A system may be configured to generate a leaderboard. Content may be presented via each of a plurality of contestants to a plurality of displays of a plurality of users. A plurality of votes may be obtained based on each of the presentations. A score may be determined for each of the contestants based on the respective votes. Each of the scores may be reduced based on an amount of elapsed time since the respective determination. Finally information identifying the contestant having the highest score may be output.

Method and system for presenting in-game objectives in a virtual game. For example, the method includes determining first real-world driving characteristics based upon first real-world telematics data of a first real-world user, determining second real-world driving characteristics based upon second real-world telematics data of a second real-world user, generating a shared virtual map based upon the first real-world driving characteristics and the second real-world driving characteristics, generating a shared in-game objective based upon the shared virtual map, presenting the shared in-game objective to a first virtual character associated with the first real-world driving characteristics of the first real-world user and a second virtual character associated with the second real-world driving characteristics of the second real-world user, and allowing the first virtual character and the second virtual character to accomplish the shared in-game objective in the shared virtual map.

A control program for a game device having a storage unit configured to store points associated with players. The game device may receive a request by a player to designate at least a portion of the points associated with the first player as region points of the first player, which may in turn be correlated with a game region designated by the first player. When the first player has the most points for a particular game region, the game region may be set to be a region of the first player. When the first player disposes a first and second game region in a predetermined arrangement, such that the first and second game region has game regions between them, the game regions between the first and second game region may have their point values swapped to put the first player on top.

A content-generation guidance system for assisting a user in generating digital content, the system comprising a content analysis unit operable to analyse a first set of pre-existing user-generated content to identify one or more aspects of the content, a correlation identification unit operable to identify a correlation between the one or more identified aspects of the first set of content and user ratings of that content, and a content modification unit operable, when a user is generating new digital content, to identify one or more aspects of the new digital content for modification in dependence upon the identified correlation or correlations.
