the clue of 'one proper place' like the one and only in reference to the big ice Castle (palace) they had there. For some reason I link an English meaning to the word proper
the unfortunate thing is that it doesn't say "one proper place" it says "East and west are part of our test Though only one is the proper place" Which leads me to believe its certainly not downtown...
The castle was built on a little island(circular thinking) bridged(link) to the rest of Phalen. Phalen is associated with EAST just guessing im not sure of anything these are just thoughts that pop into my little mind
The one thing that I don't like about Phalen is that they close the road gates to the park at 10 or 11, and there's not an easy way in. I hung out there as a teen. So I know it like the back of my hand.
#1 This park has been the place for many gold medals, and is within the city limits of St. Paul. Many duels or contests have taken place in this park (and continue to), as well as many dualities concern it - only one of which was that you had to "keep on your toes."
#2 Stay off private ground and don't mess with any statues or golf courses.
#3 Circular thinking/linking refers to bicyles. This is part of one of the dualities.
#4 East and west is another duality of the park, but which is correct? (*I* know!) Playing referrs to playing fields in the park.
#5 Could be one o'two guys... I'm going with the lesser talked about. And I really think they meant "mettle" and not "metal."
So far, everything fits. However, everything fit last year until that 7th Clue!!!
Alan, I think so. When you get a car you have to squeel the tires out of the parking lots. What's funny is when someone pops the clutch and kills the car!!!!
#1 Is a void clue because it was created for the sole purpose of putting the word Goodluck on the side of it
#2 Is void because its just telling us to stay off of private property,golf courses and statues
#3 Is a tire swing (or swings) just out of view 'circular+linking' and look for possible banks around it, in sight or a reference too - the bank statement could just be refering to the medallion iself though too..
#4 I think this is saying stay away from downtown, and that you should dig in a pile of leaves, under snow for the buried treasure
#5 Look for a name of a man in the immediate area. Its inside of a Dove Soap Box
Jake, what if The Doofy Clue Writer(s) are being bold this year???? And not going to refer to water? You could be sitting around this time next year just waiting for a water clue when, even tho you're surrounded by water up to your nose, The Doofy Clue Writer(s) choose NOT to use it.
Ittiz their game, not ours. We gotta go with what's given us.
And the fat lady ain't sung yet either. There's still time for water clues.
evrything so far leads to mlk.....circular thinking, now everyone thought I was crazy but....if you write "thinking" in a circle, you could read it as think king. The man of steel is superman or clark KENT (kent st.).....a man with plenty of mettle, or courage would be mlk...so all you have to do is find a Dove soap box or a Dove ice cream bar box by a picture of a bird...probably also a Dove.
My take on this statement: In the clues they are trying to rhyme... so if there are two words that ryhme, one of the words are null and void. I choose fettle to be null and void leaving us with the word "mettle"
"A man of steel cannot be real but another has plenty of mettle. Look for his name around our deal and you'll be in very fine fettle"
Well Coolers, I've gotta be a party pooper and go to bed. I've got to get up early and spoil my "playing hookie from work cause it's his birthday" hubby, and make him a nice breakfast. Yes, she can dig for treasure and cook too!!! Imagine that.
Cluemaster- You got IM or no?
Has anyone have any other suggestions beside my tire swing thoughts on this statement?
Circular thinking can be one way of * linking To the treasure that lies out of view.
the clue of 'one proper place' like the one and only in reference to the big ice Castle (palace) they had there. For some reason I link an English meaning to the word proper
my IM is kiki651, you can just pass me those thoughts to ;) hehehe
J - Apparently not - I thought you meant your second line of info under your name. What do I do?
Ok, I can see that, so how does that phrase apply to BC
Kiki - The small parking lot at Marydale is a circle
give me your e- mail and then delete it right away...I will e-mail you the joke
the unfortunate thing is that it doesn't say "one proper place" it says "East and west are part of our test Though only one is the proper place" Which leads me to believe its certainly not downtown...
Well kids just got back from MLK rec center and not a whole lot there!!!
It sure is

Does every east side kid hang out there as a teen?
now with #5 , I like mcKNIGHT ave. thats by BCP
I think there was some big hoopla surrounding Phalen and the medallion hunt....because some of the park is not in St.Paul. I vote its not there
C'Master... Yup on the cell phone.
Again:
My Take On The Clues:
#1 This park has been the place for many gold medals, and is within the city limits of St. Paul. Many duels or contests have taken place in this park (and continue to), as well as many dualities concern it - only one of which was that you had to "keep on your toes."

