That's interesting. Wonder how much it'll go for. If it goes for over 10,000, it certainly ain't worth it. lol

However, if it does go over 10,000, I'm most certainly not turning the new one in. Would be worth more on ebay :)

My take on auctioning off the med is similar to prostitution; If you gotta buy it your a lame ass.:)


 

The only legit way to own the med is to find it!!!!

you know you want the old one. mr "i wouldn't turn it in if i found it"

Even though finding it mostly involves luck, it means nothing if you have to buy it.

I'm assuming this one would go for more.

That's assuming a lot... like whether or not I'll still be alive after the first screening

Yeah, I wouldn't sit in the front row if I were you.  Just in case bub!

;-)

Hey - You still haven't answered my question about your speech.  I wanna video tape you if you are going to do one.

We should pool our money and buy it for the Cooler Crew. Can you think of a better item to hide for the Mock Hunts? hehe

lol nice idea

heck, if we can get $500 together for a prize, maybe we should use that money to buy the medallion, and then that will be the prize and then whoever ends up with it will be able to say they found it.

Problem is that it'll get stolen by the villian.

yeah but then you run the risk a non cooler crew member finds it.

Unless Jake found it then we'd never see it again.

Unless Marley beat it our of him that is ;-)

Speaking of, where are those two?  Anybody hear from them lately?

Nice. Tim is good that way.  Love your new tag too!
  LOL

the obvious solution for aw's idea: hide a fake medallion, then we decide if the person that finds it is worthy of the real prize: the real medallion.

I can't find this auction crap anywhere.....

ohh...starts this upcoming sunday??

tim_the_hunter

The auction thing isn't official yet, I believe Carolyn was mistaken by telling Trent it was announced this past Sunday. So you won't be able to find it. Maybe she got confused and its happening this coming Sunday but you would think they would do it before the first screening.

Actually the timing sounds good on it. When they release the first clue, they'll most likely mention it then.

Scribe, we don't think that anyone looks bad in the film.  Occasionally, Cluemaster has a hair or two out of place, and Jake is Jake.

3M - Every night is different. I am guessing people will start showing up around 8 tonight.

We'll be the judges on that matter.

Hey, where's Marley & Artemis?

I knew I should have worn pants. Damn it

Did you ever get the reflection of the camera in my shades during any of my interviews.  Being a novice at videography, I tried to angle myself so it would reflect the frog and not the camera.  I have the strongest feeling that I'm gonna look like a fricken robot anyway.

Do you think that cocorosie who is posting in the Help, Questions and Suggestions for THX could be the other clown?  Shaggy I think he is called?  She said wicked nick got her hooked at the end of last year's hunt, but he wasn't wicked nick last year.  Maybe I'm all wet, but just wondering if anyone else thought it might be him.

not super new but new here! am excited to join the hunt and i've heard so so much good stuff about yous i'm very excited about my new winter carnival experience. i've done some hunting in the past and love problem solving but i'll have to admit i have never thrown the keys in the snow to see if i could then find them!

tim_the_hunter

I doubt it, I think that person just referred to him as Wicked Nick because thats what he wants to be called. Plus the new person had 2 whole posts without saying anything bad about Nick, so I doubt it is the other clown.

You will soon enough.  Welcome aboard Rosie

I can't think of anything since OT said "I'm all wet"  ;-P

I'll give it more thought on my drive home.  Blab later

You know her name, Diggin?  I figured I was probably wrong, but wondered why all the references to Nick.  Thanks.

One last time before the hunt starts - the fair grounds are privately owned. They are not owned by the U.
