GOLDEN PLEASE REPOND TO MY EMAIL AND MOSS THAT IS NOT EVEN HALF THE CLUES TO THE PARK EVERYTHING MAKES
PERFECT SENSE FOR NEWELL.
Moss - 05:12pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8004 of 22138)
mR Rock. I've examined " Monkey Crap " and I came up with Monkey Parc....do you think it is Como Park?
Woodduck - 05:13pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8005 of 22138)
Quack! Quack!
If I don't find it tonight, I'd be up for digging tommorow. Do you think that you could call me with the clue at 11:30?
Barton Fink - 05:14pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8006 of 22138)
and like i have said before its just one mans take on the clues... nothing is set in stone yet... i wish there was a chair-o-key type clue that would just lead us all to a
park... the only other park i'm considering now is newell although it is really dug up...
The Rock - 05:14pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8007 of 22138)
iconoclast=someone who goes against religious beliefs. The perfect person for the spot is THE DEVIL hense DEVILS DEN in newell Park
Moss - 05:15pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8008 of 22138)
balony and cheese mR. ROCK YOU WERE PROBABLY SENT BY THE PIONEER PRESS TO SCREW US ALL UP
Moss - 05:16pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8009 of 22138)

Golden Boy - 05:17pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8010 of 22138)
Rupert - If you decide to the Terms & Conditions of the "4" Club - which includes a face-to face meeting and none of this cyber chatter, and a basic agreement -
then I, and others in the "4" club would gladly show you the "4" in person. Limited membership though. Of course I have to clear it with the other members,
Woodduck, Birdie, etc.
Everyone else in the club has seen it independently - once you see it you say - WOW, MAN - THAT ISSSSSSSS COOl.
Dave Stone - 05:17pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8011 of 22138)
Whoah, for a moment Moss, I thought maybe you found the CAPS LOCK key!
The Rock - 05:17pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8012 of 22138)
PP is very smart to put that in. It is very hard to see devils den BUT is easy to get to if u find the right spot Newell is bigger than everyone thinks!!! Just remember
the clue #4 "but theres VALUE as WELL as IN the NEW. Simply said!!
Moss - 05:17pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8013 of 22138)

Rock.... if you are worshiping the devil by goin to the devil's den you wouldnt be an iconoclast since you arent tearing down an icon.. you would be supporting an
icon
Woodduck - 05:18pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8015 of 22138)
Quack! Quack!
Barton Fink: I thought #4 "value as well in the new" was the same idea as Chair-o-Key
Brock Landers - 05:18pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8016 of 22138)
what is everbody's strongest theories on the numbers (9,5, "somewhere" a four) and where are they leading everybody??
Moss - 05:18pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8017 of 22138)
YOU BET I FOUND THE CAPS LOCK!!!!!

ya chill out Moss.
Barton Fink - 05:19pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8019 of 22138)
on the other hand the Highlanders (not the movie/tv ones) were very famous iconoclasts... so if you are willing to dig in highland you are a highlander...!!
Moss - 05:19pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8020 of 22138)
I JUST FOUND THE CAPS LOCK TODAY
The Rock - 05:20pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8021 of 22138)
Barton you would be worshiping an icon but just remember you would be putting down the greatest icon of all time "GOD"
Rushmore - 05:20pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8022 of 22138)
Barton, I have been with you on Highland the entire time, until last nights clue. How do figure that it ties into Highland.
Golden Boy - 05:20pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8023 of 22138)
Woodduck - I'll call you with #7. E-mail me you're cell phone #.

woodduck... thats way tooooo easy... just putting the first word behind the second isnt the same as chair o key.... to come up with chair you had to figure out what
the head of a committee was... and unlock the door meant key... plus it was a later clue... why would they give us the name of a rather SMALL park on clue #4 and
give us 8 clues that essentially would have to lead to where in the SMALL park it is...??? to win $10k you're gonna have to think really HARD

