***UPDATE*** Mafia Wars/Zynga Fail 6/12

***UPDATE***
Games are back up and running as of 11:17 AM Pacific Time.

No, Zynga, the Intertubes are fine. Zynga is broken.  I have tried various ways to discover the problem, and here's what I got: 404 error at Farmville, Mafia Wars, and all Zynga games according to reports from other Facebookers.

At MafiaWars.com a server error, so we cannot log in there to play. 

So I closed the error pop up and clicked "Support" and got this notice:

And as per the usual, the Official Mafia Wars Blog is about as informative as a billboard from 1999.

I guess we'll have to wait and see if Zynga ever comes up for air again.
