We're quickly approaching the fifth writeup, so here are the next set of clues to compensate! Really excited to see how the guessing game continues to play out, especially with how close things are right now – it's still anyone's game, so if you think you're got a chance, that means you probably do! Also, of course, thank you all for your continued engagement with the thread as per usual. I'm gonna make a point of shortening the writeups up a bit because, frankly, it is exhausting to write when they're as long as they have been (for the most part) and I can definitely say what I need to say in less words than I'm using, so we'll see how that style ends up translating when we get there. Until then, happy guessing, folks!   165. Knowing how weird this artist's short run on the show ended up being, in hindsight, one of the lyrics to a their later song choices of theirs is... funny in a karmic sorta way.  164. Sorry, just clarifying, how far from New Mexico are we talking?  163. Biggest opps: Gaines and Noel.  162. Started their run in the states before they ended things overseas.  161. Okay, so... what was the point of all that, exactly?  160. Adding punctuation to this contestant's name can turn it into a sentence!... A kind of mean one, but still.   

Even though I have two male favorites in Bryan and Nathan, my snowflake this season is absolutely Maddi Jane.
