Whamageddon!

[Weedygarden]

Do you know about Whamageddon? I learned about it a couple of years ago from someone I know who finally lost. I lost today! I heard it today.

The Rules!​

The 1st Rule​

The objective is to go as long as possible without hearing WHAM's Christmas classic; "Last Christmas".

The 2nd Rule​

The game starts on December 1st, and finishes at the end of December 24th.
Use your local timezone, if you'd like.
(Yes, we're European heathens)

The 3rd Rule​

Only the original version applies. Enjoy the ?#!$&%! out of remixes and covers.

The 4th Rule​

You're out as soon as you recognise the song.

Bonus Rule​

Post on social media with the #whamageddon hashtag when you get hit.

PvP?​

While we can't stop you from deliberately sending your friends to Whamhalla, the intention is that this is a survival game. Not a Battle Royale. So ... don't be a dick, mkay?

Well, I'm out.. Immediately clicked on the music video.. I just wanted to see How Long it would take in the vid until 'Michael' migrated to making googly-eyes at Her Boyfriend..

PS - It'd also be fun to come up with 'Alt-lyrics', ie: ...Ahem...

'Laaaaast Fishmas, I caught you a Trout
but before I could "Yay!", it got awaaaayyyyy

Thiiiis year, so save me from jeers
I'll be sure to use a Tre-ble, Treble..'

Ehh, blame the EggNog..

I'm singing the Wham song as I type!! Never lost a game like this before

 

[Wingnut]

Ditto, and I hope to never hear it, lol...

 

[Amish Heart]

Ugh. Everyone sings this song and I hear it all the time

 

[Morgan101]

I would have lost in the first five minutes. I agree with Amish Heart. This song has been covered more times than Happy Birthday. I already heard it today!!

 

[Pearl]

Better than Mariah Carey's "All I Want For Christmas"!!

 

[Curmudgeon]

Gaahhhh, If that ever came on the radio I would turn it down immediately.

That's the first time I have heard it.

I can not take Mariah Carey anything, but I do love the Last Christmas song and just watched the movie, Last Christmas, last night for probably the 5th time. I guess I'm a weirdo but I love then both.

I have been looking for the movie. Where did you find it?

I found it last year at Best Buy.
