It's time for the Medallion Hunt! The first clue will appear on PioneerPlanet just after midnight Saturday, Jan. 22. Come back here to compare notes with other treasure seekers, but be certain you read the rules on the Planet's Winter Carnival page.

I must say I really like the Fairview thing. FAIRway also scene=VIEW. good thinking!!!
How about out at Highland Park? Where the frisbee golf course runs through the park and through the clock tower, ice arenea, police station, movie store......making any sense?????? highland Pak I bet
no prob, I have 3 sheets of paper full of info and I can't really make it out. To me, it all points to Newell but I don't think the PP would make it that easy on only the 3rd Clue. How many times in the past have people been right on with the 3rd clue?
Golden Boy, if I'm off the mark here, let me know. But I'm assuming you've done this before, as have I, so you know good and well that the medallion is more frequently, way more frequently, in fact almost always, not just searched for, but found, in the larger parks. If my estimation is correct, it has been hidden at Como Park, more than anywhere else. Not to mention the fact that by clue 8, we're all pretty darn sure what park it's in. If you were here on the water cooler discussion last year, you know that we all had Cherokee pretty well pegged by about clue 5. I'm talking like positive i.d., we just didn't know where in Cherokee. Of course there were a few "idiots" who would come on from time to time and swear that digging up Mound, was the way to go, but we know that medallion will never be in Mound again. Whew, I'm rambling.....bed time!
Whos to say that their not ruling our phalen,como and highland with the 1st clue. Fairway could be FAIRVIEW! and Green could be what color its hidden in???(the madallion)Wrong Scene being the Parks WITH G.Courses??
Birdie - "Our Doubts make traitors of us all". The reason we're on line at 1 am is to figure it out ON THE THIRD CLUE. I think we need to keep exercising our minds - but I do think NP has more going for it than any other place right now. Re: It's a small park - It was hidden there in '84. Are you familiar with the park?
maybe wasting TIME and the 9,5,4 means a clock.... maybe the numbers 9,5,&4 are the only ones visible from the precise location of the med... last year was like that with being able to see the capitol dome through the trees... the spot it was most visible from was the spot the med was in....
Shovel Boy - Yes Yes - I was here last year. And I would agree with you except that I think this year will be different - because of the 150th, besides they used Newell before in '84 I think. Como, Phalen, Highland, ya all good prospects, but Newell's got alot of references. If I were strap on the sorels tonight - I'd head to Newell. I guess we'll know alot more when the 4th and 5th clues come out.
#3 CHANCES ARE NIL IF YOU GET TO CLOSE TO THE ACTION. The clues are pointing us towards Newell. But clue #3 says that we should stay away from where everyone will be-NEWELL
150 anniversary of PP. Nil= 0 take 0 off of 150 = 15 15 years ago at newell park. Park is in 900 block. 15 years ago medallion was found attached to a broken 45rpm record. 9 4 5
maybe the 9, 5, and 4 all mean different things.... there are 9 innings in a baseball game which indicates a score board, i have no idea what sport the 5 could relate to, but the "somewhere a four" is in direct correlation to "adorn the front door" so maybe the building with the number 4 on it is near the baseball field and whatever 5 would mean...
I don't know but newell is sounding good but don't hold me too that!!!Something else will probably sound better tomorrow this time! I hope its not though because I don't know newell to well!! :(
I have been trying to get the clues for all of the 80's but no luck.. Will let you know. All I know it that it was there in 84' in attatch to the Rpm....................
hey ya know what??? i highly doubt that clues would refer to past hiding spots or what the med was hidden in that year... REMEMBER.. everyone doesnt have the internet and are forced to read the clues to mean PLACES or OBJECTS without any signifigance to the history of the hunt...
thats it....there are 5 players on a basketball or even hockey team... so now i think 9+keep score= baseball fields, 5=hockey rink and 4=the number on a door at the park....
I must say I really like the Fairview thing. FAIRway also scene=VIEW. good thinking!!!

