You clearly did not. The start of every week your league gets made up of you + the 24 players with the closest medal counts to you. You are racing against them. If their were "normal" leagues your league competitors would definitely not be the 24 players closest to you. Maybe you would step up...

Hey guys! I read the thread, and don't mean to be disrespectful but this is a great example of when people don't take the time to sit down and think for a few minutes before complaining. The leagues are totally fictional, that's right, I also identified it the way you guys figured it out...
