NETWORK GAMING SYSTEM MANAGEMENT

A data presentation system that allows a user to view information from a game network in real-time is disclosed. Information is collected from a game network and stored in a data repository. Data is gathered from the data repository, filtered, formatted, and displayed on a viewer of a user machine connected to the data presentation system. A user can select from a number of data views and customize the views, thus ensuring that the desired information is available to the user. Information is updated at a pre-selected rate, or as the network allows. Information may be retained for a period of time, for example, for a shift period. Pre-filtering of data can provide notice to a user when predetermined network events occur.
