The clue isn't released tonight at the PP until about 11:30 so the Vulcans can have some fun first.

Triple E = shoes on the side of the Scheffer Rec building

= wide doors

= some stone arch thing dedicated at Como

= E stickers on some doors

= lEvEE street

= chErokEE

= EilEEn wEida

and a million others.

Green - MI? I don't think so! LOL!!! That must be that 48 oz. margarita you polished off!

Evening all.

I ran Allison's cipher theory on clue 5 through an anogram web site. (a theory he himself didn't think much of, but it interested me.) I got about 100 anagrams from it, so I won't post them all. But here are some of my favorites:

Watery or low-powered stings.
It rows desperately grow now.
Strategy or low-powered wins.
Low-powered strategy in rows.
Good typewriters answer low.
Stingy or low-powered Waters.
Trying as low-powered towers.
Trying or low-powered sweats.

Please note, that anagram came from a CIPHER of the 5th clue: every third letter (starting with the 1st) of the last three lines. The anagram website may prove useful to everyone though, cause it's free: http://www.anagramgenius.com

I have all the clues figured out and the only one I am having a problem with is this triple E thing. I could only imagine whatever it may be its either between them or in them -the med is wrapped in it
I seen the Famous Med van down there tonight. were any of you down there this morning between 8 or 10 am? That guy wearing the camo looking in the brush and a guy wearing bibs and two women. I seen a bunch of kids on the steps TMKs? :)

Boy, that is alot of work, Stallion; so did you narrow it down?

MedallionStallion

Just because people have been diggin through a park for a long time already, or there are hundreds of people already there, doesn't mean they will find the medallion! (Although it is more likely to be found when 100's of people are there) Isn't a for sure thing though. So if you REALLY think the clues fit a certian park, don't let the fact hundreds of people have already been there hold you back.

I have to be honest, I'm not good at this anagram stuff. I emailed the full list to Allison cause I figure if it's THAT complicated he might be able to make more sense of it. But no, none of the anagrams don't seem too helpful. It's very possible I have to chiper wrong.

Well put, Stal, well put. (high fiving Stal)

lol Matt!
KT, I haven't been out doing much digging, done some park scouting, and did rake a nice section of leaves for a couple hours at HI during the Superbowl. I'm conserving my energy for "the" clue ;) I'm trying to get more daylight digging in, as Marley's convinced me the chances of seeing it are better. (I did find a flag stamp in the leaves)

  • With a car, you don't get far
  • And a horse would get you nowhere.
  • But celebrate, it's not too late
  • For round and round, you'll get there.

    Triple E= lEvEE? somewhere in all that tall weeds and grass on the side of the embankment under the telephone lines (gab with hunting crew) I'll bet someone 15 grand if its found in any other park than Harriet/lilydale area

    my precioussss cooler headssss, just got thru slogging a million messages. I got nothin... gosh, our complainin really got us a good hunt. I haven't decided if it's a good thing or a horrible, evil thing. I am leaning more towards horrible since I got sick. Clue 6 again? I wouldn't be coughing like an 80-year-old man smoking non-filters. Can't wait till 11:30!!!