yeah hey i just woke up havent gone out in 2 days
The Rock - 05:25pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8033 of 22138)
Ummmmm just to let all of you know that i looked to see how exactly big newell is and it said it was 978 acres. That is quite a bit of feet to cover.
christopher campbell - 05:25pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8034 of 22138)
See you at B.C. tonight Dave
Cammando WAyne - 05:26pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8035 of 22138)
Ok whos on first
Golden Boy - 05:27pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8036 of 22138)
Barton - you and I traded thoughts a few days ago. Let me ask you this - what is you're take on 9-5--4 at HP. My guess is that your explanation is a reach. If you
aren't absolutely sure - then you aint diggin in the right place.
9-5----4 is the key to this whole thing. It's not a "which park is it clue" it's a "vicinity" clue.
9-5----4. Get this right, the rest is easy.
Cammando WAyne - 05:28pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8037 of 22138)
I herd that its frozen in Pig snot
The Rock - 05:30pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8038 of 22138)
This devils den i keep refering to is not small but not big either. I just went there to scope out the place and i came to a sign that said devils den. a very small sign if ya
ask me. So i went through bushes and trees everywhere until i came to this place that hasnt even been touched. This place is very hard to see from the main part of
the park so you have to look hard to see it. i think i just got lucky ill be there after i can relate the #7 to newell. oh and might i add that i have been unscrambling the
letters of all the clues and so farr it spells out SAINTS. Which refers to midway stadium where the saints play. All the baseball stuff people are refering to could be
that. The 9 4 5 but still thinks it means the ks95 94.5 thing.

thought the 4+shout="fore" meanin there IS a golf course at the park... A 9 is a nine hole course adjacaent to highland... and A 5 is the only one i have
weak explanations for... i have yet to look at pars for the Holes.. maybe the 9th hole is par 5? maybe highway 5 and 51 adorn the front door?
Brock Landers - 05:32pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8040 of 22138)
Fever has begun, you seem on the right track, what would be your vicinity? On your way home= somewhere on the baseline for baseball?
Barton Fink - 05:36pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8041 of 22138)
the first letters of the clues are as follows... TAFNSIA... you can make SAINT fron those with an F and an A to build a second word upon... the only thing i can get
from the 2nd word would be FRANCIS... so we need these from here on out... RNCIS... 5 letters with 6 clues left... i looked up 4 saint francis'es in the encyc. and
none of them have anything to do with any park names or Saint Paul... one was a prominent GOLFER though... jokin...
Barton Fink - 05:37pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8042 of 22138)
well i'm off for a while... hope #7 makes sense...
Cammando WAyne - 05:38pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8043 of 22138)
I herd that they taped it to wellstones bald spot
The Rock - 05:38pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8044 of 22138)
no no its saints fa im guessing it could be fan which would then make it midway stadium which is very easy to see from devils den
Brock Landers - 05:39pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8045 of 22138)
What was Clue # 7 four years ago?? Where could I find out. I'll look it up and get back to you all.

I think you're trying to hard with tome. However, its seems to be a significant word. So does home and smart and discerning, goal, and iconoclast

what about the golf course clue is there one at battle creek
rupert - 06:07pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8070 of 22138)
explain the coke factory and the 954 clue for me please
Main_Dawg - 06:08pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8071 of 22138)
Do any of you think that it could be hidden in Como Park as to the clue with the stayng away from the slide & the numbers 9, 5, & somewhere 4..that COULD
mean the coke factory near Como..
ChiefSmoke - 06:08pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8072 of 22138)
if you add up all the digits in the Highland HS fone number and divide by seven you get 5; one of the 954 combo.,....
MMC - 06:09pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8073 of 22138)
what coke factory?
ChiefSmoke - 06:09pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8074 of 22138)
what about the slide? in WHAT CLUE?
Main_Dawg - 06:09pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8075 of 22138)
Well my bud just called & said there's a coke factory near Como where it has something to do with those numbers..
ChiefSmoke - 06:09pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8076 of 22138)
I didn't see that....what coke factory?
denephew - 06:10pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8077 of 22138)
This message is for The Rock: an iconoclast is not someone who is against religion. It is someone who is against the use of religious images. It goes back to the
Byzantine Empire (8th century). They decreed that all religious images (i.e. images that depicted Christ as a human being) should be destroyed. (because they were
supposed to be such great Christians, they thought that the depiction of Christ as a human was blasphemy). Just so you know. p.s. I think it's at Newell Park also.
AllieGo - 06:11pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8078 of 22138)
Just for fun....Explaining Highland (But I don't think that it's Highland anymore).... It's between 94 and Hwy 5. On a big map of the city, it looks like it's the only park
in there. Another explanation for Highland, just in case you don't like that one, is that there is a 9-hole golf course and a Precinct #4 across from it and then it runs
along Highway 5. Or if you don't like that, there is a 9-hole golf course and then across the street from the 9-hole golf course, there is an 18-hole golf course
(9+4+5=18). I'm still waiting for the next clue.

