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.

coaster32...no I am not friends with Rock. I have been comic relief in here for the past couple of days...everyone else in here is boring the hell out of
me so I am trying to have some fun...I am not trying to annoy anyone like Rock is doing...in fact last night I told him to meet me at Newell so I could
If the clues made me feel it was one park in particular I would say something about it...I just don't think these have been very helpfull clues. I had a theory last night
that the medallion is not even hidden yet...they don't want to lose all of the publicity this is generating yet so they will hide it tonite or tommorrow...someone will look
like they are a medallion hunter and they will actually be hiding it! Think about it....
damn it now i got to add conway heights to my list of parks. lets see we also got highland, marriam, newell, battle creek and linwood. god, these clues suck when
these clues do suck and so does walking through all of this frozen snow on the ground. The people at treasure hunt central told me last year that they hide the
medallion as soon as we get the first snow, but I think they were giving me the run a round. Has anyone thought about looking at the first letters of the clues to see is
they spell something like they did that one year????
The medallion has been hidden. This happens every year. People get frustrated by the ambiguity and think it hasn't been hidden. Think about it, they could have
hidden it weeks ago and now it is under a foot of snow.
So far Merriam is the only park that fits ALL the clues. I just hope tonights clue pinpionts it a little better.
I have not yet checked the website at 11:30. Does it slow down? Would I be better off having my wife pick up the paper downtown and call me on my cell phone,
or just have her call me from home as soon as it is posted?
Well coasters32, you can shorten your list if you agree with me on this one point. If "trees is a line" can be translated to WOOD ROW, the only name you can really
get from that is Wilson, and the only park on Wilson is Conway. If you have a different interpretation then make sure you bundle up!
Is anyone going to go see Monster Magnet, Hole and Marilyn Manson!!! I think it will be at the Target Center...think of clue number 1 that says "Marilyn Manson
There's no reason to think they haven't hidden it yet. Even when the clues are at their most specific, they still leave around have an acre to search for something that is
six inches big if we're lucky (I'm talking about the container). The chances of someone finding it early are very slim because there's so much dumb luck involved in
just stumbling across the hiding site. I don't think they're worried, but they may have suggested to the Cluemaster to make the clues as vague as possible.

kick him in the nuts.
has anyone called the hotline to see if it has been found?
Columbus...you can kiss my white a**
frustrated- good ideas but youre thinking to hard, but then agin you could be right!!!!!!!!!!
Conway Heights Park on the east side. It is between (WOOD ROW) Wilson and (away from the action?) Pacific, and Ruth and Mcknight.
scott- its still out there
Someone said it was found earlier, but i haven't heard for sure
muggs, merriam fits clue 6, I'm not that familiar with the park I'm thinking of trying it.

ding dong good idea becuse these clues suck and knowbody can figure them out. so we need some thing do do in here!
Either that or its buried under a big "W".
Barton are you out there
Just Conway Park...no heights involved.
columbs- you're thoughts
Cold Feet, I think it might be worth a try....at least the weather is cooperating...makes the hunt easier....especially when i'm on my third park

wow, you are so smart, gee that's never been thought of before. IT'S PROBABLY ONLY DONE EVERY YEAR!!
I GOT IT...THE MEDALLION IS IN THE VATICAN!!! Think of the clue that says "$10000 could buy a lot of dope, so why not frisk the Pope, if you want the
whole shamatican, cop a feel in the vatican!"
damn it now i got to add conway heights to my list of parks. lets see we also got highland, marriam, newell, battle creek and linwood. god, these clues suck when
you can't narrow it down to less then 6 parks

do do do do???????
I think you may be right. My map said Conway Heights, but at the park itself I think it did just said Conway.
scott- nothing is spelled out
Ghetto bob are you refering to my theory that the medallion is not hidden yet??? Because it isn't!
yeah the are s.a.i.n.t.f.a......
ding dong- why wouldnt it be hidden
Scott Jones.....Saints Fans!
hey barb i think the added money has brought out a lot of new comers thats why.

You know how everyone was talking about iconoclast as being the devil? Did anyone ever mention Vulcanis Rex (or however you spell his name)?
it's already hidden.
gots to go eveybody, see you at 11:30
okay, I'll get gutsy.
My idea is that "a man of fame" who offers a name, and ...found in "many a tome" could be anagrams.
When I cross those two, the common letters are aaomemn, and the one I like most so far is "manomea".
Anything to anybody? I'm house-bound right now, or I'd be out there diggin.
Respond privately if you like, <asmando@writeme.com>
ding dong actaully Packers fan!! but lets not start a whole war of Packers vickings right now
Spencer Dorn....the pioneer press and the winter carnival are getting a ton of publicity because of the $10000 reward for finding the medallion...they
would lose a lot more than $10000 if the medallion was found too early.

The first time I went hunting for the medallion was in 85', if anyone calls me a new comer to this we are gonna' throw em' down!
Allison, I'll go along with Woodrow Wilson, but what about 9,5,4?
