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.
No user inform…
seems like no one really knows where to look the clues still seem general and frustrating anyone have any theories
Yes Grannie2Bagin, I thought of that. Como is still my pet theory. I can fit it to all the clues, but its too much territory for me to cover by myself.
Grannie - #2 doesn't think it is newell. Yes, the 4th clue spells out newell, but it also says if you want to be an iconoclast (go against everyones belief, which is that it

I think Allison Wonderland has it right on the money.

"If the iconoclast reference means challenge the conventional thinking then it just MIGHT be in the same park it was in only 2 years ago..."
If you stretch the clue far enough, you can wrap it around any park. Best to use broad, simple ideas and hope they all add up --in my experience anyway.

Alright, here's my address theory again. If you were trying to find an address, the 900 block would be easy to find. Even 950 wouldn't be too hard. But if it wasn't
labeled, you'd have to estimate where 954 would be (somewhere a four). On Como Ave Leading up to Chatsworth the address at Kilburn and Como Ave. is 950.
The next house is 958. This part of the park is far from the golf course or the action of the big snow slide. The Tower from Chelsea Heights school can be discerned
through the trees, and Milton St. is one of the streets a couple of (short) blocks down. Only an iconoclast would think they would hide it in Como again when it was
there just two years ago (for those of you who study the past).
I don't know when Como closes, but I was there past 1AM last night. Besides, this is a very obscure part of the park away from anything that could be damaged.

huh huh huh huh huh huh Beaver huh huh huh huh huh hookers...you are all very immature!
Digdog, Go to France and let us know if you find anything
.
Grannie--there's food for thought!!
WELL I WILL GUARANTTEE ALL OF YOU THAT THIS CLUE WILL GIVE THE LOCATION!!!
WHAT ARE HOURS OPEN ON WARMING HOUSE? 9 TO 4, 9 TO 5, 5 TO 9? WHY DO I KEEP GETTING EDIT DELETE BUTTONS?
Yes Grannie2Bagin, I thought of that. Como is still my pet theory. I can fit it to all the clues, but its too much territory for me to cover by myself.
I Think it is in Como Park, It would be a rebelact to put it there
gone to france*
Hey ding dong...bubba left after saying mushie that is good// bet he is out there looking right now with my interpretation!! haha!!
HOW BIZARRE!!
The edit/delete buttons are so you can edit or delete your own messages. Too bad you can't do the same to others!
Granny, It is not near a golf course, sorry.
Grannie - #2 doesn't think it is newell. Yes, the 4th clue spells out newell, but it also says if you want to be an iconoclast (go against everyones belief, which is that it
is at newell) you will find it.
OK EVERYBODY THINKS ITS IN DIFFERENT PARKS JSUT LIKE I THINK NEWELL SOMETHING OLD LAST TIME IT WAS THERE WAS IN 74
AND IT HAS NEW IN THE NAME. I HAVE HEARD AT LEAST 14 DIFFERENT PARKS EVEN ONES IN PARIS. LOL
DARN--no college tuition 4 me!!

LOL :-)
An iconoclast can also mean a person who distroys religious stuff.
WHAT WAS THE CLUE WITH "GOAL". A GOAL IS HOCKEY, NOT BASEBALL, FOOTBALL SO IT IS WHERE THERE ARE HOCKEY RINKS.
DOES NEWELL OR MERRIAM HAVE HOCKEY RINKS?
It could be in Como, just no where near the golf course.
Guess what the address is @ BC park?
Dingdong f-france, and allison you had a great thought, of course they don't want us to find it,
It is definately not in Newell Park, perhaps in College Park, never has been there and it fits the yearn to learn clue
I DON'T KNOW!!!!!!! I JUST DON'T KNOW!!!!!!!! AAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!
Hey Allison, what do you make of the 9-5-4 adorn the door thing as it relates to como? I too have a feeling about como
Thanks Egghead for recognizing wisdom born of futility.

looking at addresses...did one slip by me?
FIREMAN Tell us more.....address for BC is?
At the bottom of a ski flying/jumping slide, the final stopping area is called the "goal."
yeah, well it's just too easy to spin off on one of those infinite loops of reasoning....

ok--Como and Newell people, what reasoning do you have?

labeled, you'd have to estimate where 954 would be (somewhere a four). On Como Ave Leading up to Chatsworth the address at Kilburn and Como Ave. is 950.

SISTER SISTER WHAT IS YOUR THEORY ON THE 954?
I thought the 9,5 and 4 thing might be bus lines, but they don't intersect.
There are also television channels, but I don't really see any common link there either; not in St. Paul anyway.
Good Evening - Golden Boy just checkin' in.
I would have to say that this has absolutely nothing to do with a golf course...they just do not want them distroyed!
Newell Park is really tiny. Too tiny for the kind of crowd $10,000 will attract.
Allison, I heard they were enforcing the park closing hours at como... not sure if that is true....but if it is I don't see how it can be in como.
very interesting Alison.
Grannie - Not sure anymore. Many good ideas, but not sure of the park, so it's hard to decide on one
Can i hear someone's reasoning behind como and newell??
I don't know when Como closes, but I was there past 1AM last night. Besides, this is a very obscure part of the park away from anything that could be damaged.
I think we should try to come to a consensus as to which park (at least!)