am assuming coke refers to coke refinery not the beverage

By the way, Hi Tom.
MMC - 06:12pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8082 of 22138)
an iconoclast is more like someone who is a rebel -such as an ALC
denephew - 06:14pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8083 of 22138)
I live in the Como Park area and I'd like someone to tell me where the coke factory is.
ChiefSmoke - 06:15pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8084 of 22138)
have an interesting theory about 94 and 5 that meet DT...by the blasted Civic Center...cant tell any more...
Spencer Dorn - 06:17pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8085 of 22138)
it is at como trust me. iwas there today and al the cues matched up
rupert - 06:19pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8086 of 22138)
Spencer -- i was there as well. what do you make of the 945 thing or the famous name in many a tome?
Spencer Dorn - 06:19pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8087 of 22138)
ITS AT COMO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, i was ust there today all the clues match up. anyone care to respond?
Ashlee - 06:19pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8088 of 22138)
It's it amazing, there must be 17 different Medallions, because I've herad that many different "I'm CERTAIN ITS THERE." So unless you can back it up, quit with
the Bally Hoo...
AllieGo - 06:21pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8089 of 22138)
I stopped at Como...interesting, but not sure enough to start digging up soccer fields.
denephew - 06:21pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8090 of 22138)
It was just at Como 2 yrs ago. Why would they put it in the same park different years so close together? Not only that, but the snow slide is out there - do you think
they really want a bunch of people digging that up? Be logical>
steve allen - 06:21pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8091 of 22138)
Is there going to be an ice palace in the near future, if so does anyone know which park. ITS the blast from the past thing.

spencer why would the penalty thing have anything to do with clues
denephew - 06:29pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8100 of 22138)
Churchill St. does not run into Como Park. It stops just south of the park. Trust me, I've been doing this for 20 years-it is NOT at Como. I think you're reading into
these clues a bit too much when you get 4 players during a penalty.
Dave Chanhassen - 06:29pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8101 of 22138)
A spence - if you want to sound intelligent and bossey - type like you are.
2- It isn't Como
3 - You are not thinking in the theme of the Carnival
Robert Hunter - 06:29pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8102 of 22138)
Spencer- You are barking up the wrong tree. It's in Hidden falls park. THere are 9 pools- or wells- and the just dug up 4 new ones.
MMC - 06:30pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8103 of 22138)
den where do you think it is
ChiefSmoke - 06:30pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8104 of 22138)
Blast from the past could be the civic center that is non-existent now, and was blown up. that is where I-94 and west 7th (Hwy 5) comes together. There is a park
there, or at least what I think is a park which is a triangular form of land....you can see the cathedral from there and the capitol and a couple of other clues tie it there
which i cannot disclose...but i was wondering if anyone had any info about that area that i'm talking about...is it a park and if so what is it called?
Spencer Dorn - 06:30pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8105 of 22138)

an iconoclast is one who attacks traditional or cherished beleifs. so I think something will be different this year!

...an iconoclast is one who attacks and seeks to overthrow traditional or popular ideas or institutions (or who destroys sacred religious images). So we need to do
away with the old and bring in the NEW!! A tome is one of the books in a work of several volumes...or a large or scolarly book...we need the name of an author!
The devil's den in Newell park is being well picked over by now but I don't think the iconoclast is a devil. Some people think the first clue rules out a park that
includes a golf course...some think it is a park with a golf course...but don't dig in it. That one makes you think....

The famous name is either Pierce Butler - a former supreme court judge or Taylor - as in Zachary Taylor the 12th pres. of the U.S. 1849-1850 - (150 yrs. ago -
guess what anniversary it is for the Pioneer Press?) Both of these streets run into NP. "many a tome" Like encyclopedia or law book? Hamline( Law )University is a
stone's throw from NP I think that clue #2 is telling us to stay away from the snow slide guess where? Como Park.
AllieGo - 06:43pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8135 of 22138)
If at Como, where can you learn anything? No library or school that I saw....from where I would dig, anyway.
E.R. - 06:44pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8136 of 22138)
Haven't any of you thought about Newell Park,that is where it is for sure .Spencer- It is not at Como,it's at Newell,if you want the research,I can give it to you!

