Oh hey, glad to see a project I contributed to get a mention on HN.

I wrote the Splunk integration with Twint for crawling Twitter timelines: https://github.com/twintproject/twint-splunk

Feel free to hit me up if there are any questions about that part of Twint.

Thanks for your hard work! The tool has been extremely helpful in my political science research. I have noticed that a sort of error occurs when I try to scrape too many tweets from too many accounts at once (which I do by referencing a txt file with the account names that I want to scrape tweets from). I've fixed this by just making shorter lists of account names. Is there another workaround I am unaware of?
