The delays like that would make this look like Four isn't getting the
right response from Twitter when posting a message. All messages are
queued up inside Four so it can resend if they don't get through the
first time. With Twitter this happens quite a bit as it's not the most
reliable thing at times, although its been pretty good recently.
I'll send you over a copy of the latest build after I add some
tracing/debug to it. Hopefully should highlight what is happening.
Thanks

I suppose Four could be doing the same thing with AddTime set to

I've double checked with viewer and only one message.display is