hey i just looked in the dictionary for the word "tome"... i knew what it meant but i found something worth noting... it is pronounced "toum" so it sounds like town
kinda... why would they put a word that LOOKS like HOME but doesnt really rhyme with HOME...
Sno One - 06:51pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8148 of 22138)
JANICE Many were talking this afternoon about Battle Creek and several claim to be going ther tonight to search, I haven't been able to explain all the clues in
relation to Battle Creek though.
The Rock - 06:51pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8149 of 22138)
ok tome also means a devils pitchfork. And maybe it could also mean the bible. But i just came back from newell just again to point out all the clues so when me and
my buds go out tonight at 1200 we will know where to go. It took me about 10 minutes to find and get to Devils den and it is a true place very hard to see especially
in the dark. Devils den is an enclosed place by brush and lots of trees. Its not small but isnt big. Surprisingly when i saw what the place looked like nothing was even
touched. i think i have been the first to go there. Again this place is very hard to see and the sign is so small and the path i s covered up by snow so have fun trying to
get there. right now i think im the only one that knows how to get there!!!
FRY HOLEMAN - 06:51pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8150 of 22138)
IT NOT AT COMO ITS AT NP
AllieGo - 06:53pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8151 of 22138)
Denephew...Newell makes sense, except for one thing....they have "never" given away the name of the park so early in the game. And with the $10,000, I can't
believe they would pick this year to do that; and that is a fairly small park.
The Rock - 06:53pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8152 of 22138)
speaking of the saints you can see midway stadium from devils den and clue 4 says " but there's VALUE as WELL as IN the NEW" that explains itself and if you
spell the letters out of the clues it spells SAINTS FA Im guessing we will see an N in todays clue.

Clue 4 talks about studying the past and the new, and clue 5 talks about learning. What at Newell fits that description?

yes but iconoclast can also mean something different like a rebel. It could possibly mean they could do things different as give the name of the park, but if they do
then they will just tell you things around the park that you can see from the spot of the medallion.
Jerod Mitchell - 06:57pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8158 of 22138)
"studying the past can be quite a blast" The torpedo in como hence "blast" and the torpedo has many names on it which a few were famous for a period of time. im
not saying the medallion is by the torpedo but it does have something to do with it
AllieGo - 06:58pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8159 of 22138)

clue 5 hamlin high school and some kind of law school is less than a block from it and clue 5 also jsut mainly tells you its in a small chest. very small
Dingo Man! - 06:58pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8161 of 22138)
if you take the first letter of all of the clues it is T,F,N,S,I,A it would only be Saint F
BD Carpenter - 06:58pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8162 of 22138)

Jerod-look at the second sentance in clue #4, ..."But theres value as well in the new..." Keywords>> well+new=newell! I also have plenty more reasons,you just
should've been here last night!
denephew - 06:59pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8166 of 22138)
AllieGo - I agree with you that they never seem to give the name of the park right away. But- in years past I have seen them point to one park early, switch to
another park, just to turn around and switch back to the original. I usually go with the clues as they come. I would never stay in NP if the clues pointed elsewhere :)
AllieGo - 06:59pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8167 of 22138)
ok..thanks.

I say this for a number of reasons. Longfellow Magnet School (Who was Longfellow but a famous writer i.e. tomes)
Both have Steep Hills in them but a lot of area without
One is near but NOT a golf course
Both have a lot of History associated with them
Both are near I-94 one also near Hwy 5
Just a few of the clues. . .

with me!
Barton Fink - 07:05pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8177 of 22138)
explain your reasoning D Chanhassen... i've looked at the parks on here and they dont work... but i heard the Hunters guide has kick ass maps... whatchya seein???
denephew - 07:06pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8178 of 22138)
From Woodbury take 94 to the Snelling Ave. exit and go North to University ave. At University go left (west) to Fairview (Arby's restaurant is on the south corner)
and take a right. When you get to Pierce Butler, you'll know it because you can't go any farther. Besides the park runs along Fairview for about 3-4 blocks Can't
miss it. GOOD LUCK!

ok, HELLO- hERE ARE MY OFFERINGS IF ANYONE IS INTERESTED.Clue 4 says a blast from the past- go back to clues of 95 from BC-value as well in
the new. I believe that to mean there are new clues hidden in the old clues from 95 (look also at the familiar numbers). Check out old clue #7 and compare to new
clue # 5.
E.R. - 07:14pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8192 of 22138)

and they want this to go the distance... you know how many people would buy the paper and hit this website if it went to clue 12? we're already at 8000+ posts for
6 clues... last year only 9000+ posts for all the clues and the aftermath... this thing is getting HUGE

the capitol is where 35e and 94 meet. the numbers 95 and 4. the saint paul tec college is studing the new, and the history museum is studying the old. I have a lot of
other theories about that area I was out there today and there were a few people out looking.

