Hey! Welcome to the leagues! I guess I didn't know you weren't already a part of them or I would have invited you, too. Sorry about that, but good job @bashadow! It's definitely been an attitude changing experience for me.
As for our performance levels, they're actually generally higher, so just a heads up on that. :) No pressure, though. The prizes are nice, and they do add motivation, but the fun and the importance of the leagues is just getting out there and doing our best to post, comment and curate as much as we can.
