Except... I only feel like a half-einner; as far as I'm aware, I only left one first comment, and ut was on my own post.
Nonetheless, I am honored to be one ov the first few to receive the badge.

Haha! On the contrary, you left 17 first comments since August 1st... unless we're doing something wrong, you left more 1st comments than anybody on DEV for the month of August! ๐

Wow, that's amazing.
On the contrary
Ah.
I think the confusion stems from the fact that I thought first comments only after the badge got released counted, not ones for the whole month.

We decided to go ahead and look back to the start of the month... we really wanted to go ahead and reward this one to some well-deserving folks, which you are definitely one of.
