Battrick is a free Internet browser-based cricket management game inspired by the football management game Hattrick. According to the game's creator, Allan Fairlie-Clarke (Battrick username BT-allanfc), the idea for the game came about during a conversation on an internet forum. The game has now grown to be the largest online cricket management game on the Internet. In early November 2007, Battrick has over 9,600 registered users and as of December 2010 there are 7,400 active users. In Battrick, users take over a cricket team in the lower levels of their chosen country's league system and aim – through training, tactics and transfers – to improve their team and achieve success in one or more of the several first class and limited overs competitions.〔 〕 There are currently eighteen countries in the game, split into eight foundation countries and ten 'expansion countries', each with their own league & cup competitions, and with National representative sides. The game is free to play. A membership package, which offers no strategic advantage, can be purchased. ==Game Characteristics== Battrick is browser-based game, of the PBBG type. This means that it is played over the Internet, using only a standard web browser, and that it is persistent, i.e. progress is maintained from one playing session to the next. Progress in the game is obtained through management of one's team over the course of many seasons.〔 (【引用サイトリンク】 url = http://onlinesportmanagers.blogspot.com/ )〕 The game is coded in C#, ASP, VB and XHTML. As part of a rewrite to PHP, the game developers have stated their intention to release an API (XML and JSON) to compliment the site, making the data available to third party applications. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Battrick」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
