Abstract
In this paper, we present our contribution for the Task 1 (6 levels polarity classification) of the TASS 2013 competition. This contribution consists on two different approaches: a modified version of a ranking algorithm (RA-SR) using bigrams, and new proposal using a skipgrams scorer. These approaches create sentiment lexicons able to retain the context of the terms. All our approaches appear in the top 10 best results of the systems presented to the competition, and the combination of them reaches the first position.
