Okay. 115 comments a day is still a decent amount. I got up to 71 yesterday, and that was after answering everyone mentioning me on the league results post, catching up with the replies since late Saturday night and then starting in on my feed. over the last several weeks, that represents the highest in a day I've done. My best is 90. So, you on a down day are still better by 25 comments what I am on my best day. :)

I don't know if it's best for you to back off. I did it because there was no one putting in the time I was, at least not to the extent I was. Now, you're here and so there's at least two of us running at it, and potentially more because of the newer faces.

Personally, I'd rather we were both running at full strength. Then, we have clear winners, rather than one stepping back. We've all got something we need to do and contend with, so whatever time there is that's what we dedicate to Steemit and the leagues.

I don't know how busy the bigger fish are. I guess it depends. I think some of them might be, others aren't, and others aren't even on regularly, because they've found something else to do. I don't know if I'd be able to keep up or not, but I'd like to think I would try. At this point, I don't really have a desire to attack this from some other way, like leasing delegation or some other form of passive income. I'd prefer to keep on writing.

If you bring up steemworld.org under your username, it will show you in the stat window how many comments and posts you have since you started. In my case, my 5,000 are from January 1 when I first started commenting. Yours would be from whenever you started.
