Leagify - join the Discourse!

Some of you may know that I recently created a company called Leagify.  It was one of the winners of StartupWeekend Green Bay 2014.

A short description of Leagify is that it turns data into games, and creates fantasy leagues for the rest of us.  To help people talk about Leagify, I've implemented a Leagify Discourse forum, which, as the name indicates, is based on Discourse.  Feel free to stop over and see what's going on!
