   Thanks for your input Jonnie, you've highlighted one of the main limitations of text-based sentiment analysis. I've never always asserted that the sentiment derived from this study is not indicitive of "true" sentiment of an individual pers

   I'll be writing this up in more detail soon, but the sentiment is basically derived through the ANEW dataset. This dataset scores a few thousand English words with sentiment values from 1 (very unhappy) to 9 (very happy). I find the sentime

   Fair point. The game originally started without Twitter integration and people asked for it, so I can't please everyone just yet. However, I will be letting people play without a Twitter account in the near-future, once I suss out the best

   The reason I'm using Twitter is because there will be tight integration with Twitter in the future. If you don't want to trust me then I can't help that, but it's not a problem with the game. However, in the future I will be allowing guests

    A wise idea, thank you. The game is still in the proof-of-concept stage so there is much to be made better.

    Icey, I only asked people to vote if they like the game. They get nothing out of it if they do, and I'm not forcing them. I jokingly said they may get a hug if they did, so shoot me if that's illegal.

    Oh definitely. I put it together in a couple of hours, without any major performance testing. It's just a bit of fun really, nothing hardcore.
