Data processing systems and methods are disclosed for augmenting video content with one or more augmentations to produce augmented video. Elements within video content may be identified by spatiotemporal indices and may have associated values.

Elements may have associated contexts that can be used to determine augmentations and element value, such as a position and/or current use of the element.

Battle Rap currently has no fair voting mechanism to determine the outcome of live rap competitions. Therefore, there is usually no winner or in very rare cases the winner is decided by a select group of judges. The present invention seeks to find a solution to this problem by providing a ‘blockchain’ or decentralized, distributed ledger based voting and gaming system for live competitions.

Some embodiments include a fantasy sports game. In some embodiments, an expected performance value may be determined. In some embodiments, a same player may appear multiple times in a team. Various other embodiments are described.

Systems, methods, and computer program products are provided for implementing a fantasy sports game that shares the same objective as an actual sporting contest and that is based on individual plays from actual games executed in the fantasy sports game according to selection criteria. Fantasy game play is based on the outcomes of individual plays, instead of aggregate stats and/or fantasy points, which allows for a fantasy game with realistic game flow. The method executes plays, without active participation from a fantasy player, based on selection criteria which compare the current fantasy contest situation to the situation of the actual sporting contest when the outcome was recorded and applies the outcome to the fantasy game from the actual play which is most similar in situation. The result is a fantasy game carried out through individual plays which can be viewed like an actual sporting event.
