There is disclosed a system for conducting multi-member group competitions involving physical exertion, the system includes a competition server that serves to designate a set of parameters for a competition involving at least two competing groups of individuals engaged in physical activity, the set of parameters defining a win condition requiring physical activity to be completed by at least two separate individuals within each group. The system further receives data representative of physical activity of multiple individuals in a first group, receives data representative of physical activity of multiple individuals in a second group, determines whether the win condition has been satisfied by the first group or the second group, and identifies a winner as the first group or the second group that completed the win condition.

Method, apparatus, device, and storage-medium for data processing based on location information are provided. The method for data processing based on location information includes: obtaining first location information from a first account; determining a geographic label to which the first location information belongs, and associating the first account with a first-level group corresponding to the geographic label; receiving an interaction request from the first account; matching, in response to the interaction request, at least one second account to interact with the first account in the first-level group associated with the first account; and determining that the first account and the at least one second account belong to a same interaction group.
