Still in. Flirted with the edge of danger listening to Virgin on the way to collect my young lass from dancing. All good. Survived! :)

Oh wow, the first day was a massacre. I survived a brief visit to a local Christmas market yesterday so I'm still in.

Today, I avoided my favourite radio station but I stalked their playlist. Apparently, they play one Christmas song per hour in the first 20 minutes of each hour so if I switch off the radio each hour for the dangerous period, I should be fine. I did miss listening to it.

I’ve unplugged our downstairs radio. My wife has a stinking cold and has spent most of the day in bed. Still in

Realised with horror at lunchtime that I was at the same venue that had me out last year. I complained last year though (lightheartedly) and there was no Christmas music today!

That’s funny Winniefree :)

Easy to avoid today, tomorrow I’m back at work, radios in all the waiting rooms increases the jeopardy…

I think I might play this year 😊

C turned the radio over yesterday because they were playing something festive and we don’t have it on at work (not allowed!) so if I stay away from shops I might have a fighting chance of at least making it through the first week.

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?"
