I'm not entirely sure what the OSMify bookmarklet does...
The game is built using Flash so the osmify bookmarklet won't work as it needs the javascript api instead.
I hope the game is using a fixed snapshot of OSM data, so that players don't have an incentive to add bogus new streets they can then buy cheaply...It'll be impossible to tell until next week (new planet dump), really. I would imagine that they are just using one dump ... there's no positive reason to keep OSM up to date and lots of negative reasons to do so.
They are using data from before 25 July 2009 due to the following way having a typo in the game. :-)
