"Interestingly" there is a tenuous car connection, as La Harding was saved for 'The Jamie Oliver Petrol Station' in Part I.

The quest for continuous improvement goes on, with this announcement about YOUR PICKS.

I hope to keep this up during March.

'... Doreen Lawrence' is on YOUR PICKS because it's on a list, but the player is ranking and hasn't posted it yet.

This may explain the confusion.

Yes, of course. Just not for #TheTwen2ie5, because it's finished.

Not necessarily any more - read this page!

Maximising participation will override all other considerations when it comes around I think. But I will still give extra reward to those who did submit HMs.

It won't be "all or nothing".

GET LUCKY: QUALIFICATION FOR PART V GET LUCKY is a 2013 No.1 hit by Daft Punk, with Pharrell Williams and Nile Rodgers. This page explains how qualification for Part V will work. It is reasonably heavy, and was initially less promine…

#THETENX5

For full details about how PLAYER qualification for Part V (the finale) currently works - including the role of HMs - please read SECTION 2 of this page.

And bear in mind it'll only be finalised when I have full knowledge of numbers after Part IV.

LAST HMs POSTS until late March

Daily posters who did not submit HMs - all of them did the same in Part I so I assume they have it in hand.

@23duff.bsky.social
@sharkastic.bsky.social
@simonsmith.bsky.social

To take a *full* part in the finale you need to submit HMs, but see reply.

Morning.

Welcome to MONTH 2.

Any previously unpicked songs may not appear on YOUR PICKS for a while, because *another* full list has come in overnight.

Thank you for your understanding.

I think there are only three posters still to give us a 5th HM, which is very good for this time of day.

Anyone else who still wants to reveal five can do, as long as they don't post five times and tag every post :)

(all optional, you can send anything up to 50 HMs by March 31st)

TODAY is…

SATURDAY 28TH FEBRUARY 2026

It is the THIRD AND FINAL DAY of three dedicated to HMs.

It is NOT Day 28 of picking season.

26th – 28th February are for Honourable Mentions (HMs) only. Please don’t keep posting for your main list. Please also ensure your five HMs are posted or sent to me before approximately 0800 UK time on Sunday 1st March. I really don’t want to be processing them alongside regulsr picking season, which re-starts eight hours earlier.

Amidst all the HMs excitement we've had another list in (great timingπŸ˜“).

Check out the playlists for new 20-pointers (especially if you've been waiting on 2019 songs).

It also took my planned HARDING song off zero, but I'll still do the honours when someone posts it publicly...

It's only 10 days to HMs, and this time we have to cram five songs into three days.

I suggest 2 twos and a one.

If you do all five at once, please:

- send a DM
- use a screenshot
- or *at least* PLEASE DON'T use the # 5 different times in one day: tag once and do a reply/thread.

Ta.

The ones I have are:

Janelle

11

Ezra Furman
Billy Strings - Dust In A Baggie
Raphael Saadiq

I have gone right through your 25 posts and can't find another 11.

So, seeing as you've told me twice I'm wrong but not been able to say why, I'm all ears.

For a full list of 50 you need to wait until late March - see rule 9.

This is why I was asking - if you're sure of 5 it's better to post them now as it acts as a prompt for others.

To be clear, "failing" the Poppy Clause means 17 out of 55, from 50 main and 5 HMs, i.e. > 30% (obviously it's 16/50 and 31/100).

One player did fail the Ice Spice Clause for the 2020s - it had no effect on qualifiers, but it can happen.

Quick reminder that your HMs count towards your NKC/PC "compliance".

I very much doubt anyone will fail NKC, but if you've blown two or three HMs on pre-1995 artists I'd be very careful.

Here to help.

I don't mind errors, even I've got it wrong (before we started).

But it's been publicised for a year, on a website since August, I change my name every time a new one starts... and if it isn't spotted and corrected that just looks rude, and it means I have to go looking.
