That's Cool!

This badge challenge is a lot more difficult than ever. I think I need at least 3-6 months to complete it!

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. Take that first step today.

@Andy - PTC Redundant моля! ;) 

I love this board, but I'm also feeling the competition rising! I know what happens once a man gets a checklist!

I'm back from Poland, so it's time to prepare for a fight. It's gonna be tough - webinar, team building and hackathon ahead :O

No only 5 so far @Kat Warner :) The ones in the Trello PEI group don't count as articles (any post inside of a group is considered a discussion).  I created a Trello PEI group recently and moved some of my old posts into the group over the last couple of weeks. They are not connected with the author badge, as any post inside of a group is a post (not an article).

Hard not to want to chase this badge though, you,Teodora and Andy make it so fun!

Lol @Jimmy Seddon I wasn't sure of that song either, but fearful of youtubing in case it does get stuck in my head, as Kat said :)

@Kat Warner I assume this is a take on Bon Jovi's "Livin' On A Prayer".

Thanks @Andy - PTC Redundant my strategy was to post 1 (sometimes 2) article(s) a day, and get them all online before the holidays (when people may not be online as much - less people, less opportunities for likes). When the articles are online, they will have the opportunity to get read, and over time accumulating to the 50 likes needed!
