We added pentagons, and displayed more statistics.
We also made the graphs show the average meh'ness of the shapes, and the average sadness.
Part of what was needed to make this work was a trippleslider. We created an nslider, which will automatically transform itself from double- to triple- to four... n- slider depending on the number of inputs. It is probably slightly broken in places.

We did this primarily as a fun exercise.
I am proposing a pull request because Twitter is difficult. Don't pull this. Your code is great as it.

So here is what I wanted to say:
Your code is beautiful.
It is simple to understand and well commented!
We managed to make these hacks in 2 hours because
of the elegant and easy way in which the code is written.

Thank you.

The automatic now supports three shapes.
In addition we created the nslider.js. This is a hack of doubleslider to
allow for n sliders. The number of pieces is determined by the number of
area's given in the config.
The average bored(meh) ratio and average shaking(sad) ratio are now also
graphed. (In yellow and blue respectively.)

We broke the segregation measure. Insteasd of
s = (avg-0.5)*2.
It is now
s = avg.
We did not understand how the computation would change with three shapes,
so we used the raw average.

As a random side note: the code is beautiful.
Easy to read, easy to hack., simple, logical. Thank you.

Is your branch live anywhere? I'd be curious to play with it.

Yes, it is available as a github page here.
Again thanks to Vi Hart and Nicky Case, who made even that possible.
