2004 Allison Wonderland Mock Hunt

Submitted by THX 1138 on

Welcome to the 5th Annual Allison Wonderland Mock Hunt!

The treasure was found just before 9am on Wednesday, March 10th, by Me2. She will get a prize around $290 plus a variety of other goodies. It was found in Marydale Park on the north side in a pit under a tree near lamp post #12.

The wrap up party will be Saturday, March 13th at 8pm at Fabulous Fern's.

Then Alice did see Tweedledum and Tweedledee
Like goofs standing very still as if they were unaware
Then alive they came, saying to win us this tiny game
You will first have to perfectly eliminate every last pair.

I'm guessing, from the capitals, that this is how it should read.

Eliminate every last pair of lines? Or letters?

If you eliminate each pair of letters you end up with korc = rock.

We were out there again tonight. Hard to see much in the dark and the only flashlight we had that still had decent batteries was a small one.

The clues fit though!

And it's so weird to be out night seeking and find yourselves alone in a park. Spooky almost.

I almost forgot! The moon tonight is incredible! If you haven't peeked at it yet, go do it! Gorgeous!

I'm following the rules. No Joe's allowed in Wonderland. Only unJoe's. UnJoe! ;)

Sometimes they're just too hard to resist and you have to bend the rules a little.

You can't bend 'em until you figure them out! ROFL!!!!!!!

I just know this is important..and want to post it...its from my old college lit class...

Nonsense also grows out of the confusion that results when the meaning of a word is changed by the substitution of one letter or syllable for another. In Alice's adventures in Wonderland, Lewis Carroll shows is master of this type of manipulation":
"Reeling and Writhing, of course, to begin with," the mock turtle replied; " and then the differnt branches of arithmetic- ambition, distraction, uglification, and derision."

Ummmmm, Liquor Lady, did you know you deleted a couple of hundred posts from my club?

Liquor Lady

I did????

Allison Wonderland

Afraid so. Looked like you were maybe trying to go through the messages to get to the end or something, but you were clicking delete as you went and because you're a moderator, you actually can delete them.

ooooooo, sorry!! can you get them back??

Allison Wonderland

I don't think so. But since there isn't anything that can be done, not much point in worrying about it now. But for future reference, whatever you were doing, don't do that again! :-P hehe
