I noticed that I am unable to resolve the two authoritative servers (ns1.500bucksaday.com/ns2.500bucksaday.com) from anywhere (http://pastebin.com/kHUYHqDc), yet I am still able to resolve the two above hosts from several locations.

Well, for one thing, 500bucksaday.com expired:
wkumari$ dig ns 500bucksaday.com | grep status
;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NXDOMAIN, id: 45755

   Domain Name: 500BUCKSADAY.COM
   Registrar: NETWORK SOLUTIONS, LLC.
   Whois Server: whois.networksolutions.com
   Referral URL: http://networksolutions.com
   Name Server: NS11019.ZTOMY.COM

'parently 500 bucks a day wan't quite enough to pay for registration....

Anyway:
greattextbookgiveaway.com. 172800 IN    NS      ns1.epicadventure101.com.

wkumari$ dig +nostats www.ca.greattextbookgiveaway.com.
@ns1.epicadventure101.com.  |grep -A100 'R SEC'
;; ANSWER SECTION:
www.ca.greattextbookgiveaway.com. 14400 IN CNAME ca.greattextbookgiveaway.com.
ca.greattextbookgiveaway.com. 14400 IN  A       198.1.112.149

;; AUTHORITY SECTION:
ca.greattextbookgiveaway.com. 86400 IN  NS      ns1.500bucksaday.com.
ca.greattextbookgiveaway.com. 86400 IN  NS      ns2.500bucksaday.com.

;; ADDITIONAL SECTION:
ns1.500bucksaday.com.   14400   IN      A       198.1.112.149
ns2.500bucksaday.com.   14400   IN      A       198.57.185.22


Someone should go poke epicadventure101.com.
Also, the whole CNAME www.example to example still makes me sad - just saying...

I don't think the execution is relevant when it was obviously a bad
idea in the first place.
This is like putting rabid weasels in your pants, and later expressing
regret at having chosen those particular rabid weasels and that pair
of pants.
