Occam. But we did get Archimedes. Say what???
Re: Medallion Found
I concur David. I'm going with WTF. The logic behind 90% of these clues would have been impossible to figure out. I posted a note to the CW on the PP board

Re: Medallion Found
These were definitely, by far, some of the worst clues to date for me. Luckily I was not a part of the dreaded '03 hunt and so this is a all-time hunt low for

Re: Medallion Found
It would be AMAZING to have David as the cw. But unfortunately, he can never be the cluewriter, because then he couldn't run this discussion board, and we

With all of the available places to hide the medallion i'm disappointed that they have to keep going back to previous hunt locations ... With all of the

The Pioneer Press Treasure Hunt is part of the St. Paul Winter Carnival every year. While the prize can only go to one winner, The Allison Wonderland is dedicated to the community spirit of treasure hunting. Here, not only will you find out about the Pre-Dig Gig, the Rehash Bash, and various other social events, but we also discuss the clues here in a team effort to decipher them (albeit not always successfully). This is a place to discuss ideas respectfully, report on what's happening "on the ground", and provide each other with useful information. This is a public group so expect that anything posted will be seen by everyone.
