If I'm genuinely honest, I'm not sure if I would have made the same decision. I actually thought for a minute or two that Connectrode was a city, and he didn't want to leave his family. That I get.
But I mean, its OK to love something and we all love our creations, but I wonder if I'd have viewed the thing that I loved, as a platform that was moving me onto the fastest growing, possibly largest game platform of our generation. The biggest player of the industry "I" belong to.
It would have been a sad moment perhaps, but I'd have sacrificed it in a ceremony if it meant that much, but tailed it into a drinks of celebration and the start of a new zynga-charged chapter. Just my 2c.
I think 'Connectrode' is somewhat symbolic here. It represents something he is and does outside of his standard workplace. it sounded like signing the Zynga contract could potentially threaten everything that 'Connectrode' represented to him.
