I JUST learned about Whamageddon, do you play? The object of the game is to avoid WHAM!’s Last Christmas until Christmas Eve, and some DJ across the pond played it at a Northampton Town F.C. match knocking thousands out of the game. (I was waaaayyyyy out in November when my daughter took over our nightly dinner dance party with her Christmas playlist, aka this and Mariah Carey on repeat)

The good news is if you DO play, you are safe from WHAM!’s Last Christmas and (all Christmas music) at Q101! Stream at Q101.com from your computer, ask your smart speaker to play Q101 or download the free Q101 app! <3 Lauren

WHAM!AGEDDON rule for those who want to play:

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 dick, mkay?
