Description

In my yaml file I have this assigned only once:
`token: 4b5xxd77x8793xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx`

Still I'm getting limited by github's API:

`2017-11-20 00:41:47,124 - root - INFO - Limit: 60, Remaining: 0, Reset: 2017-11-20 01:13:28`

In practice I had 5k in the beginning of my close-inactive-issues but then I got:

`github.GithubException.RateLimitExceededException: 403 {'message': 'API rate limit exceeded for fmv1992-bot-account.', 'documentation_url': 'https://developer.github.com/v3/#rate-limiting'}`

Why is that?
