Hello all,

First time to this forum, but I'm a forum vet. Please don't belittle me for posting here with perhaps too robust of a request. I have a few questions that I hope some of you may be able to answer. What easier way to get my question(s) across clearly than with an example, right?

My app will be based around a live event. Users are to react to what is happening in real-time. Perhaps they will offer input X to potentially predict what happens. Then, if they make a correct selection--based on a 3rd party's input, or database of these events--they may be awarded points. I want users to log into an arena, for a lack of a better word. From there, points can be compared.

What do I need in order to corral user input? How do I compare this user input to (a) real-time event(s)?

Any and all input is welcome, and appreciated!

Thank you kindly,
8SM8
