Description

The instructions state the following:

`Please publicly tweet the following, and don't delete it:`

`Verifying myself:...`

This didn't work. In order for the verification to work, I needed to [pin the tweet to my public profile](https://twitter.com/support/status/458707240325615617). Once I pinned the tweet to my twitter public profile, my identity was able to be verified.
