Claim One:
1. An apparatus comprising: a processor circuit; and a storage communicatively coupled to the processor circuit to store instructions that when executed by the processor circuit cause the processor circuit to: receive a signal that indicates play of a game event; search statistical data stored in the storage and associated with at least one player of a game associated with the game event for an indication of a first milestone specified in an alerts data towards the achievement of which an extent of progress meeting a condition specified in the alerts data has been made based on receipt of the signal; identify the first milestone in the statistical data; predict a time required in a current season of the game to achieve the first milestone; compare the predicted time required to an indication of time that provisionally remains in scheduled game events in the season that provides an opportunity to achieve the first milestone; compare the predicted time required to an indication of time that remains in scheduled game events in the season in the scheduling data following a change in the time that provisionally remains; determine, from account data, one or more presentation devices that are to receive an alert predicting achievement of the first milestone, the account data associated with users different from the at least one player; search a scheduling data for a scheduled condition that indicates a restriction against transmitting an alert predicting achievement of the first milestone to the determined one or more presentation devices, the scheduling data comprising game event data and event data unrelated to a game event; and transmit the alert that predicts achievement of the first milestone to the determined one or more presentation devices based on the time that remains in the season providing at least the predicted time required following the change in the time that provisionally remains and based on a lack of restriction against transmitting the alert.
