How one can I request someone to join the game and then visible to other users?

Question

Hi all,

I am asking this question as a small part of my question series regarding game programming. Refer this question as the main one.

Now suppose I want to develop a game on iphone - a simple multiplayer board game. Suppose its a casino table and there is a table which is currently on (players are playing on) and someone wants to join the game how will one will request to join the game and then after acceptance of the moderator the user will be visible in the table and is "playing" in the table.

I don't know how connections work in online multiplayer iphone game.

You can provide me link, tutorials or to the point answers, anything will be great help for me and will be really appreciated.

thanks

You are asking for tutorials, so: http://blogs.unity3d.com/2010/04/21/guess-whats-on-the-picture/

Considering that you need a server to coordinate this and maybe are looking for a framework: http://exitgames.com/Photon
