Discuss the 2003 Pioneer Press Medallion Here.

Bens, there will always be Lurkers. So?

Everyone will believe what they want to believe.

I say what I say as I truly believe it. These are no "Watson Park" ideas. I may beee in left field, "I may beee crazy...

"But it just may be a lunatic you're searching for." (Billy Joel)

I'm just noodlin' the clues the way I see them; the way I see folks having probs in HI.

I'm no better than, and prolly a'hell of a lot worse, than many noodlers here.

Regman: Of course it wouldn't be in a fenced in area. But you need to take it one or three steps further than that. It won't be in a park with a fenced in area like that. Once the geographic location is known to all, nothing is sacred from edge to edge. (See: Every single park I have ever seen in a hunt; all trees, all curbs, all sidewalks, all garbage cans, everything with an edge has a 6 inch ditch around it. Make no note that the medallion has NEVER been in a high traffic area of a park or RIGHT NEXT to any object's trunk, legs, etc.)

Half the time the messages are \" jakes at buggs" (like i give a shinny)

Me either.

By the way LL, Gannon shouldn't be associated with the word "great" after his performance on Sunday.

Reg: They're still quite sacred to those who are happy to throw a fit. I'm sure they're out there.

If Mounds were out of the running - the park would be listed on the do not hunt list in the rules.

Those are the real mounds.

Terry: If the middle of the streets weren't valid, they'd say that in the rules, too?

It's all about what I'll call political logic. If I were the [probable] level-headed person responsible for this event, I wouldn't even think about sparking something like that again.

Anyhow. Hopefully tonights clue is good. I never thought how sucky a hard hunt would be, when I was thinking that it would be cool to have one..... damn.

This is nothing. I remember when it came close to cluetime and there were perhaps 3 or 4 people talking on the forum, and WebX would crash or the ISP would be flooded by all the requests.

Logically, 4 people would never take down a webserver... That makes for a lot of lurkers. *waves to the shy crowd*

Matt - Middle of the streets is one thing.

Public St. Paul park is another.

For all the years that clues have led folks to Mounds since the 87 hunt, there have been no repeats of any incidents with the sacred ground. That sacred ground is now fenced off with signs posted. Anyone found inside those fences would be hounded to death by other hunters out there.

Also some of us with kids will be signed on, but go help w/ homework, look at the 'Cooler, go drive to cheerleading practice, look at the 'Cooler, tuck a kid into bed, look at the 'Cooler, etc, and we get busy and still are signed on, but come back and forth; you gotta have kids to understand that....

Hahaha, I sure hope curling isn't the greatest of sports. It's amazing, but anyone who can stand playing more than a half of a round of it is seriously.. pucked.. in the noggin. ;)

"The St Paul Curling Club is the largest Curling Club in the United States; the WInter Carnival activities are the largest of the year for the curling club. Vulcans even participate."

Hello again!

Finally done slogging, and I think - if I know what's good for me - I'm going to try to get a catnap before clue time. The clue tonight just HAS to point to something that'll make some SENSE!

Green, Terry - trust you got whatever needed figuring out, figured out.

There's quite a few people at Mounds still and Scheffer. I can't make all the clues fit at either one.

BBIAW.

It's only easy once you know how. There's a learning curver to everything.

Mom - Rest up!

My hunting partner just got home. I think he'll be resting up now until the next clue in case we get that here-it-is clue and need to hunt.

Croix, everything izz - until you learn/get shown/know it. Sometimes just the first part's the hardest.

Don't worry about it. Worry about sumpin' important - like finding The Med...
