Too many tweets retrieved!

[danielleos]

I set the maximum number of tweets to be 5000 (it was previously 3000) as set out in the Hands-on 2 activity.

When I run my script I end up retrieving over 1000 more tweets than the maximum! The query I use is

#Rio2016 OR #Olympics

Is this necessarily a bad thing?

Hi Daniel, it could be a bad or a googd thing depending on what you need about the tweets retrieval.

May be if you post the text of the activity and the doubt is about the hands-on activity, we could give a more specific help.
