Claim One:
1. A method of broadcasting information about a live event that is composed of a sequence of discrete sub-events wherein a set of rules governs the event so that a status change resulting from the occurrence of a sub-event is determined by the set of rules, comprising the steps of: creating a set of symbols useful in a computer simulation, wherein each symbol is representative of an action involving physical exertion and skill; generating a sequence of symbolic descriptions, each description being a representation of one of the discrete sub-events, and includes at least one symbol from said set of symbols wherein said symbol may be used in a computer simulation to effect a change in an indicated status of an event in connection with a computer simulation program that operates in accordance with the set of rules governing the event; creating a database file corresponding to the event; updating said database file with a generated sequence of symbolic descriptions; and broadcasting said symbolic descriptions in said updated database file.