OK ICONOCLAST IS SOMEONE WHO PUTS DOWN RELIGIOUS FIGURES/IMAGES. WHAT BETTER THEN THE DEVIL. AND DEVILS DEN IS
IN NEWELL PARK BUT IS VERY HARD TO SEE AND IS NOT SMALL BUT NOT BIG. IT TOOK ME 10 MINUTES TO GET THERE MAYBE EVEN
MORE. THE SIGN IS VERY SMALL AND THE PATH IS COVERED WITH SNOW. YOU CAN SEE THE KS95 TOWER FROM THERE.
MushieW - 07:32pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8223 of 22138)
hey Dingo man....am talking to my sister on the phone and just read your message about your dad and we are cracking up!!! Sounds like he looked for the medallion
before there even was a treasure hunt going on! Hahahaha!! Just kidding....last year my sister and I walked over the dang thing and shoveled right next to it! I was
there when it was found!! Dang!!! So Close!!!!! I was right next to it!!! With a dad like yours dingo...we will have to say a prayer for YOU too!! LOL!!
Nick East - 07:32pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8224 of 22138)
I'm not buying everyone's theory on the 'yearning for something worth yearning' bit. I don't think this has anything to do with a school or a library. It is a lefthanded
reference to something totally different. We need to think of something that is yearned for. I can't think of anything. How is the word yearn used in everyday life?
Anyone with me here. I think this is big.
Fever has begun - 07:33pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8225 of 22138)
Barton, look to clues from 1995. Some huge similarities to this years. Would lead one to believe its at the same park.
10g's - 07:34pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8226 of 22138)
big up to the Aggies looking
u are yearning for the place of the MED.

well as soon as the clue comes out if it even refers one little bit to newell im there. Ive been in and around every part of newell today. WOW! much bigger then i
though. and like i said devils den took a while and nothing was touched there. Maybe i was the first and only one there. Have fun trying to find it cause i think that it is
there
Fever has begun - 07:38pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8232 of 22138)

Hey Rock! Look up the word devil...he is an evil spirit the ruler of hell...a temptor...an iconoclast is one who seeks to overthrow traditional or popular ideas!! Stick
with THAT not the destroyer of religious images. No Fever and Barton ... it is NOT Longfellow...sorry .... clues point to a park where it has never been!!!
sharon w - 07:39pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8234 of 22138)
An iconoclast is an "attacker of established ideas and usages" , says nothing in the dictionary about being against religion specifically. Although an icon is a "religious
image painted on a panel". I think you are thinking too hard on that one.
Fever has begun - 07:39pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8235 of 22138)

MushieW - 07:44pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8243 of 22138)
hey Nick East....you are right...that is a BIG clue but you are wrong about it not being related to LEARNING.... it IS!!
Nick East - 07:45pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8244 of 22138)
Didn't anyone have anything to say bout my yearning idea? What do we yearn for??
Fever has begun - 07:45pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8245 of 22138)
Go back to the beginning of the water cooler-you can get clues for any previous year. clue # 7 from 95 says" Consider a place to learn as you try to discern-
blah,blah,blah." Sounds like clue # 5 from this year. That would make much sense of clue # 4, "studying the past and value in the new."

okay well then the meaning has changed since my dictionary was published..in 1976. But I still think it is a stretch to then go to the devil, which isn't even someone

ok im not going to give the specific spot because me and my friends are going out there tonight at 1200 is all i can tell you is it is guarded by brush and many trees
with a small sign. If you see the sleding/skiing hill your gonna be close but not close enough. hey phone guy thank you very much in proving that iconoclast means
that.

Has anyone been to Newell today??? Were there a lot of people there? I went by Como today just to take a peak at the tiny snow slide and I saw some mis-guided
souls trying to find the medallion there...some people really suprise me with their lack of common sense.

