Is there a bug in the twitter milestones?

Ryan,

I tried to apply the badge to my reputation without any success.  My account profile has my twitter username included and I followed the link on the opposite (gear) side of the mission, taking me as expected to the correct twitter page for the target to be followed, which I duly followed.  I'm not sure of the how the underlying implementation works, i.e. call back or asynchronous, so wasn't sure if I should expect immediate results.

Cheers,

Gareth.
