Mainly I'm thinking the capitol mall because its not a park, and it does have a lot of statues around that people may be tempted to "annoy" while looking there.
TX/green - We used to be able to type in one persons handle in a search engine for this Water Cooler site and it would pull up all of their listings. It was pretty helpful in the annoying days of Joe Medallion. We could view only those who we thought were helpful. There was a link right on the front page of the Cooler site.
Ah, the wonders of being able to arrange as much time off as you need... I'll definitely be using this luxury to my advantage this year!
... but not so soon! I wouldn't ever think of putting on my warm clothes for at least another couple days. I respect the eagerness of the hunters of today, but I assure those who listen that something foul would be up if it were found within the next three days, especially after last year's craziness. Use this time wisely to restore your history, geography, poli sci, basket weaving, and all other skills that apply to the year's hunt. *sharpens brain*
Right now I can't even begin to fathom even a gut feeling.
Clue 1 - My current key words: bold, infinitum, cruel, duel, toes. - thoughts: Nah.. Nothing beyond the obvious, yet.
I like the "duck logo" postulation... Although I must stress the probable protest from the city to the press about putting anything on the capitol grounds, at least within the last five years. I've picked through almost entirely negative thought from both the authorities and the Press when asking about the grounds... Just too political for the people to be muddling on the buildingfront, I suppose. Anyone decide on a distinguishing feature for Cooler Crew folk? Bandanas? Towels? Towelettes?

NOTE: The spellchecker is horrible. Any flaws in the text were ADDED when I used the utility. *hollers to the admins* I hate malfunctioning scripts.
They've eliminated a lot of features from this. There were some rumors that the searches were responsible for all the times the program went down, so they may have eliminated that too.
Personally, I think this medallino will be found in record time - the PP is a bit dissapointed about last year, but don't you think that makes us more determined than ever? Anyway, it would be nice and close for me if it was at the CM.
Stepp, SHEESH! We're not dueling with anybuddy! Unless ittiz our own minds - gods knows I am!
Well, you know... Ittiz not like St. Paul's got one o'those banks... What are they called? St. Louis has one...
And WHERE else is there gold in the city? Any udder buildings? Tho maybe the stone is gold coloured?
"Keep on your toes" REALLY bugs me every time I read that clue! It just doesn't fit with the feeling, flow o'the clue. I think it was needed. Or She wrote Clue One last and was very tired o'noodling! :D
Yeah. Me and Eags... And Terry and Ian, too? Did a test. Boy! Did doing a search ever kill trying to slog! You could NOT move! You'd be stuck until whomever was done going thru THOUSANDS o'posts looking for whatever they were looking for.
Welcome to both you and Matt. Nice to have you both aboard. Please introduce yourselves when out Digging.
About this WebX tool, I'm guessing that someone who runs this ordeal is related to the fifteen year-old who must have coded the technology for this forum and is doing them a favor... <-- Sarcasm, I know full well this is a somewhat larger script than that.
I just don't understand when a metropolis newspaper like the Press can't seem to get the idea of buying a license for UBB, EZboard, or heck, I know of 10 or 20 other TOTALLY free 'net BBS setups under the GPL that they could use... all of which could wipe their rears with the horrible problems WebX has brought about the population.
there is a statue at capital mall of leif erickson, the viking who discovered america. This really fit last years clues for awhile: viking depression and astute= statue so I spent ... no wasted much time there and let me tell you the security people did not like it a bit and tried to shoe me away. I guess they thought I might be tunneling in to the building
way too many posts to read all of, as of the duck logo anagram, reference to COMO maybe for some shooting of might ducks, but right now i like battlecreek and capitol mall
Matt, do be the dear I know you to be and drop it right now. This place is near and dear to many, many people - WARTS AND ALL. So, take it to Mom Press in a personal letter, otay?
So, here we go again. All of you trying to help me find my medallion againg this year. Well,I won't go out on any limb yet. These clues don't really narrow down until later on. I'd be willing to bet they put it in Pig's Eye park this year . . .
$50 to the first person to actually get to Pig's Eye by car. Be a good place to hide it though, esp. since this is the 50th anniversery of the Medallion Hunt in a City originally name Pig's Eye . . .
green - done. :) I just have to get my yearly complaint in. I apologize for the offense.
Time for sleep, I believe... I will definately be on the drive tomorrow night after the next clue hits the world for some prospecting... maybe more! So I'll chitchat with everyone throughout the day tomorrow. Cheers!
That's abouat as much insight as I can muster tonight Green. You know me, I don't put much stock in these first few clues. They are more helpfull when you have three or four others to define them against.
the battle creeks are seperated its a different battle creek in maplewood phaelen is the park where its in both cities, so its all good. i really like the idea bout upper and lower afton, AUGGIE, U go to Augsburg too?
I remember going through the "Battle Creek" battle a year or two ago. It shows up on some maps as Maplewood, but it IS in St. Paul, more importantly Ramsey County. Actually I think PART of battle creek is in maplewood and the other part is in St. Paul . . .
Mainly I'm thinking the capitol mall because its not a park, and it does have a lot of statues around that people may be tempted to "annoy" while looking there.
Leelabell, ittiz actually "duel" in the clue... Tho those two fractions do duke it out, don't they?
oops, yes, I spelled it wrong. And they do duke it out.

