I was pleased to see the first API Fest organized without me. I am glad that the game is making its baby steps towards conquering the developer's world.

-	I was also amazed that twelve people really participated in the final ''judgement'' round - the round when you not just design, but spend time looking for flaws in solutions done by ~~other~~. In the previous competitions (like [[APIFest08]] or the one described in [[Using_Games_to_Improve_API_Design_Skills\|Chapter 17]]), most of the people just enjoyed the design phases, and then ~~give~~ up.
