Facebook Snubs Zyngas CityVille As Most Popular Game Despite 5X Users Of #1 Gardens Of Time

Facebook Top Games Snubs Zynga-1Playdom's Gardens of Time took the #1 spot of Facebook's Most Popular Games of 2011 list. But wait, Zynga's CityVille was ranked #3 despite peaking at over 100 million monthly active users and 21 million daily active users -- far more than Gardens of Time's peaks of 17 million MAU and 4 million DAU,or its current stats according to AppData. That's because Facebook's list was mostly based on Yes / No user surveys of whether they'd recommend the game, and hardly on active user count like it saidIt's almost as if Facebook used its cloudy methodology to keep Zynga fromcompletelydominating the list, as the Mark Pincus machine currently owns all 5 Facebook games with the most DAU and still ended up with 4 of the top 10 spots on Facebook's list.