Beyond that I have no new ideas right now so I should head to bed too.
ditto...have a good night all.

Clue 1 - My current key words: bold, infinitum, cruel, duel, toes. - thoughts: Nah.. Nothing beyond the obvious, yet.
Clue 2 - key words: deploy, statues - thoughts: realistically, no.

My brain is going to explode and it only the second clue
keep on your toes I thought could refer to tennis or basketball or something like that.
I guess Ill get up early to dig at capital
toes to ice skating too
WOW, ClueM'! I NEVER knew that!
Yeah. Me and Eags... And Terry and Ian, too? Did a test. Boy! Did doing a search ever kill trying to slog! You could NOT move! You'd be stuck until whomever was done going thru THOUSANDS o'posts looking for whatever they were looking for.
Welcome to both you and Matt. Nice to have you both aboard. Please introduce yourselves when out Digging.
Thanks Wonderland. You're probably right. I would prefer faster refreshes if it means no search engines.
I also agree Matt. Spell check isn't the greatest. It is a nice feature when it works though since I can't spel veri goode.
'Nite, Allison! See you tomm... ah, later today!

Diggin' talk here.
Joe! And Joe!
So, here we go again. All of you trying to help me find my medallion againg this year. Well,I won't go out on any limb yet. These clues don't really narrow down until later on. I'd be willing to bet they put it in Pig's Eye park this year . . .
STAL!!!!!
pigs eye park, ewwww, how does one even get their other than by horseback,(while lowered from a helicopter)
Nice full mouse, Annette!
Oh! You wiped out such a nice Joe! All those 1's and 2's!!! :(
I love to dig dig dig
Let me tell you a few things about getting to Pig's Eye . . .
$50 to the first person to actually get to Pig's Eye by car. Be a good place to hide it though, esp. since this is the 50th anniversery of the Medallion Hunt in a City originally name Pig's Eye . . .
Hi, Birdie!
(sitting and waiting... For insights from Stal.)
green - done. :) I just have to get my yearly complaint in. I apologize for the offense.
Time for sleep, I believe... I will definately be on the drive tomorrow night after the next clue hits the world for some prospecting... maybe more! So I'll chitchat with everyone throughout the day tomorrow. Cheers!
SCDs, Matt! Post you later 2day!
JOE!!!!!!!!!
That's abouat as much insight as I can muster tonight Green. You know me, I don't put much stock in these first few clues. They are more helpfull when you have three or four others to define them against.
do you think duel - could mean dual - as in Upper and Lower Afton?
Very, very nice full mouse, Stal!
Yeah. And I put too ding-dang much (sigh). I just hate this Hunt because I love it so much.
I love that my header from two years ago still shows up when I log on this year . . .
Annette, I was thinking that earlier today... But I don't know if I can get too much more to go with it.
Tho, you've got dual "duals": Upper and Lower and "Battle" Creek...
But I can't think of a single statue there... Spent MANY an hour in BC in my very firstest Hunt!!! LOL!!!
Does the pioneer press consider west and south st. paul fair game?? Or would they be seperate entities?
What do you mean "full mouse"?
Suppose I ought to get some zzzzzzzzzz's. Nite
Unfortunately battle creek is in maplewood!!!
They're seperate "cities" actually. St. Paul = St. Paul.
night all, math comes pretty early in the morning.
Auggie, the vast majority o'Battle Creek is in the Battle Creek are o'St. Paul.
Only a very small portion o'BC is in Maplewood.
the battle creeks are seperated its a different battle creek in maplewood phaelen is the park where its in both cities, so its all good. i really like the idea bout upper and lower afton, AUGGIE, U go to Augsburg too?
I remember going through the "Battle Creek" battle a year or two ago. It shows up on some maps as Maplewood, but it IS in St. Paul, more importantly Ramsey County. Actually I think PART of battle creek is in maplewood and the other part is in St. Paul . . .
Medallion has been hidden there THREE times
Stal, instead o'full house... "Full mouse" as in one uses a mouse on a 'putter...
Auggie - I'm pretty sure that they go as far as Ramsey county but that's all. I believe that Annapolis is the south boarder
wait, never mind, part of the battlecreeks do connect, my bad
