pool (22) of game play records (23) is stored at a central processing system (12). Each game play record includes a record index (24) selected from a set of unique index values, each associated with a different result type. A record index (24) associated with a particular game play record (23) is communicated from the central processing system (12) to the player terminal (14) in response to a game play request which a player has entered at the player terminal. The player terminal (14) responds to the received record index (24) by generating display commands using data at the player terminal to produce a graphic representation at the player terminal. This graphic representation is consistent with the result type associated with the index value comprising the particular record index (24) which has been communicated to the player terminal (14).
