2003 ThoseMedalingKids Mock Hunt

Submitted by ThoseMedallingKids on

Here is all the pertinent information on the hunt:

The TMK mock hunt will start on Wednesday, September 17, and end on Sunday, September 28.

Clues will be released at 9 pm each night.

There will be 12 clues in all.

The treasure will be hidden on public land in Ramsey County (stay out of the fairgrounds, off the indian mounds)

The treasure will not be hidden in a spot that will endanger hunters (along a cliff, under an electrical box, on the water of a lake/river, etc)

If there are questions or concerns, please try reaching me by email or egram. I will have my cell phone with me, but while I am at work it will be off. I will check messages during breaks though.

Prize will be announced. Donations are welcome.

It has become obvious that Ares isn't 'into' this hunt as much since he hasn't been around and would rather play SIM City than play with clues. :(

My thinking with it was that those who couldn't get it would still be looking outside of St Paul. Those who did would know to look in St Paul.

The gang found a note with this rhyme
 "For one devil of a good time
 From very near you will embark
 and go to a St Paul Park"

somewhere a gang would hang out would be devils den

A cryptogram wouldn't have been so bad as long as we at least *knew* it was a cryptogram. The hardest part is trying to figure what kind of puzzle it is you're trying to solve to begin with.

And yes, there is a Devil's Den in Newell, that's why I said that. or at least some guy always used to post on the board about the Devil's Den in Newell.

And yes, I'm a bit distracted. Have a girl coming over.

AW, you would have known it was a cryptogram. The clue would have looked like:

14 23 9 21 3 11 21......

A=3
G=21

Where you would have known it was a cryptogram. At least I would assume you would know. Alas I didn't. Just shows how devious I was going to be ;)

Oooh, looking at my post I would have really had to format it good. Guess it did work out well.

From very near you will embark...

Does that mean it's at something like Harriet Island or somewhere else you could get on a boat? Phalen? Back to the golf balls.
