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.
I've been bouncing back and forth between this one and the old board. It seems as though the old board is getting more discussion than this one. Why is it that no one is discussing this first clue?
first clue, i like the part about "wrong scene" energy park movie studios, by como and newell. SPNN and METRO cable access studios downtown by mears. 23 by the border, kstp on universty. what else do people think?
You know what, Wright Winger. I think nobody wants to talk about clues tonight. I've tried and nobody seems to answer me back. I'm calling it a night and maybe someone will be here who will actually be talking. Good night, Wright Winger!
Hi! A lot of the "regulars" were down at McGoverns for the pre-hunt party and haven't gotten online. There are stories to tell already. The first clue is always just generic. Really doesn't say anything other than it's in a park and it will not be on a golf course. Good luck everyone. THE HUNT IS ON!!
but what about it saying it is a by a course, and they need to tell people to stay off it. its one or the other. i still think theirs something with the studios. and the biggest in the city is in energy park.
We had a good time at Pat Mc Governs with all the coolers that showed. Waited patiently for the 1st clue to come. Couldn't believe it came so early but we appreciated all the efforts it took to get it to us.
Hi Bill! Bill, I'm not aware of anyone chatting live, but its possible they are. If you go back to the login page, you have a choice of live chat and message board - you could give it a whirl.
I like to use the message boards cuz the continuity of the discussion is kept, and people can read all the posts. On live chat, once everyone is gone, the discussion disappears. If someone made a good point, or gave some valuable information, you can't go back and look for that information. If you weren't there at the time, you lose out.
A lot of us jump over to the Cooler called "Shoot the Breeze" if we're going to talk about stuff not directly related to the hunt. Check in there if you're interested in general chat, between times.
Hi vacman! I don't know the odds. I think its dependent on how many people are out there looking for it. I'm willing to bet that the odds are much, much better than the lottery!
As, usual... I'm the bock end o'the horse!!! Had to slog quite a few posts!!!
WE'RE OFF AND RUNNING!!!
MJ, you did superb!!! Sorry for the doubt, but as Eags said, we've hunted here bee4 and found many a screwy thing that didn't pan out. And MomPlanet would never NEVER post a clue bee4 ittiz time.
I'm agreeing with the thought that somebuddy accidentily goofed and posted the clue too early. It WAS there - the URL proves it - and then it was gone. Me thinks sumbuddy's gonna bee in a world o'hurt when The Powers That Bee read the discomboomalation the *little* error caused!!!
Well! It was the rite Clue, and those that stood by what they saw are validated. Ittiz time to move on!!!
Park, St. Paul, with a golf course... Am drawing maps, picking over The Net... I think *I* know where ittiz gonna bee!!! Rite where my intuition told me bock in December it would bee!!!
Guess we'll know more tomorrow... Damn, but I HATE the 24 hours between clues!!! DRIVES ME NUTZ!!!
Will bee up all nite crusing The Net, noodling... Will sleep some in the early a.m., then head out to reconointer!!!
Any pointers on telling my employer I'm sick for the next two weeks???
MJ, again, thanks fur the help!!! What happened izz Mom's cell phone DIED! You should have seen us calling all over - even tried to get in touch with DDY at work - to find somebody to get on and see if the clue was there. Originally got a hold o'SNotV's son, and he said it wasn't THERE!!! We were going CRAZY!!!
Glad we got it figured out once we got on when we got home!!
Pats, you are the dearest love. You've a member o'this fam whether you want to bee or not! We're not letting you go!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ALL THE HARD WORK AND NOODLING FROM MISERY!!! WE LOVE YOU!!!
It was right. The clue is up.
MJ - I still get VM.
All I get is last years crap.
Jim-TFT: Make sure you bookmark the location.
Mee too Pats. I left a voice mail! <sigh> Well at least they'll all slog, and know I wasn't farting around. Wanna retire to the STB board?
Try again, Jim-TFT. Click on "Get clued" banner on the front page of the Pioneer Press. It takes you directly to the clue.
Jim TFT, click on the banner above, which will bring you to the front page of the paper. Then click on the Treasure Hunt Button that has a snow flake!
So, we're not going to discuss the clue tonight?
Got It and I did make a bookmark. Jim-the-Freight-Train is pulling out of this station. Good Night All.

Axel, what are you testing?
Me and the Medallion Mobile

There has to be a golf course close by. That's the earlier discussion.
Me and the Medallion Mobile
wider is better.
so what do people think about the golf course/ studio stuff
You know what, Wright Winger. I think nobody wants to talk about clues tonight. I've tried and nobody seems to answer me back. I'm calling it a night and maybe someone will be here who will actually be talking. Good night, Wright Winger!

Hello Everyone!
Just back from Patrick McGovern's! Thanks for the clue work MJ and Pats!!!!
Sorry Axel, it wasn't you we didn't believe, we were having trouble believing Mom Planet put it up so early.
It was great talking to Pats all the way from MO!!!!!
And so many people were there!!!!!
Ian - It was great seeing you and the family again!
Reid - We're so happy you made it!!!! Great seeing you again too.
For the families we met that just started digging a couple years ago, it was fantastic meeting you! Can hardly wait for you all to be posting here.
Thank goodness for cell phones!!!!!
Hello Cooler Hunters
We had a good time at Pat Mc Governs with all the coolers that showed. Waited patiently for the 1st clue to come. Couldn't believe it came so early but we appreciated all the efforts it took to get it to us.
Hey Inks, still up, or are you SNOOZING?
I'm just curious. Is there a chat room where people are talking about the treasure hunt!! Anyone know where that's happening? Good Hunting Everyone!!!
does anyone know the odds of finding the coin

Pretty simple, if you ask me... And I'm the Queen o'reading too much into a clue... Rite, Greg? <g> LOL!
St. Paul Park, with/near/on a golf course.
And if you read more than that into it, "follow this advice and you won't be caught wasting your time at the wrong place," you're way OFF COURSE.
My caps there at the end...
So FUN to see what everbuddy comes up with!!!
Gotta love it!!! The Med Hunt!
See you Diggers in the Field!!! May the BEST Digger win!!!
(And a "Joe!" to boot! Lucky me!)
