Zynga Wins the Family Boss Taunt Contest

Share:

Over two and a half months ago, Zynga announced the Family Boss Fight Contest. They made quite a production and posted it on their forums and blog. We even had an in game ad asking us to submit taunts for the new Family Boss Fight feature.
Zynga doesn't always finish what they start and nobody really knows if there were any winners. Today, the Mafia Wars Fan Page posted a taunt. This surely wasn't from a contest entrant because Jimmy Lechon didn't exist before the contest deadline of September 26th. Zynga must have declared themselves the winner. The taunt reads "Now that I have more fingers, it'll be easier to wring your neck!".
This made me laugh because Zynga is making fun of their own edited image of Jimmy.
Arvind Jain couldn't figure out why Zynga went through all the trouble of disguising the fact that Jimmy Lechon was giving players the middle finger. He wasn't very happy when he collected his latest Boss Fight Rewards. At least Jimmy was discrete about it.

Thanks to Susan and Eike for noticing the new taunt and to Arvind for the above image.
