Yoogames is a popular browser game site famous for their quick-responding and thoughtful
customer service. Though in this case a Yoogames admin provided the IP address of the player
and probably saved his life, note that all user data are highly confidential and classified at Yoogames, and this was an exceptional case that they gave the address.
