#GISHWHES (question for Supernatural/Misha Collins fans)

[afterallthistime]

So, I'm going to make a statement that most Supernatural fans were probably already aware of, but bear with me, because I am super, super new to the fandom:

Misha Collins is out of his fucking mind.

I know I have SPN fans, and (I'm pretty sure) even a few of Misha's Minions on my LJ Friends list. I have a few Misha-related question, specifically about GISWHES. Biggest among them is, what the fuck IS IT?

...Because I inadvertently signed up for a registration invite. And dammit, I kind of REALLY want to do it, because all the promo stuff I've seen for it is wild and fucking batshit crazy, and I want in on it. I just don't fucking know what it IS.

Was anyone involved in this last time around? What is involved? What can you tell me about Teams -- are you assigned to them? Do you you pick them? Do you have to be in the same geographical region as your teammates (i.e., can I find my team mates on LJ and Tumblr)??

Anything, guys. Anything at all you can tell me will be awesome.

HA HA, AWESOME. I found some remnants from last year's website, and it said that you can form teams or be assigned to teams, and it really is a scavenger hunt, but... I don't know man, I saw the video, the items seem REALLY FUCKING WEIRD. Did you see the video of the girl singing? Well, started out as her singing, tot he tune of "One My Own" from Les Mis, and the first two lines were, "GISHWHES is me dressed up as a robot / Swedish fish made up like Padalecki..." and then something about toe boobs, and at that point I IMed my mom with "WTF IS WRONG WITH MISHA COLLINS" and decided I HAD to participate, lol.

I feel like I heard a tiny bit about this, but never followed up on it? I definitely know that the list was super weird, but I figure it's just one more random Thing From The Internet to take up my time. /shrug. Basically, Misha Collins is a gift.