Auggie - is there a statue or bust of MLK there?
also....
- is the playground in the SOUTHWEST corner of the park?
Alan, I think so. When you get a car you have to squeel the tires out of the parking lots. What's funny is when someone pops the clutch and kills the car!!!!
The area right across from the driving range (steer clear) there is no gate there.
Green, what about whats NOT in any of these clues???
No vipe, no bust or statue...playgroung on northwest corner
You must squeel the tires and smoke cigarettes, and in a certain era you must play hacky sack
Hell I dont know nothing I'm aimlessly throwing thoughts out there. When they come into my mind I send them here
Brew, yes there is. It's off of 61. There are only 2 ways into that park by car and they both get closed by gates.
Kiki, I used to work for the city of Maplewood, and most of the park is in St.Paul, anyplace where they could hide it is 90 % in St. Paul.
My take Green:
#1 Is a void clue because it was created for the sole purpose of putting the word Goodluck on the side of it
#2 Is void because its just telling us to stay off of private property,golf courses and statues
#3 Is a tire swing (or swings) just out of view 'circular+linking' and look for possible banks around it, in sight or a reference too - the bank statement could just be refering to the medallion iself though too..
#4 I think this is saying stay away from downtown, and that you should dig in a pile of leaves, under snow for the buried treasure
#5 Look for a name of a man in the immediate area. Its inside of a Dove Soap Box
I like your ideas though too Green
Jake, what if The Doofy Clue Writer(s) are being bold this year???? And not going to refer to water? You could be sitting around this time next year just waiting for a water clue when, even tho you're surrounded by water up to your nose, The Doofy Clue Writer(s) choose NOT to use it.

And the fat lady ain't sung yet either. There's still time for water clues.
Alan, Would I age myself if I said I once owned a hacky sack.
perhaps, they have come and gone in a big way twice
Thanks, Kiki!
I've a park all this applies to. I'm not looking for a name, I'm omitting it.
Alan, just curious, are you a teen, 20 something, 30 something etc.?
24
Brew, how bout you?
Brew, ya still talking to me after the gate thing?
So Alan, ya live on the east side? I grew up in Maplewood, and now like in No. St. Paul.
evrything so far leads to mlk.....circular thinking, now everyone thought I was crazy but....if you write "thinking" in a circle, you could read it as think king. The man of steel is superman or clark KENT (kent st.).....a man with plenty of mettle, or courage would be mlk...so all you have to do is find a Dove soap box or a Dove ice cream bar box by a picture of a bird...probably also a Dove.
correction, live in No. St. Paul

"A man of steel cannot be real but another has plenty of mettle. Look for his name around our deal and you'll be in very fine fettle"
I live on the north side, but went to Harding
Auggie, I like that!
Harding????????? I went to Hill Murray
auggie auggie auggie!
Oye Oye Oye!
Brew, did ya leave me???
Oh, my GODS! I just realized that the guy I've picked to Bee my answer to who the real guy is/was...
Has a "dual" (2) in his history!
I can't make up my mind if this is a coincidence, or not...
Now I'm second guessing myself. Nope, not gonna do that. Gonna stick with my first choice.
How much longer 'til the next Clue????????
Kiki isn't that what the energizer guy used to say!
Well Coolers, I've gotta be a party pooper and go to bed. I've got to get up early and spoil my "playing hookie from work cause it's his birthday" hubby, and make him a nice breakfast. Yes, she can dig for treasure and cook too!!! Imagine that.
Nite All. Talk to ya tomorrow.
Auggie....hehehe....ever been to Uncle Chunk?
have a toilet named uncle chunk....if there is a real uncle chunk place, nope i have never been there
What?!? No one going to say goodnight to me and wish me sweet treasure hunting dreams? I'm sooooo hurt.
