Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
[Problem] To provide an auto scorer that can display, in real-time, mid-game rankings and the rolls needed to decide the outcome, and that can increase the degree to which players and spectators etc. can understand the game situation. [Solution] When a bowler begins a roll and the result of the roll is detected by a scanner 1, the detection result is transmitted as data to a host computer 4 via a bowler console 2 assigned to each lane, and the scores of the bowlers are tallied. The scores of the bowlers are transmitted to a sub computer 3 connected to or housed within the host computer 4, possible maximum scores are calculated by adding to the scores of the roll results the scores that would be attained by knocking down all pins with no misses in subsequent rolls, and the rolls needed to decide the rankings, point differences, and outcome are determined. The rolls needed to decide the calculated rankings, point differences, and outcome are displayed on a lane monitor 9, a ranking table monitor 10, a televised lane screen 11, a televised player TELOP 12, and a televised ranking table screen 13.
