So it only look at the previous tweet from that user? Or the previous tweet send by your application (via the API) for that user? So for example: If you have 2 static messages A and B, and your app posts tweet A, B, A, B, A, B, ... it shouldn't be a problem?
My webapp can tweet 2 static tweets (per user) when an event occurred. Something like an alert/notification system that can optional tweet a message for the followers. I noticed that my tweets aren't post successfully (I'm speaking about 2-3 tweets per month per user, so no high number). I found this thread and I read that you can't post duplicated tweets, quite stupid since my users can enter a custom message, so this message will be static. At the moment, as temporally fix, I add a random and unique string to the end of the tweet, just to be strange my tweet will be post successfully, but this isn't nice...
