Team M.O.T.H.R.A.

we’ll probably update Tumblr some day (maybe), but in the meantime our items can be found on Twitter

Thank you to our minions, our families, and our friends who have “dealt with us” over the last decade as we forced them to be a part of the creative process. Thank you to all the past winners who have inspired us to keep pushing ourselves. Thank you to all this year’s Runner Ups who created absolutely amazing work. We’re continually astonished by you. Thank you to @gish, Misha, Charlie, @gishbot and all the gnomes who work so so so so hard to make GISH an magical and worthwhile experience for all of us. Thank you for everyone who’s sent us a congrats or pat on the back. We love you. 

Well @gish said 2020 was haunted camp theme, so we had to update accordingly. Unfortunately, it looks like this year’s mascot is the real villain of the story.

 Your team's task: Say goodbye! Bring water-based paints and/or permanent markers and tag the exterior of the vehicle with the following: - Your team's name - Write something on the bus that you or your teammates want to let go of in your lives Submit a photo of your team mate (or proxy) with your graffiti on the bus as proof that you were there. Post your image on social media tagged with @GISHBUS, #GoodybyeGISHBUS & #GISH. Note: Do not write over another team's messages and leave room for other people! Also, please note that this is an industrial park. Use common sense, follow laws, don't disturb the neighboring businesses and give high-fives to any Gishers you see. DO NOT ENTER THE BUS OR DISTURB THE TROLL INSIDE. We mean it. Doing so could mean forfeiture of points or disqualification from the Hunt.

226.  PUZZLE. DO GISH.  SOLVED: "Create a movie trailer for the hit summer rom-com flick "Sole Mates" featuring a lonely pair of love-lorn sock puppets, or "Eternal Flame", about wooden matches looking for true love.

225.  Yeah, yeah. We've got like 8 Guinness World Records, so we're really not impressed by them anymore. But your team loves to collect them, so you went for one anyway. Either on your own or in collaboration with other teams, break the record for the world's largest sock monkey, made all out of socks. Bonus good karma in the afterlife if you fill it with socks and donate it all to a homeless shelter after it's been officially accepted as the new record-holder. See the guidelines here.

224.  SOLVED: Cross stitch Sarris calculating the rule of Sarrus (PUZZLE. New Item, Who Dis? 3x3=9, null=0. And that's the Tea.)

222.  Crack the pinata zipline-style! Play pinata with your friends -- but you must use a zipline to get your shot at hitting it. At least 2 people must play in your video, and someone should crack it open so candy can spill to the people waiting below. - Brenda

220.  Chewing gum tug of war.

221.  You better watch out... Santa Clothes just hit up your local laundromat! The jolly old sartorial elf left presents of laundry soap and quarters for the machine along with notes of encouragement for all the good little folks in need of some help getting the most boring of household tasks done.

218.  Have an attorney draft a class-action lawsuit against humanity on behalf of pollinators. Submit your evidence of the attorney, holding the filed paperwork.

217.  You are an undercover agent for the GISH Bureau of Instigation! Go to a public place looking for someone doing a kind deed. When you spot someone, blow your whistle and identify yourself as a member of the GISH Bureau of Instigation and issue them a citation thanking them for spreading positivity in a public setting (a Section G-2019 violation).
