Genesis
Anselm Hook asks, "how hard would it be to write an online person simulator? Wake sleep cycle - twittering / foursquare checkin etc."
Casebot code can automate some of it.
Predictive Data
After a while Foursquare knows where you're likely to go. After a while, your tweets become normalize. Some are are reactive, some are saying thanks to people.
Tweet Times
There is the importance having some randomness in tweet times so that the tweets don't simple show up all at the same time.
For instance, from the hours of 8-10 am, say from array of strings, some string about mornings. And that for other purposes, making something that generates sentences and links from popular bit.ly links.
There are graphs to tell when you're most likely to tweet online. Tweets could come during those hours. Links would come in as well, some from some other aggregator sites, and others from the tweets in other's streams you follow that have great followings and rt's. Retweeting those links would likely increase your ability to do well on the site.
Personality
As far as personality and Tweet content that is not links or reactivity, you can break down your personality and patterns down into 20 types of actions and then make 10 alternates for each action that would give enough permutations to seem legitimate.
