| We have dedicated this part of our site to give you some
details about our server, our game and the setup that keeps things ticking (in case you are interested:). |

| Game information |
Dystopia utilizes Php frontend scripts and a MySQL
backend to display, store and modify all game data.
Approximately 6,000 lines of script code perform all
ingame user actions. In total these scripts weigh in
at approximately 500kb.
All required ingame data is stored in some 38 tables.
Dystopia is currently not open source and we have no plans of releasing the game code.
The game has been running since early 2000, with the
exception of some short breaks owing to personal tragedy
(eg. dead hamsters) and the associated periods of grief
(~6 months each).:)

| Game admins |
Anti - [Chicago, Illinois]
Dystopia has developed as a game mostly from the efforts of Anti. He is the founder and owner of woofcat.com and maintains the game server. Anti has produced several games over the years including Catsylvania, Idolic Twilight and Dystopia. Rumor has it there is something new on its way too?
Incognito - [Sydney, Australia]
Jumped onboard during 2003 to lend a hand with the game. Any game issues should be directed towards Incognito. He is currently studying fulltime and runs Dystopia "on the side".

| Advertisements |
Dystopia has no advertising banners as things stand right now. While we acknowledge this is preferable for players we also realise the costs related to running a server. All server costs are, at this time, taken care of by Anti. When Dystopia reaches a satisfactory point (in terms of development and player base) we will re-instate small banner style advertisements to reduce the monthly costs a little.
Dystopia will never cost anything more than your time to play and all programming is done on a voluntary basis.
