Manchester (he/him)

It's that time of year again where the turkeys are nervous and there's a jingle in your bells, so who's in for this year's game?

It's not that complicated. Allow me to enlighten you.

THE FIRST RULE

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

THE SECOND RULE

The game starts on December 1st, and ends at midnight on December 24th.

Use your local timezone, if you'd like.

(Yes, we're European heathens)

THE THIRD RULE

Only the original version applies. Enjoy the fuck out of remixes and covers.

THE FOURTH RULE

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

While I 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?

Has it got to be the Wham original, what about cover versions or pub singers!

Like many of Michael’s songs, it sounds great stripped down and played acoustically. He was just a boy when he wrote it, bit of a genius was George.

"I heard today that The Queen is thinking of issuing a decree to stop this song being played over Christmas.

Wham banned? Thank you ma'am. "

Amazing.

I’m still in, but it’s work Xmas party tomorrow night and I can sense the sword of Wham-ocles hanging over my head.

And another day cleared - had to sit in a dentist waiting room for a while earlier and was dreading them putting music on but didn't happen...then the TV ad for the film of the same name came on but I la la la la'd loudly till it was over...finally was watching an old Xmas edition of The Apollo stand up thing where each act came out to a Xmas song but mercifully no sittings...

...so into Day 6 I go

Going well. Was in the cafe for an hour this morning, but Capital aren't playing Christmas songs yet...

If anything it'll be co op that ruins it...

Still in but heading into town. Is it against the spirit of the game to put headphones in?

There and to the left a bit

Have just survived The Range and a prolonged visit to Sainsburys - the latter spent cringing as each Xmas song played came to an end but unscathed and barring a disaster heading into day seven in the Whamaggedon house

Il need an adjudication. I was talking to the painter on site yesterday and he started singing ‘ the song that can’t not be heard ‘.

Am I still in or out ?

Happy to play, I completely hate whams last christmas

When you think about it, it's first release was 83/84

I must have heard the song hundreds and hundreds of times, in fact I dislike most Christmas songs for the same reason!

Day 7 in whammageddon and I'm still in. Many people today are running the gambit of Christmas shopping and socialising though. I sense a thinning of the field over the next two days...

I’m out. As predicted, the work party was an inevitable hurdle.

Good look to those still standing.
