The user comments are a bit more negative then the ones on the original article.  :(

Probably people who couldn't / didn't want to climb the learning cliff.

Wow cool.  I got the impression she thinks volcanoes can errupt: sounds like a nice feature for a 2015 version  8)
A few of the comments were pretty funny, I only found a few to be negative.

Also, congrats to Vjek for the best megaproject! (Masterwork EVERYTHING)

Yeah some of her points were slightly off (level 10 aquifer was really a 10 level aquifer), but I think she enjoyed our little rebuttal of her article nonetheless.  And in corresponding with her via email, she seemed to be pretty good spirited about the game.

I liked that one too.  It kinda makes sense, since higher level enemies in other games are harder to defeat.

Props to you guys for turning this into something really positive, and it was decent of her to acknowledge what you did.  Bay12 is awesome.   :D

OK, finally going to do the last vote: this time for best fort in a dangerous area.
Some contestents picked spots with towers nearby, while others chose the evil biomes.

The votes should just focus on fort, writeup doesn't count so much.

I voted Flabort as well.  Mine had the potential to be really dangerous, but it just...flat out never was.  No zombie sieges, no ambushes, just some random thieves and snatchers.  I was really disappointed as I expected to be able to fill that Ars room with zombies before I was done.  The most exciting thing that happened prior to me dumping those dwarves into the pit, was the trapping of 3 necromancers at once.
