Recent Clues: 
 


 

Clue #1 Congrats to the finder, to all a reminder 
To hunt hard from first to last clues 
Medallion I is history. Now a new mystery 
Begins -- strap on your hunting shoes 

To some its demented, for all unprecedented 
But hunters’ thirst must be quenched 
Tell sister and brother we’ve hidden another 
In a park where a body can be benched 

Our 2nd prize? Don’t laugh -- 10-thou cut in half 
So get out there even if it’s snowy 
And as a special bonus -- some might say an onus -- 
A meal with our own Clueless Joey 

Good hunting to you, let this be the first clue 
Think of a woodsy retreat 
It won’t be so hard if you channel the bard 
You’ll get warm and smell pretty sweet
Clue #2 If you\'re thinking big you\'re sure to dig 
Near flora with growing pain 
Winter or summer is never a bummer 
A menagerie of fun wild or tame
Clue #3 Success on the third clue will never do 
We had to stash a second 
Round you go if you seek to know 
Where swatters of orbs are beckoned
Clue #4: A walk in the park can be a lark 
If cell phones are left at home 
Heed the siren of your desirin\' 
And do not revolt against this poem
Clue #5 Over hill and dale hit the trail 
With a handy locating device 
Fulfill your wishes like loaves and fishes 
And put your victory on ice
Clue #6 A famous singer and a diamond dinger 
Might put you oh so close to the spot 
With the whites of your eyes you should look for the prize 
Within this convenient plot
Clue #7 Don\'t turn up your noses at the city of roses 
The home of the park that you seek 
It\'s just north of town so come on down 
Our hunt is not for the meek
Clue #8 Don\'t go mental just head for Central 
Lexington Avenue will show you the way 
Your spirits won\'t sag when you see the big flag 
Into the trees you want to stray

If the "plot" is a movie...and the singer were "Crosby" perhaps the plot would be the baseball "smash" The Bingo Long Traveling All-Stars & Motor Kings.....(just to keep some of you at Crosby)

But if you wait for them to tell you the name of the park, then everyone else knows the name of the park too and you're just one of several hundred people hoping to get lucky. So you can't really wait for the clues to spell it out for you because then they spell it out for everyone. The trick of the hunt is to read the clues and then make your best guess. And then you act on that guess, without knowing if you're really right, in the hope that your hunch will prevail and carry you to victory while others failed to get to the right place for whatever reason.

I saw him at Central yesterday. He was out there with a bunch of other past finders.

Terry

Allison - We've been out hunting. Several times as a matter of fact. I'm just ready to know if we've been in the right one or not.
Mon, 01/29/2007 - 7:54 PM Permalink
Allison Wonderland

I'm thinking tonight's clue has to spell out the park for us. If it's in Central, people will need a couple of days to search throught it. If they don't name the park, then maybe it's somewhere that can be found more easily. Still, I think the fact that they have named all the streets around Central is their way of saying, "It's at Central, and it's going to be hard to find, so better get started!"

agree whole heartly :smile: :cool:

If it's in a big park - no matter which one - it's going to take some time, most likely, to find it.

I'm thinking for all the good noodling that has been done this year, someone is in the right park.

I seem to have gotten quite the headache. I'll probably be in bed not long after the clue comes out.

45 minutes before clue time.

I don't know what to expect - glee or frustration - but at least we'll be to the next stage of this hunt.

I guess that will end a lot of debate. Now to debate where in Central Park exactly.
Mon, 01/29/2007 - 9:16 PM Permalink
Terry

No there certainly is not.

Not the first time nor will it be the last - we were in the wrong park. At least this gives us a chance to right our wrongs.
