Instead of using resistors, you can use RAW mode which measures how far in
the sensor was pushed. Then use a bit of tape to prevent one of the sensors
from being pushed in all the way.
BTW, I am lucky enough to have a defective touch sensor that only reads
about 750 RAW when fully depressed (it doesn't work in Boolean mode) but it
is easy to tell which sensor has been hit.