Thats fine, I am just trying to help, if you think it is at Keller, good luck

DID ANYONE GO OUT
Terry: History lesson is in your mailbox.
MATTY K-E-L-L-E-R = M-A-P-L-E-W-O-O-D (larpenteur is the border between maplewood and st.Paul)
I am looking at the first clue hard and wondering what "wasting time" and "won't be caught" could add up too.?.?.

Amy,
you know the saying, you can lead a horse to water but you can't make them drink
`Thinking why would I want to shout
Not really similar. We do need to look because It has hinted at what it is in too because they always hint at what it is in by the 3rd clue.
Just throughing something out here,
nine and five, 1995 found in Battle Creek four = four years ago
Only Ski Jump in area?
maybe wasting TIME and the 9,5,4 means a clock.... maybe the numbers 9,5,&4 are the only ones visible from the precise location of the med... last year was like that with being able to see the capitol dome through the trees... the spot it was most visible from was the spot the med was in....
Is there a house that can be seen from Newell with the address 954 or 945??
Thanks Ittiz! Received, noodled, saved and answered.
Maybe it is in a sample pack of Shout laundry detergent?
Shovel Boy - Yes Yes - I was here last year. And I would agree with you except that I think this year will be different - because of the 150th, besides they used Newell before in '84 I think.

What about the clock in Highland?????
#3 CHANCES ARE NIL IF YOU GET TO CLOSE TO THE ACTION. The clues are pointing us towards Newell. But clue #3 says that we should stay away from where everyone will be-NEWELL
Good one Duff...
Is 4 5 9 A cleaning product?? Could it be hidden in that?
9, 5, and 4 the holes of a golf course??????
Is the PP telling us to stay away from Newell??
Hey Marshmellow- I think it's 409.nice try though.
Amy T - you see any other Newell references in #3
9-5=4 what about that???
ani its not going to have anything to do with simple arithmatic probably address....
Nine hours of sleep that I'd like to get....
Five o'clock when the alarm first goes off.
Four hours sleep....somewhere in this equation.
See you all tomorrow!
where is a ski jump in this area???
150 anniversary of PP. Nil= 0 take 0 off of 150 = 15 15 years ago at newell park. Park is in 900 block. 15 years ago medallion was found attached to a broken 45rpm record. 9 4 5
900 block.....ummmmmm....just south of the fairgrounds (FAIRway) or just plain Fairview ave......I dunno:)
Matty - that would be near battle creek.
is there a graveyard near one of the parks......."near the gate"
maybe the 9, 5, and 4 all mean different things.... there are 9 innings in a baseball game which indicates a score board, i have no idea what sport the 5 could relate to, but the "somewhere a four" is in direct correlation to "adorn the front door" so maybe the building with the number 4 on it is near the baseball field and whatever 5 would mean...
Bill K - your grasp of numbers astounds me - you're stretching - but I like it.
Does anyone have the clues for 1984?
I don't know but newell is sounding good but don't hold me too that!!!Something else will probably sound better tomorrow this time! I hope its not though because I don't know newell to well!! :(
is there a basketball court in newell?
Par 5??????????
yes, b-ball court at newell, why?
I have been trying to get the clues for all of the 80's but no luck.. Will let you know. All I know it that it was there in 84' in attatch to the Rpm....................
Maybe 9 5 and 4 are the positions on a softball field... they make a straight line...
hey ya know what??? i highly doubt that clues would refer to past hiding spots or what the med was hidden in that year... REMEMBER.. everyone doesnt have the internet and are forced to read the clues to mean PLACES or OBJECTS without any signifigance to the history of the hunt...
I think it goes way way back beyond our memories
no they dont grahm
thats it....there are 5 players on a basketball or even hockey team... so now i think 9+keep score= baseball fields, 5=hockey rink and 4=the number on a door at the park....
dont all the parks have b-ball courts and hockey rinks?
