The score input unit 20 inputs game situation data indicating the situation of the game to the server 30. In this embodiment, the game situation data indicating the situation of a baseball game includes, for example, score data. Score data is data that constitutes a score written in a baseball scorebook, and is an individual event that constitutes a series of events starting from a pitcher's pitch. A score is a collection of score data. Therefore, each time a pitcher throws one pitch, a plurality of score data are created, thereby creating one score. For example, if the batter is on base and the result of the bat is a fly out to right field and the runner on first base is also touched out, there will be score data that says the batter is out, score data that says fly to right field, and a fly out for the runner on first base. Score data indicating that the player is out is created, and one score is constructed from these score data.

In addition to the score data exemplified above, the score includes the batter's actions, fielder's actions, count confirmation, if there is a runner already on base, the progress of that runner, and other information about the batter and fielder. Score data such as other actions may be included. Specifically, the score may include score data such as strikes, balls, fouls, batting results, types of batted balls, catching fielders, and base advancing results. The batting results include information such as outs, first base hits, double base hits, triple base hits, and home runs. The type of batted ball is information such as grounder, liner, fly ball, bunt, etc., and may be further classified into more detailed categories. The fielder catching the ball is information for identifying the fielder who actually caught the ball or the fielding position of the fielder. The base advancement result is information regarding the base advancement of the runner who was on base, such as "from 1st base to 2nd base," and can also include other actions of the batter and fielder.

Examples of the score input unit 20 include an application that inputs the above score data as electronic data to the server 30. In this case, the score input unit 20 may be provided in a processing device such as a personal computer installed outside the server 30.

The candidate data setting section 64 selects candidate data to be displayed on the candidate data display section 92 from among the candidate data stored in the candidate data storage section 54 based on the score data. For example, the candidate data setting unit 64 selects or sets candidate data based on the latest score data going back from the time when the screen for inputting chat data is displayed. In this case, as the candidate data, words related to the most recent score data can be selected or set.

Further, the candidate data setting section 64 can select candidate data based on the registered data stored in the registered data storage section 55. For example, in the case where a team is registered as registered data, when score data that is advantageous to the registered team is acquired, the candidate data setting unit 64 selects a phrase that is advantageous to the score. On the other hand, when score data that is advantageous to the registered team is acquired, the candidate data setting unit 64 selects words and phrases that are unfavorable to the score.

For example, when a player is registered as registered data, the candidate data setting unit 64 selects words and phrases that are advantageous to the registered player when score data that is advantageous to the registered player is obtained, as described above. , when score data that is advantageous to the registered player is acquired, it is possible to select phrases that would indicate a case where the score is unfavorable. Further, the candidate data setting unit 64 can set a phrase including the registered player's name as candidate data.

Further, for example, in a case where predetermined score data is registered as registered data, when the registered score data is acquired, the candidate data setting unit 64 selects a phrase according to the registered score data. For example, when a home run is registered as registered data and score data of the home run is acquired, the candidate data setting unit 64 can select a word or phrase corresponding to the score data, such as "Home run!", as the candidate data. Furthermore, if teams and players are registered together as registered data, if a registered team player or registered player hits a home run, or if a score such as "Nice home run" or "Yay, home run" is advantageous, Candidate data that is a combination of words and phrases that include score data can be selected or set. On the other hand, if a player from the opposing team hits a home run instead of the registered team, candidates are combinations of words and phrases that include score data and phrases that are unfavorable to the score, such as ``I hit a home run'' and ``Unfortunately, it was a home run.'' Data can be selected or set.
