GTPlanet vs. Wham! Episode IV: No More Hope

[Dano20]

I am still going strong I just hope I can get through Christmas

 

[Callum B]

I've totally got this! I only HAVE to go out to a store once more for last minute presents, after that I can hibernate till I'm victorious. Also a bonus is I never watch TV anymore and never listen to the radio, I'm feeling safe. :')

 

[MUSC4EVER]

Its always when you least expect it! ^

 

[Skython]

Today, went to a christmas work party sort of thing. Radio was on, someone was flicking through channels, and then it hit me...

Last christmas I gave you my heart...

And that was it. I wasn't even paying attention, but as soon as his voice hit my ear, it caught my attention, so that's it...

Bugger. I knew that person who posted it on Twitface yesterday was a sign...

Ha.

 

[Skython]

Ha.

This is painful.

It was a small snippet to say something about Christmas music, and it was on a radio station that plays rock music! What!?

Well, at least I was Whammed by natural causes.

 

[Yauma9]

I love the way some of you put your Whammings in your signatures.

 

[photonrider]

Switched from Rock to Jazz . . . still no sign of George.

I did have a terrible experience at the Staff Christmas Party held at a rather large Chinese Buffet Restaurant. Heard a cover and also an instrumental version. I was jumpy and wall-eyed most of the time. I think people thought I was trying to pick up the blonde at a few tables away - but no - she happened to be seated near the speakers. So I couldn't help looking that way every time a new song started. I was most certainly not interested in what was on her plate. In fact, I hardly noticed what was on my plate.

A good buffet perfectly ruined.

Some?

If this thread is a safe zone can you click all the sigs you want and still be in? Just a loophole I may have unearthed.

 

[Lizard]

Why mother do you have to have public radio on in the kitchen? Only 5 days from safety as well.

 

[adam46]

Hearing the Christmas Carol group from school sing it to a poorly done instrumental doesn't count right?

 

[Bopop4]

If this thread is a safe zone can you click all the sigs you want and still be in? Just a loophole I may have unearthed.

It'll lead you to Youtube, which isn't this thread.

An embedded video in this thread is different though, you'll be safe.

Hearing the Christmas Carol group from school sing it to a poorly done instrumental doesn't count right?

Only the original counts.

What happens if the original band comes together and plays it live?

 

[ilikewaffles11]

I'm out. I just KNEW I was gonna get Whammed today. Walking out of school, I heard a cover to the song. Got home, have to take my cats to the vet, get scratched in the process of putting the one in its carrier. So I walk out to the car pissed off because now I'm bleeding, open the door, guess what's playing?

 

[MUSC4EVER]

Got whammed again, third time, Scott Mills radio show, last song he played today, Grrr

 

[Dano20]

I was minding my own business while the family were talking (cause it's my bday) and they knew about this competion.They were then smirking and laughing they then said Last Christmas so I turned to the tv and there it was "Last Chrismtas you gave me my heart" I went rage so I am now officially out.

 

[Anathema]

You never tell anyone about trying to avoid the song. ANYONE.

(Except the select few that also hate the song, such as my father or two of my friends.)

 

[Callum B]

An update, I'm going to anew year party, now hopefully because they're my age they won't even know about this song, but still it worries me slightly it might get me.

 

[TB]

So far, and maybe she just has some dastardly scheme in the works that she has yet to spring on me, but my wife knows and hasn't done anything.

Yet.

 

[Daniel]

She's gonna get you either on Christmas Eve or the jolly day itself.

 

[TB]

Precisely what I'm waiting for, actually.

 

[dhandeh]

When does this officially end? End of Christmas Day or end of the year?

 

[Skython]

When does this officially end? End of Christmas Day or end of the year?

End of the year. It runs until new years.

 

[dhandeh]

End of the year. It runs until new years.

If I make it to Christmas, that will be like a victory, any more will be a bonus.

 

[Wiegert]

End of the year. It runs until new years.

Anyone putting it on during the week following Christmas shouldn't be allowed within a mile of any device capable of playing music.

And my Wham count currently stands at 6. Damage limitation isn't going so well, as you can tell.

 

[ProjectWHaT]

I'm not sure if I'm officially in or not, but I'm still in the clear

 

[AerodyManiac]

Still haven't heard of the original or any cover. 11 days to go!

 

[Small_Fryz]

Got whammed today....

Boss put some Christmas songs on a USB and played them on this jukebox thingo we are selling.... I had done so well to avoid all Christmas songs this year until then... next minute... wham.. last Christmas comes on...

I was honestly sure I'd make it this year.

 

[W3H5]

I, too, thought I would finally beat George this year. It always comes when you're least ready or expecting it. I'd completly put it out of my mind when I got ambushed!

 

[Skython]

Sheesh, Wham has again been brutally ruthless these last few days. I'd say RIP to those who have failed... But I've failed too, so that doesn't really make sense.
