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?

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