摘要： Embodiments of the invention allow a player to have a unique gaming experience, different than other players, even when playing on the same network. A game may span several gaming sessions. States of a game, for example a bonus game, may be stored when the player decides to stop playing the game. When the player initiates a next gaming session, at the same or another location, the previous state of the game is re-loaded onto the gaming machine and the player returns to the previous state. Further, additional bonuses can be implemented because the network knows the identity and other information about the player. The additional bonuses may be unique to that player. Messages particular to a player are exchanged between a gaming device and a gaming network.

摘要： A gaming system and method which provides a community group event to a plurality of players at a plurality of the gaming devices in the gaming system. Each gaming device participating in the group event is associated with an individual group event eligibility timer. Such individual group event eligibility timers regularly decrement based on time and may increment based on one or more aspects of the player's gaming experience, such as wagers placed. If the individual group event eligibility timer associated with a gaming device participating in the group event lapses before the conclusion of a group event timer or mode, that gaming device is eliminated from the group event. Upon the conclusion of the group event, a group event award is shared amongst the players at the remaining or non-eliminated gaming devices (i.e., the gaming devices associated with individual group event eligibility timers with any amount of remaining time).

摘要翻译： 一种游戏系统和方法，其向游戏系统中的多个游戏设备向多个玩家提供社区群组活动。 参与组事件的每个游戏设备与单独的组事件资格定时器相关联。 这样的个人团体事件资格定时器根据时间定期地减少，并且可以基于玩家的游戏体验的一个或多个方面（例如投注的投注）来增加。 如果在组事件定时器或模式结束之前与参与组事件的游戏设备相关联的单独组事件资格定时器中断，则该组游戏设备被从组事件中消除。 在小组活动结束后，在剩余或未消除的游戏设备（即，与具有任何剩余时间量的个人组事件资格定时器相关联的游戏设备）的玩家之间共享组合活动奖励。
