not sure if telescope is a good boilerplate for meteor.
I think it tends towards unnecessary abstraction complication and ends up rather brittle in the end.
Try changing the post frequency from "daily", for example. The code complexity, in this case, making a previously non-existing abstraction (post frequency) difficult to alter... better to start with the basic meteor 3-file default app (or something similarly simple) and build one's app (and knowledge) from there...
I'm a pretty experienced Meteor dev and I find telescope to be confusing...
