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 ■■■■, mkay?
Last year I got Wham’d on December 3rd when I forgot to wear headphones at Walmart. The year before I got Wham’d from a Netflix preview. This year, I need to be better about following my own tips:
Curate your own holiday playlist
Use headphones in any public place
Only watch “approved” holiday movies. Sound off while browsing movies on streaming services
Do not listen to the radio!
Threaten bodily harm to family members that wish to Wham you (kidding!)
Shoot… got wham’d already. Was helping wife put kid in car and she started it. Radio kicks on and wham…. Last Christmas I’ll give you my… yall know the rest.
