Also remove the unit workshop for being too complex/overpowered.

Hardcore Disease-mode: Every organism has 99 Constitution. Good luck getting past that roll.

Ahh, the RNG hates me enough as it is.

If you are a supernatural disease it is possible to attack their Will saves instead.

Hardcore Team Fortress 2: Spies can disguise at hats. The UI for that would be on par if not harder than that of Dwarf Fortress.

This would be a more accurate representation of hardcore Team Fortress 2.

That article is a joke. Those changes would be terrible.

Yeah, this would be terrible.
TF2 already has quite the competitive scene by itself. Even the most casual games have some mad skill and hard competitive gameplay in the higher levels (e.g. Prestige in CoD. Never reached this myself, but I have a friend that has, and I've heard a lot of stories.)

Knowing Belgium, everyone will vote for themselves out of mistrust for anyone else, and some kind of weird direct democracy coalition will need to be formed from 11 million or so individuals.

Why?  TF2 is casual, sure, but its casual in a good way.  You can accomplish at least a little even if you 100% suck, but it has enough depth and skill that longtime players still dominate.  Making weapons more deadly and long-ranged would just make health less important and thus make the classes less distinct.  Not to mention kill game balance, and make the passageways most TF2 maps favor into impassible projectile-laden chokepoints.

You misspelled seance.  Are possessing Draignean?  Are you actually a ghost in the shell? You have to tell us if you are, that's the rule

I ended up at about 6th prestige in World At War. Nothing changed for me, gameplay-wise.

Then it happened. Then I cringed. Then I picked it up and beat him to death with it, and then his buddies, too.

To me casualness and hardcoreness isn't necessarily a sign of how competitive a game is (The "Pros" of Super Smash Bros really should learn that).

It just determines how soft handed it is.
