Abstract

First participant information may be received that is associated with a set of participants that participate in an event. The set of participants may be distributed, based at least in part on distribution criteria and the first participant information, across a plurality of messaging groups, to form a first participant distribution, wherein each messaging group of the plurality of messaging groups has a respective participant subset of the set of participants, and wherein messages sent by participants within the respective participant subset are delivered only to other participants within the respective participant subset. During the event, second participant information may be received associated with the set of participants. Also during the event, the first participant distribution may be modified, based at least in part on the distribution criteria and the second participant information, to form a modified participant distribution.
