# Whamegeddon 2024

Let’s go!

> **[WHAMAGEDDON](https://whamageddon.com/)**
>
> Avoid 'Last Christmas'. Join the fun. Last until Christmas. Become the envy of your friends and family. Enjoy being a Christmas grinch.

My friend code is: EH5eWXsFi7

## 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 ■■■■, 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!)
