This document describes technical details of a web experiment carried out at the State University of Campinas, Brazil, in order to classify a set of dialogues, taken from movies, according to their politeness degree. Our intention here is to present the strategy we used when building the experiment's website, as well as the statistical issues we addressed and the technicalities involved. In this report, we do not present the experiment's results.
