Login Bonus System with Time-Frame Tracking
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Players who log in at an intermediate point in a time frame miss out on login bonuses granted during previous time periods, leading to a sense of loss.
Innovation Solution
An information processing system that stores login information and grants rights based on the elapsed time period, allowing players to receive missed bonuses upon first login, and motivates continued login with extended time frames for bonus accumulation.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If login bonuses are granted only for logins performed within a specific time frame starting from the beginning, then the system can maintain clear time-based reward rules, but players who log in at an intermediate point cannot receive bonuses for previous time periods, causing a sense of loss
Solution Approach 1:
The system stores login information in advance when a player logs in for the first time in a particular time frame. This preliminary storage of login timing data enables the system to later determine whether the player is eligible for make-up bonuses without requiring complex real-time calculations, thus resolving the contradiction between flexibility and complexity
Solution Approach 2:
The system dynamically adjusts bonus granting based on the stored login information and the current time. When a player logs in and the system detects that the certain time period has elapsed since their first login, it automatically grants the appropriate make-up bonus. This dynamic adjustment mechanism provides flexibility for late logins while maintaining clear rules, resolving the technical contradiction
2Reliability
If the system grants make-up bonuses for elapsed time periods, then player satisfaction increases, but the system must track and calculate elapsed time accurately, increasing operational complexity
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary tracking of the certain time period duration from the player's first login. By having this time tracking mechanism already in place and storing the login information, the system can reliably determine make-up bonus eligibility without adding complex calculation logic at the moment of bonus granting, thus maintaining reliability while managing complexity
Solution Approach 2:
The system uses the stored login information as feedback to determine whether to grant make-up bonuses. When a player logs in, the system checks the stored login timing against the current time to determine if the certain time period has elapsed, and automatically grants appropriate bonuses. This feedback mechanism ensures fair and reliable bonus distribution while keeping the tracking system relatively simple

AI summary
A non-transitory computer readable medium stores a program causing a computer to execute: storing login information when a player performs a login for the first time in a particular time frame; granting a right when a login is performed every certain time period in the particular time frame; and granting, in the case where the login information is not stored and the certain time period in which the right is not granted has elapsed when a login is performed in the particular time frame, the right on the basis of the certain time period in which the right is not granted.
