Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2006079357A1] The invention relates to methods for the unambiguous personal association of at least one autonomous storage unit (10) with at least one player in a score keeping device (20) in order to store at least one status of a game, especially a computer game, network game, or trading card game. The inventive method is characterized in that an unambiguous identification feature that is effective in the game environment is allocated in a way clearly indicating the player's action to a game status, particularly an amount of properties of a game piece created and/or guided by the player and/or an amount of game situations created and/or managed by the player within the group of players detected by the score keeping device, said game status being created and/or managed by the player, being stored in the at least one autonomous storage unit, and unambiguously identifying the player. For this purpose, data is exchanged in a registering manner between the at least one autonomous storage unit and a game manager's storage unit (30) which manages the at least one autonomous storage unit. As a result of said data exchange, a first register data set (40) that characterizes the player and is linked to the game status is created, stored, and processed in the game manager's storage unit (30) while a second register data set (41) which is comparable to the first register data set and is linked to the stored game status is created, stored, and processed in the autonomous storage unit.
