Yeah, of course we're all here to talk about the medallion, but whats left to say, everyone has torn everything apart already and we wont know anything new til tonight, so were having fun in the mean time.

MGM...I've thought it was in Highland all along, but I think that is wishful thinking on my part. It is so much easier to go out at night when it is only a few blocks away.

what about the first letters in every line of clue 3...when unscrambled they spell city...silly idea, but it could happen.

If McDonough is where I think it is, its a bit west of the dividing line between east and west. I live just off Arlington so its pretty close to me, and its not much of a park, just kind of a big open space. I believe you're on the right track though.

Wheres McDonough? is it by them housing projects by Kmart on maryland?

heres a thought for Highland

circular thinking...what comes around goes around....the first medallion was found in Highland.

InspectorDigs - I also want it to be Highland since I live right by there too. You never know, we may get lucky!

Birdie so I suppose your stuck on palace, since you live by there

Wed, 01/24/2001 - 3:29 PM Permalink
Allison Wonderland

I feel pretty confident that its not in a park they have used before. I think they want to try and make it more difficult by using something that people are not familiar with.

I like the chances at Palace too.

Hello AW!....good to see you again...I had a different handle last year on here.

I was just at battle nothing really fit there though??

tim_the_hunter

park. I wont rule out the school, but I highly doubt it, and I dont even know of the rec center

Wed, 01/24/2001 - 3:34 PM Permalink
ElseaMae

Is hiding it in Highland TOO predictable? I'm not saying I'm just asking. First hunt and a big anniversary...it doesn't sit too well. But I can also see the headlines...

Crap, J, shut the hell up. If one can get upset because of what someone types about them, professional help is needed.

Hidden Falls sounds nice... But not as nice as Battle Creek, so far. I like Como, but agree with the fact that the events will discourage any involvement. Also, what about the Western park a few blocks off the Capitol? I wouldn't forget that...

Highland park is starting to come back into the running again, lots of references that can be found there. Unfortunately Highland is one of the parks that has a black mark next to it because everything and anything fits there. I'll need much more specific evidence to fit.

Tonight, I'm going to peruse Battle Creek, Phalen, and Hidden Falls, if time allows. Then we'll see what tonight's clue turns up. Maybe a little digging is in order. :)

I've verified that Kowalski's (near Grand & Hamline, open 24 hours) carries Red Bull and just about anything else you'd need to concoct some energy for some late night digging benders. :)

The rec center is further down Ruth from the school.

Is there a way to have this screen refresh to the last 5 or 10 posts??????

Wed, 01/24/2001 - 3:36 PM Permalink
Usual Suspect

what about the fact that one part of battle (East) is not in st. paul and the onther part is (west) making that the proper place

Who were you last year Inspector?

MATT, no! you shut the hell up hound dog! I havent dissed anyone in a while, im just sittin here talkin about clues, and maybe you need some professional help, maybe you need a professional ass kicking, for coming in here and yelling at people for no reason at all, what did I do to you in the first place?

Wed, 01/24/2001 - 3:38 PM Permalink
Allison Wonderland

I find the best way to refresh is to use the blue underlined post# of the most recent post. Then it gives you a new page with that as the first post and any susequent posts following.

J: You're annoying. And you're not doing it to me exclusively.

And I could use a good ass kicking, I can tell ya that for sure :)

I think we also had some other "ties" if I'm not mistaken?

Have you been out diggin yet or just deciphering?

Wed, 01/24/2001 - 3:40 PM Permalink

I agree (for once) with J, I havent fought with anyone in a while either. no can someone please tell me, "Where McDonough is"?

Seems like in previous years...early on in the clues they make referenec to "what" it's hidden in. Any ideas as of yet?
