Still in!

I think Lewisham shopping centre is the main risk. I don't listen to music radio or go anywhere much with background music.

Sigh-lent Night
I survived the pub.

Bit concerned about Hanley parkrun tomorrow, actually. The last few times I've been there, there's been this young chap who insists on playing music loudly from inside his bag - all rather odd - and seems to delight in choosing "crowd pleasers". It'd be somewhat odd to have survived in shops & the like for 3 days and then to get knocked out at parkrun.

I was a sitting duck waiting at the dentist's this afternoon as local radio was on but thankfully it was Mariah, not Wham. I'm about to brave the supermarket though...

Survived Curry’s. Mariah was blaring out as I went in so I anxious about what was to follow.

Mrs D suggested a Christmas comedy film tonight which I flatly refused.

I'm still in, although there may be some risks taken tomorrow.

Haven’t heard it yet, just flipped the TV onto TOTP 1984, half way through Paul Young when I realised it was high risk and turned over!

You lasted half a Paul Young song. That’s admirable in itself….

Still in. Main risk tomorrow is having the radio on in the car for an hour’s drive. Might have to put Radio 3 on.

About This Thread

Maintained by Sigh
GOOGLE SHEET HERE:

docs.google.com

Sheet for 2024 is on the first tab; you update your own entry. As with previous years, we're also tracking the number of repeated 'hits' for those who are out before the end (if you want to).

Who's up for the challenge then? whamageddon.com

"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.

The 3rd Rule
Only the original version applies.

The 4th Rule
You're out as soon as you recognise the song.

Player vs Player?
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, okay?"
