When we launched Mantel Points last year and the Mantel community was still super small, I built what some might call a commanding lead on the board. I had no idea if or when someone would claim the top spot- to be honest, I was hopeful it would happen sooner or later, because that would be a sign people were enjoying the app.

But I'd be lying if I thought it would have happened so soon, and by someone who only joined Mantel 8 months ago!

I am in awe of @theboovier - he is as consistent as Ichiro, but manages to swing for the fences like Bonds- with insane card post after insane card post (plus art, memorabilia, etc etc)...

And he's always down to chat it up in the replies, offer advice and moral support, and even talk to our team back at @MantelHQ whenever we want the opinion of an app power user.

Massive congrats to the top spot, my friend. Given how prolific you are (and how endless your collection seems to be), I don't see anyone topping you for a while.
