Abstract

Implementations of the present disclosure are directed to a method, a system, and an article for identifying events of interest in a multi-player online game and enabling users to witness the events of interest. An example computer-implemented method can include: obtaining a set of parameters for each of a plurality of events in an online game played by a plurality of users; calculating a score for each event based on the set of parameters, the score providing an indication of a user interest in witnessing the event; identifying one or more events as having a highest user interest, based on the scores; notifying at least one user from the plurality of users about the identified one or more events; receiving an indication that the at least one user has selected one of the identified one or more events; and enabling the at least one user to witness the selected event.
