Communications integrity of stitched video draw game systems

An apparatus for creating a plurality of phased video scenes by pseudorandomly selecting a set of video fragments from a database, seamlessly assembling the selected video fragments into the plurality of phased video scenes simulating a broadcasted draw game enabling wagering by a plurality of players with digital wallets, and electronically delivering the plurality of phased video scenes to selected players, the apparatus comprising:

• (a) a gaming platform for executing the broadcasted draw game, each player having a player device with an active connection to the gaming platform;
• and
• (b) a controller in communication with the gaming platform configured to construct a first phase preamble scene by:
• (i) selecting a first pool of video fragments,
• (ii) pseudorandomly arranging the first pool of video fragments using a Random Number Generator (RNG),
• (iii) stitching the pseudorandomly selected video fragments into a playlist file, and
• (iv) streaming the playlist file of the first phase preamble scene to a plurality of players,
• wherein the gaming platform is further configured to enable the plurality of player devices to place a wager on the upcoming draw game when sufficient funds are available to support their wager in the respective player's digital wallet while the first phase preamble scene is streaming and recording all wagers in a wager database, and
• wherein the controller is further configured to construct a second phase scene wherein no further wagers are accepted by:
• (i) selecting a second pool of video fragments,
• (ii) pseudorandomly arranging the second pool of video fragments using a first RNG,
• (iii) stitching the pseudorandomly selected video fragments into a playlist file, and
• (iv) streaming the playlist file of the second phase scene to the plurality of players at the conclusion of the streaming of the first phase preamble scene,
• wherein the gaming platform is further configured to:
• (i) initiate a delay period when the second phase scene begins streaming,
• (ii) electronically check each of the player's active connections during the delay period to determine which player devices are maintaining the active connection with the gaming platform,
• (iiii) at the end of the delay period, initiate debiting each connected player's digital wallet for the amount of their wager when their respective player device is determined to be maintaining the active connection with the gaming platform, and voiding all player wagers when their respective player device is determined to not be maintaining the active connection with the gaming platform,
• (iv) determine the broadcasted draw game outcome by receiving an output from the RNG, and
• (v) initiate crediting each winning actively connected player's digital wallet with the appropriate winnings from their wager,
• wherein the controller is further configured to construct a third phase draw results scene by:
• (i) selecting a pool of video fragments,
• (ii) pseudorandomly arranging the pool of video fragments using a second RNG,
• (iii) stitching the pseudorandomly selected video fragments into a playlist file, and
• (iv) streaming the playlist file of the third phase draw results scene to only the plurality of player devices that maintained the active connection with the gaming platform at the conclusion of the streaming of the second phase scene, thereby electronically delivering the plurality of phased video scenes to selected players via their respective player devices.
