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.
Come on, it's so obvious, it's in a St. Paul Park! OK, seriously, to me it sounds like the 9 and 5 are on a door of some building and then some representation of 4 is nearby. I think Duncan knows exactly where it is and he's just trying to fool us.
Woodduck, think about it, that story would never get out, would it (sarcasm is what it's called) Anyway, the early clues seem to give a little more than usual, to me anyway. I think we will get another telling clue tonight and then 3 or 4 nonsense clues before we get to the good stuff. Good Luck!
the chances of someone stumbling into it - well yea - it could happen - and well all of us could win the lottery so we wouldn't have to look for this damn madallion - but the truth is... the winter carnival doesn't have that kind of money to throw around - yea - we'll just throw out another 10k - are you on crack??
1st of all, the paper only gives 5, and the Heritage Society or whatever they call it, gives the other 5. They don't have an extra 5 laying around, and I'm sure the PP wouldn't just drop an extra 10 to make it last a week longer.
just paging through the map book and phone book........kind of mystified that it could even be linwood park.........nil in the first clue spelled backwards is lin.......and their phone # is 293-[954]3
woodduck how the hell would your friend find out about this if they wanted to keep it quiet. Oh, just ran into the kid on the street and he told your friend?
It's at Phalen this year, I just can feel it, and this is weird because every other year I just assume it is at como until we get a good clue, so Phalen, let's grab the shovels and go look for that non-metallic thing that is worth $10,000 to us....LET'S GO! VAMOS!
Tell ya the truth, I have no idea,Step. I just thought I would get everyone motivated so maybe we could get rid of Woodduck. But I seriously believe it is at Phalen, it is just a good place to put it this year. I don't think I will look and if I do, not for very long. Maybe I will drive around and look for numbers.However, more than likely I will wait for the next clue before I investigate any further.
"Numbers keep score and adorn the front door" = Adorn meems to make more attractive by adding ornament, color, etc.... to be beautiful to look at....furninsh with power or authority; of kings or emperors...
There was no harm intended in passing on a possible rumor. I thought it would be interesting to discuss the possibities. I didn't expect anybody to take the scenario as fact!
Woodduck, you did pass it along as fact. You said you had a reliable source walking in here like Agent Fox Mulder, is that how you spell it, who cares anyway because you are a quack and you were exspecting all of us to go "oh, really. Woodduck you are so cool and we worship you because you know all the inside information." NO WAY! so be quiet, because you were obviously a fraud when you came in here. Let's be serious and help each other to cash, of course, only one of us wins but working together increases your chances of winning, so don't be a loner, join in on the cooler, let's think hard, Phalen or what?
Let's not go crazy! Some people are considering things that are far less feasible than this scenario. We all present information to the group, and each person must assess the worth of the content. There is no reason to write so much negativity which has no worth at all! What I have said, has caused no harm and has mislead nobody. The best way to find the medallion is to gather all information.
Earth to the quack, come on. It was your attmept to be funny. I know your kind of people who stomp into some wonderful brainstorming event to display your bad try at humor. It was not funny and It did nothing for the well being of the cooler. You are a quack like the two words after your name. But if you wish for a truce, it is given, I am not mad. I just think you should be honest with us. We are trying hard to think through these clues and your BS was no help in fullfiling that highly determined goal.
Hey Let's write out are own clue 4 this could be fun. See how close it is to the real clue. But then again I am sure we wouldn't even be close oh well!
Woodduck' s right-- let's not get vicious on each other. On that note... do people get all violent when the medallion is found? Has anyone been there at the moment it is found?
I don't know if anyone has confirmed this yet, so I'll post it. This is a one time $10,000 prize.
I can't possibly read all the posts that have accumulated, but there seems to be a lot of garbage that doesn't belong here. A few miscreants were banned last year, and I would hate for that to happen to someone who is truly interested in the hunt.
I am off work for the remainder of the hunt. I hope to meet many of you during "the chase".
como also seems like a likely spot
Highland Park, without a doubt!
My lunch break is over, gotta go back to work. Back in about an hour!
why?

woodduck--where was it found?

Tony
Tony--you are right...how would you stumble onto it?
wooduck--I think your story is pretty much a lot of bull!!
the chances of someone stumbling into it - well yea - it could happen - and well all of us could win the lottery so we wouldn't have to look for this damn madallion - but the truth is... the winter carnival doesn't have that kind of money to throw around - yea - we'll just throw out another 10k - are you on crack??

jack--What you just said is exactly the truth.
Golfcourse and sliding hills, that leads us to Como? When was the last time it was found at Como?
Amy--it wqas found at como two years ago.
I'm with you on that one Step. Woodduck is full of it!!!
just paging through the map book and phone book........kind of mystified that it could even be linwood park.........nil in the first clue spelled backwards is lin.......and their phone # is 293-[954]3
people try to pull that every year.
david--where is linwood?
ST. clair ave
woodduck sounds like you are trying to start a new urban legend
woodduck how the hell would your friend find out about this if they wanted to keep it quiet. Oh, just ran into the kid on the street and he told your friend?
TONYFRO
I know where it's at. You think I don't!!
hey, woodduck ever consider that your reliable source from the pioneer press got it from a unreliable one, huh?
enlighten me, jim....where is it?
would they hide it in a piece of cheese???
Where would the finder claim the $10K?
It's at Phalen this year, I just can feel it, and this is weird because every other year I just assume it is at como until we get a good clue, so Phalen, let's grab the shovels and go look for that non-metallic thing that is worth $10,000 to us....LET'S GO! VAMOS!
woodduck--I just CALLED pioneer press and nobody has found it.
darryl--where at phalen are you gonna look?
Tell ya the truth, I have no idea,Step. I just thought I would get everyone motivated so maybe we could get rid of Woodduck. But I seriously believe it is at Phalen, it is just a good place to put it this year. I don't think I will look and if I do, not for very long.

Where are you going with that, Jack?
There was no harm intended in passing on a possible rumor. I thought it would be interesting to discuss the possibities. I didn't expect anybody to take the scenario as fact!

does everyone think phalen?
Is anyone still in here? Or is everyone on their to Phalen?
Let's not go crazy! Some people are considering things that are far less feasible than this scenario. We all present information to the group, and each person must assess the worth of the content.

It has been a long time for Phalen and so far the sketchy clues fit it and probably 10 other parks in the Saintly city.

BEE, where are you ??
Yeah, go to como. I hope you have fun looking because it is not there.
I agree with jimt!!
Three Big parks - Como, Phalen, and Highland are the front runners for the Bigger money this year.
But I wouldn't be supprised if the would put it in an obscure little park?
TOO SOON TO TELL!
Good point, Wampa.
Best Thing to do when it is found, is not to draw attention to yourself. A lot of tired people can turn into an angry mob.
Keep safe!
Well folks, I am leaving now. See you guys at Phalen.
