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.
I said that because I didn't want you guys getting arrested or anything like that :P
anyone know where Ash Ave is?
or even if there is one?
and villain -you can get Indian out of that and the next word cornered has corn in it and Indians liked corn-right :) so it has gotta be there ;)
Golf balls?
Where are you moving to, Allison - and why?
Not sure where yet. Just found out a few days ago that it was time to move. Brooklyn Center and Eagan are looking like the most likely prospects at this point. I had someone make me a great deal for a place in Eagan, but the rent is $800 a month and I need to know that I have a job where I'll be able to pay for it first. As for why $800 is a great deal, it's 4 bedrooms, 3 baths (one with a whirlpool), and 2040 square feet.
As for why, my roommate is finally getting off active duty in the air force and he only wanted a roommate for as long as he was going to be gone.
Soooo Crosby/Scooby is out? darn darn darn :)
it was close!
The only "Ash" street is Ashland. It's and east-west street in the Summit University area.
$800 is a good deal for a place like that!
Golf balls?
we went from mounds to,,,golf balls?
women to men? hmmmmmm
golf balls are lumpy?
and AW---WOW! that is too much to pass up---YOU GO RABBIT!
WONDERFUL!
AW, where in Eagan?
Reminds me of a joke I heard at a comedy club.
You know how a lot of strippers are named after cities? They might have names like Houston or (forgot the other plausible name). You can't do that here in Minnesota though. Can you imagine a stripper named Fridley? Minnetonka? Moundsview? Well, ok, Moundsview might actually work...
me2 - one has to put a woman's perspective to these things. You know that!
But how do we get "Look for golf balls left then found" at Mounds?
I don't know where in Eagan yet. I've been finding out by email from a friend of mine. He owns the house and he just uses the bottom level. Plus he's out of town generally during the week and only home on weekends. I would have the upper part of the house (which includes everything mentioned above). I'm guessing it's not in a bad part or anything (if there is a bad part of Eagan?). Basically it's a similar situation to where I am now where I get a good deal because I'm semi-housesitting.
If its an ambiguous stripper, would the name be Shakopee?
Maybe it's hidden inside a golf ball.
No, there isn't really a bad part of Eagan. At least that I know of. Being in the northern part would be nice. That's where I grew up.
ok, so maybe he's not saying "left" as in look to your left but someone "left" it there and then found it? so maybe within eyesight of a green or fairway?
or Minnehaha ;)
It could be at Phalen, but I have a hard time believing he'd use a park that's been used by two Mock Hunts in two years. Then again, neither hunt used the park proper.
Minnehaha would be the name of a not very effective male stripper.
damn! I wish I could find my hunters guide!!!!
I suppose a male prostitute would be Woodbury?
I got HR Puff (&) Stuff out of this clue :)
My THG is still in my truck from the last hunt. So I got that going for me, which is nice. :)
David-your hunt and who elses?
and also note: If he is preparing us for a Ma Press hunt then why not reuse a park again and again and again till we become Phaleophobic or make Kids is sick of hearing everything turned into a sexual inuendo and his payback is MOUNDS, giving us all a Sexual Aversion Disorder
Thats it! thats his game!
I might have deciphered a clue! Finally! Has anyone noted yet that the first letter of each word in the first line of the last clue spells out TENNIS?
Phaleophobic
I thought that was fear of dinosaurs...
The first puck posse hunt after the Medallion hunt was at Phalen. I forget the name of the guy that did it. McSomething I think.
Nice noodle OT!
And the first letters in the second line spells courts
OT, your ruined it!
Oh well. ;-) Good job.
U all go from one topic to another without missing a beat. I think a few of u think with the wrong heads sometimes :)

The one on my shoulders?
Haha Terry. I got so excited I didn't bother reading the second line. Did I do something wrong? Wasn't I supposed to share that? Are you thinking of Kilty's hunt AW? I don't remember if he's a PP or a CC though.
Told you I was going to be sneaky about things. I'm not just going to tell you all what it is ;)
I only can think with my other head for 3 minutes tops anyway. Then it's back to noodeling. ;-)
No, you were just fine OT. I didn't mean to make it seem like I jumped on you about posting that. It went on long enough anyway I guess. It wasn't like we were holding it back from anyone, it was just that it was one of those clues that really doesn't narrow much down but is fun to figure out on your own. I'm glad you shown your enthusiasm when you figured it out.
It's called multi-tasking. :-)
Are you thinking of Kilty's hunt AW?
Yes, Kilt-y. I knew it was something Scottish, hehe
I only can think with my other head for 3 minutes tops. Then it's back to noodeling. ;-)
hahaha now think of it in reverse ;)
noodlin' hahahaa ;I
Those were the easiest clues ive ever seen.
ok- I am going to bed
heard it to be sunny and no clouds tomorrow
YEAH! nudiedude day :) NOT ;)
oh yeah- the PP did have one there-under a pier thingy
Doesn't highland park have any tennis courts? I didn't see any on their map.
Night me2!
Be nice Reggie, he's a good kid. I thought it was hard! :)
Goodnight me2! SCDs!
That's far from any place the coin could be tho.
well I am trying to leave!
yeah Highland has tennis courts
why would you need those ;)
I'm stumped! I don't really like phalen much anymore, If I had my book I'd be able to noodle better!
Night me2.
Happy 'noodlin'
if ya know what I mean ;-)
