Great. Thanks, Marcel. Looking forward to the answer. My guess: limit
on concurrent follows as countermeasure against bots?

Indeed something looks strange there. I've brought this to the
attention of the team working on the lists backend. I'll let you know
what they discover.

2009-11-10 Thread cadams500

I''m not sure if it's related or not... but I had a very similar
problem with "following" users for non-list based items. In fact, even
when I would add new users synchronously, I had to put a sleep in
there of a few seconds. If I didn't sleep between follow calls, the
account would reflect that I had been following the users, but I would
never receive their status in my stream. (For example, the account on
the website would say I was following 10 people, but I'd only ever get
the status for 2)

If I put a sleep of a few seconds, everything worked perfectly. So, it
seems like the list-based following might suffer from the same issue
as the non-list based following.

I know it doesn't help solve your issue, but maybe others have noticed
a similar problem and twitter can look into it.

Does creating the same list twice via sync'ed methods result in  
duplicate streams?

Strange.
