Just FYI, as someone mentioned above, I’m pretty sure that there’s a cap on how many people you can include on a list, which would make this a first come first serve type thing, right? Any ideas of how to get around this?

You spelled California wrong in your example tweet. so either fix it or have the script check for the misspelling

I can’t be included then? Twitter excludes a lot of users from twitter search, so hashtags won’t work for everyone!
