Deathblob - There aren't many prolific posters who openly talk about actually playing SP. Off the top of my head, there's probably no more than 5. And the usual MP player response to that question is "no one plays SP". It's not that I know how many play against the AI, it's that I know how many don't!

The majority of people are probably going to play with the most recent version of CBM, whatever it is at the time. However there are a certain number of people who strongly dislike some of the decisions CBM has made. 1.6 is an important version because after that dwarven hammers became unique. Later versions of CBM also were the beginning of additional new content to the mod, instead of just making changes to the original game, so 1.6 is the best compromise between "enhanced vanilla" and adding new content.
