Abstract
A game system includes a server, and the server can communicate with and is connected to a plurality of game apparatuses via a network. In a case that a currently-connecting message is not received from any game apparatus during a communication game, the server determines that the game apparatus prematurely ends the communication game, and adds a bad reputation score of each of the players who is participating in the communication game. Furthermore, if the communication game is ended, and there is a game apparatus that refuses to participate in a next communication game, the bad reputation score of the game apparatus who permits participating in the next communication game is added. For example, the player having a high bad reputation score is refused to participate in the next communication game.
