Oh I found the tweet T-Pain addressed this LOL

#TheN0ughtie5 Between you, you've now made the ultimate air-punch - something even more perfect than 'Vampire' - possible. If anyone actually pulls it off in the remaining 23 days, I might even give them an extra bonus point or something :)

Thanks to whoever brought up the hundred, thanks to @dorsalstop.bsky.social for FINALLY getting this on to the 2004 playlist! *back to unconvincing facade of objectivity*

One of these songs remains unpicked! Not even WEST END GIRL can move you... The reply (2005-09) includes a singleton 10 and a singleton HM. #TheN0ughtie5

Kate Nash er kul. Peaches også. Sammen slår det hardt. Lyrisk og musikalsk. Kate Nash, Peaches - GERM GERM GERM

ICYMI last night! Not that exciting, key points: 1. PART V (finale) consists of two games running in parallel 2. Full reveal in 8 weeks 3. Then four weekends of rules/discussion to help embed before 2027 #TheN0ughtie5 etc

17 hours…a new record!

The exact 20 seconds that proves 'Crazy In Love' is an untouchable behemoth of a Black pop song, and people like this should leave it well alone.

Catching this right as the band is belting out the "I been playin' myself, baby I don't care" part of "Crazy In Love" and panning out to an empty lawn is too sweet for words. Just phenomenal camera work.

my god

#THEN0UGHTIE5 + #TheTwen2ie5 #TheTenx5 #Twen2y526 *** PART V ANNOUNCEMENT HERE *** mu21cvs.com/midnights-to...

this a good example of jus how wrong @lucympowell.bsky.social and co are in thinking that keir starmer was the problem. it’s not a comms issue. it’s a policy issue. labour’s policies are disgustingly bigoted and far right. replacing starmer with burnham doesn’t fix anything.

Friend of mine who is gay applied for a management position, Humphrey did all the interviews himself, told my friend directly "we don't employ your sort". This was like 2017/18 time.

#TheN0ughtie5 Preliminary annoucement about PART V planned for around *** 9PM BST *** tonight. Reminder of what prompted this at the bottom of today's MIDNIGHTS page. This is also the only place where you'll find the full announcement. mu21cvs.com/midnights-to...

#THEN0UGHTIE5 ❗ BONUS CHECK ❗ ** in red = double bonus (8-2 entitlement for 11s/12s) Bold = entitlement used in full Please let me know if this is correct for your Month 1. ⚠️ PLEASE ONLY RESPOND IF YOU ARE ON THIS LIST ⚠️ If you are ranking, I already know your bonuses are Month 2!!!

#THEN0UGHTIE5 It is traditional to do two things at this point, so bear with me: 1. Month 1 stats update and last hint of current state of play 2. Bonus check Later this evening there is also an announcement about Part V. First of all then, stats: Cut-off is currently 30pts...

#THEN0UGHTIE5 players intending to do Part IV #Twen2y526 may be interested in this...

#Twen2y526 It's some time away, but I have a VERY IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT *** OPTIONAL NEW RULE *** Please see Rule 9 in the link below, and Rule 11 for the extended deadline. Thanks. mu21cvs.com/2025/08/18/t...

#THEN0UGHTIE5 Thanks to everyone posting HMs. Please don't let them overlap with the main picks, i..e get them all in before Wednesday morning. Please note that on Tuesday, in less than 48 hours, there will be an *** ANNOUNCEMENT ABOUT PART V ***

The crowd singing Dancing On My Own back to Robyn. Stunning 🥰

On the one hand, I explicitly advise against picking album tracks by MAJOR singles artists - it’s why I ran #ALL50RTS, in which I was the only person to give Girls Aloud 12 points… On the other: We’re gonna need more wood! So who gives a fuck :)

We were doing so well... #THEN0UGHTIE5

#THEN0UGHTIE5 *** HMs *** Reminder for TOMORROW and the rest of June! ⬇️ Please note: instead of daily posts you may - send a DM to the challenge account with 5 HMs - wait until July 20th, and send anywhere between 5 and 50 HMs to the email by the end of July I've got mine, have you? Thanks.

#THEN0UGHTIE5 It's almost MIDNIGHT on HMs Day 1, so here's *** MIDNIGHTS *** Worth a read - it will be pinned until 1st July. mu21cvs.com/midnights-to...

"LGB-no-T" campaigner Julie Bindel says she'd BAN pride if she could, in order to protect children from predatory gay men. Absolutely fucking appalling. A whole column — "A Pride of Perverts" — going on like this. TERFing really cooks the brain.

