#4So Zynga was originally going to call the game "Themepark" but Eric already had that domain, and so they changed it to "Coasterville"?

The game seems hosted on a themepark.zynga.com subdomain, so yeah.

#6Not to be a party-pooper but I wonder where he stands legally with this.

#7I think I'd do the exact same thing in his situation, you can either be angry about it or have some fun with it.

#10What an asshole. I mean, really, people contact him asking for help and instead of setting up an email rule of "Sorry, this isn't Zynga" he knowingly messes people around.
It'd be one thing to mess with Zynga but people who've just emailed for help? That breaks "Dont' be a dick".
I was expecting an awesome story about how he looked into the game and took on their role and actually helped people but instead we have someone on the internet being a dick.
