There is a huge risk that they are trailing indicators since they say nothing about level of member activity. Just look at what happened at Region 11. They are supposed to have more members than us and yet they had to cancel their region rally while we had a quite good turnout. Go figure.
Also, lets not forget that WDCU charges $1/year for membership. I'd be willing to bet that it is at least one contributing factor to their member count. That is $14/year cheaper than being MAL.
