I guess we have to have some sort of sense of humor to keep doing this every night and day. We are using our mind way to much to not laugh about it. It's something I don't use every day anyways.lol
I need to start diggin' before I go back to school, and these clues aren't allowing me to do that. This crazy Minnesotan skipped a trip to Texas for this hunt. Be this known...When the identity of the park is finally made clear, I'll be shovelin' with the pace of an ace. I have also considered alternative solutions to movin' the snow. Plowing it, wow-ing it, sifting it, de-drifting it, churning it, burning it, boiling it, or outright foiling it are all fine options.
Listen you guys #3 tells us it is northern part of stpaul and when your in the correct park youll see the tower or two. #4 shelter and cooking #5 sunny and fair and whatever the med is in #6 means nothing Tell me what is the park that is in the far north of stpaul. I'm been lurking from day one
I am reading through these clues and I find that it says in clue #3 that a tower or two should come into view well it doesn't say it is or will come into view it just says should.
Here's the kicker...Shortly before this hunt started, the medallion hunt at our school had just ended. They really screwed me on that one. I though for sure it was in the woods by the cross-country ski path and water tower. But alas, it was at the base of the warrior statue right in the middle of campus. They had me diggin' a 40x40 foot trench in the middle of the woods for lack of good clue writing. Perhaps this is why I now have a bias against "tracks" and Highland's water "towers" and an affinity for the anagram statue and the word hunt. Perhaps this is why I'm getting burnt out...back-to-back foul smelling hunts with cloudy minded clue-writers.
what type of towers are we exactly looking for anyways? water- doubt it Radio tower? a building that towers, a tree a building with the name tower. It doesn't really give us much to go on there in my opinion
They aren't being direct in any of these clues as to what park or which parks it could be in. I think that it must be a fairly small one other wise they would of said something by now
WHEN U R AT NEWELL..WHICH IS JUST ON 'FAIRVEIW' OFF PEIRCE BUTLER THERE ARE TWO TOWERS...BUT TO THE WEST.. AND A RAILROAD SWITCH YARD TO THE NORTH..THE FAIR GROUNDS ARE TO THE NORTH I STILL FEEL ITS NEWELL AT HIS POINT BUT TO COLD TO GO OUT)
something for us to figure a bigger park anyways. A smaller park makes it easier to find but, harder clues that maybe add to every other park but, if you look at things differently then you can figure how it all fits in with the smaller ones too? Just a thought
#6 is alluding to a track and something else don't know what. A friend of mine used to work in the CIA and is up here from Florida for a couple weeks, he used to dig when he lived in stpaul 20 years ago, this guy is a general into didactics. He'll tune in soon.
I've been exploring that option. What if it's in a small park which is located very close to a larger, well-known park? That would explain their refusal to release the identity of the park, but the clues could still match the larger park to a large degree.
yeah
I think they have one of these smart 12 year olds that go to college write these things
snow, back from where?
What was clue 5 I don't remember at this point.
I think the opposite of foul and cloudy is Fair. A reference to Fairview or the State Fair. Both in close proximity to Newell.
clue 5 was one of those makes no sense at all lets laugh at these idiots that are staying up all night trying to figure this out crap
where it says lesson and apply maybe they are referring to a school or library?
LOL Kiwi....u r on th e right track!
Or a college or University? (hehe)
Hamline?
Alison....my opinion:
Foul=Fair but cloudy is not = view. You can have a "fair" view even on a cloudy day.
hmmmm....
I guess we have to have some sort of sense of humor to keep doing this every night and day. We are using our mind way to much to not laugh about it. It's something I don't use every day anyways.lol
One part I don't understand is the Hunter and Attack theory they are using
The opposite of cloudy is also fair. Fair is the word, from which we derive Fairview.
Birdie hamline is just down the road from newell
I just hit that point where I have realized I'm still awake and I relly shouldn't be, so off to bed. Can go to 24 hour mode starting tomorrow.
Could foul be the Ramsey County Compost site on Pierce Butler?

Me too, sorry to interrupt
Yeah tell me about it
That's okay no one else is talking
I think there is something spelled out in these clues somewhere that says what we need maybe that's what they mean by a well trained eye
Phalen would be the farthest north.
I agree, I believe that maybe a person with a well-trained eye will see that something is spelled or an anagram is present somewhere
no..not really..any thoughts on the park? brr it's damn cold outside
I am reading through these clues and I find that it says in clue #3 that a tower or two should come into view well it doesn't say it is or will come into view it just says should.
I spose depending on where you are you might see one or two but, no guarentees on that.

or we just stink at figuring these things out to
True that.

Yes, I'm with you on that one.

who's all still here and pondering this medallion deal?
Me!

I feel like I am talking to myself