#TheN0ughtie5 etc I have to say, another part of my motivation for this is that I've already sat on the idea for 15 months, and can't do another six without sharing.

T Pain actually clarified this:

Not a terrible selection if you've never listened to any music made more than 40 miles from where you were born. thequietus.com/interviews/b...

#THEN0UGHTIE5 Hi everyone. Don't forget HMs start in 3 days, and also don't forget: - 1 per day, nice and neat this time - 5 are essential for you to play Part V - Another 45 are essential if you're a double bonus player (NOT UNTIL 20TH JULY PLEASE) - No limit to non-singles in HMs!

#THEN0UGHTIE5 + #TheTwen2ie5 #TheTenx5 #Twen2y526 *** DISCUSSION *** We have several months to decide this, but now it's officially summer I am happy to take soundings between now and September. Please read the '2027' section of this page first, then see replies. mu21cvs.com/future-nosta...

Thanks for reminding me to block you on this account too!

#THEN0UGHTIE5 Get your (shudder) Bush and do a little meme-ing, because a second act has now hit ...how many different songs? (only nine of them are on this album however!) open.spotify.com/album/7nPNZ0...

#Twen2y526 Because I do sometimes get pulled up for not spelling absolutely everything out: 6A. YOU CAN ONLY VOTE FOR THE REMIXES (INCLUDING STATESIDE) IN PART IV as they are the only material released on or after 1 Oct 2025 6B. BUT ONLY IF THEY WERE FIRST RELEASED ON FANCY SOME MORE

In case anyone is thinking ahead to #Twen2y526, a reminder. The main things to remember about Oct 2025 cut-off: - pre-1 Oct can only be an optional HM - that hasn't auto-qualified in Part I - and if you gave it 0pts/5pts/10pts in Part I, you can give it 10/5/0 now mu21cvs.com/2025/08/18/t...

#THEN0UGHTIE5 Gonna have to step in because I have now received two fuil submissions of +50 HMs in advance. *** PLEASE DON'T send these until late July *** As per Rule 9. It's way too much work, creates a huge gap between YOUR PICKS and my sheet and defeats the object of 'boosting'. Thanks.

#THEN0UGHTIE5 In an amusing and slightly spooky coincidence, the three players who posted Lethal Bizzle yesterday are also the first three players to pass the NEIL KULKARNI CLAUSE...

#THEN0UGHTIE5 It's Lethal Bizzle day, and also Hashtag Mishap day.

#THEN0UGHTIE5 A few words on HMs, which are just 10 days away. First - thanks to lots of advance lists - the % of singletons is about 66-67% compared to the usual 80% plus. Therefore I won't be "policing" them. I would still suggest the *majority* shouldn't be unpicked, but... (continued)

#THETWEN2IE5 PARADE - DAY 23 2025 (3/8) The last song for today is not one of my picks... 23.6 (133/138) KATE NASH 'GERM' UK No bonuses 8 x HM ...but I'd have made that 9 HMs if it wasn't already safe. www.youtube.com/watch?v=q2Mo...

#PeoplesPop25 12. KATE NASH - "GERM" 223 Points, 33 Voters High: 8th (80 Votes) Low: 18th (30 Votes) Altpop 3/10 🥉 www.youtube.com/watch?v=q2Mo... Had the briefest nibble at Pollhalla but mostly another noble, consistent Last 16 dropout

#THEN0UGHTIE5 Just posting this so I can pin it, because late starters are not doing as they should. (it would be bloody O-Town of all bands, wouldn't it?) mu21cvs.com/2025/08/18/t...

I think I know the answer, & sorry for being a bit dim, but can I make an eligibility check before it all kicks off: Sandstorm by Darude - widespread international release & chart peak in 2000, from a 2000 album, but had a home-market single release in late 1999 which I presume rules it out?

#UncoolTwo50 #ALT50 "DAY 50" 1999 ZOMBIE NATION 'KERNKRAFT 400' Germany UK #2 (UK Dance #1) Yes, even UK No.2 hits from September 2000 can be picked! That's it from the "Alt 50" - keep sharing your thoughts and lists while I pivot to #LetsDoIt25. Cheers. www.youtube.com/watch?v=z5LW...

#TheN0ughtie5 Tapping the sign again... You may be ok on Rules 5A and 5B, but this is the only rule that at least someone has failed every time. It has to be applied strictly, and immediately, to be fair to everyone who does rank their songs in advance. There is no appeals process.