Sno One - 07:51pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8256 of 22138)
Aireal Phone Guy That definition of Iconoclast you have is different from the one in my Random House Websters, It says...a person who attacks cherished beliefs of
tradition institutions. Religion is not mentioned specifically there.

I think it is at Beaver Lake park...(Note: I am trying to mis-lead the not so bright treasure hunters so I don't have to compete with as many people tonight)...all the
clues point to it. The streets around it are Ninth Ave., Fifth St., and 4 St., and the address of the rec. center is 495 Smith Ave. There is a golf course and a sledding
hill on the opposite side of the lake and satan lives in a shed in the woods near by, oh and there is a school at the bottom of the lake...it fell in during a hurricane in
1876.

Dingdong Didillydias - 08:09pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8288 of 22138)
I think the medallion is not even hidden yet. With all the hoopla about the $10,000 reward they don't want that publicity to die off to early in the Carnival. When you
get into the medallion hunt you are more likely to participate in other WC events. I think they are going to hide the medallion when there are about three clues left so
that the tension and excitement will continue to build throughout the carnival. Make sense to anyone????
Dingdong Didillydias - 08:11pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8289 of 22138)
It is going to be hidden in Newell park in about 4 or 5 days.

The Rock - 08:12pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8291 of 22138)
ok, well in clue # 4 it states "but there's VALUE as WELL as IN the NEW." VALUE=medallion/location IN NEWELL. The 9 5 4 thing is that you can see the
ks95 radio tower from devils den. 94.5 is the radio station number. iconoclast means to turn away or disbeliefe of religious images/culture. which would be no better
then THE DEVIL such as devils den in the park. Also a tome refers not only as a book but as a devils pitchfork. which would then mean no better then the location
of devils den. Then the letters in all the clues so far spell out SAINTS F which would then most likely spell out saints fan which would mean the midway stadium that
can also be seen from Devils Den. Everything points strongly to this location. what do u guys/girls think about that???!!!
MushieW - 08:12pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8292 of 22138)
Ding Dong...ring the bell! Wake up!! That would be a unlawful move on their part! FRAUD!!! No way diddly!! But I still like you!
Dave Stone - 08:12pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8293 of 22138)
The medallion is hidden--Pioneer Press would not risk the tradition of the hunt by getting cute for this one. After all, wouldn't it be difficult to keep writing these clues
without a specific place in mind? And if someone has already searched there, PP is busted!

They wouldn't be busted...
First of all they have a specific place in mind. They will place it there as soon as they get all the publicity they need. When it was hidden at Como thousands of
people searched in the field it was hidden in before it was found, so if someone finds it where someone else had looked they would think that they just came very
close...they wouldn't think/realize that it wasn't even there at the time.

old...in with the new....I can not find any meaning of devils pitchfork for the word tome. ?? What about the man of fame??? how does Newell Park relate to that??
Dingdong Didillydias - 08:18pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8302 of 22138)
Does anyone else see the logic behind the delayed hiding of the Medallion. I am not asking if you agree with me, I am just asking if you see my point and how that
would be benificial to the Winter Carnival and the pioneer press...right now the medallion hunt and the winter carnival is being mentioned on the news every night.

clever.
The Rock - 08:21pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8310 of 22138)
well like i said devils den hasnt even been touched and im going there if this clue points to it. Once you see a big hill go to it and you will be close but not close
enough. thats all i can say because i went there today just to scope things out when i go out tonight at 1200 and i wanna be the first ones to go in there.

A man of fame offers a useful name that can be found in many a tome...how would a man of fame's name (the devil?) be found in a "pitchfork" Hellooooooooo!!! A
man of fame (name) is found in a book!!!!! tome is a book!!!
rupert - 08:22pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8312 of 22138)
All I keep hearing about is this devils den. I have seen Newell Park, and if this place is hard to find it can't be that big. The whole park is not really that large. So we
have a medium size park with a smaller area that supposedly is marked with a sign. Why haven't you people gone and found the damn thing. Why hang out here and
tell everyone exactly where it is and shoot down everyone elses ideas? BTW there really are not any sizable hills of any kind at Newell. None that I would want to
slide on anyways.

Theory: iconoclast (webster 83') one who attacks venerated (to look upon with feelings of deep respect) institutions or ideas which would be Ventura, due to the
reformed party votes. The sliding could be last year's slide at the Capital. the 9,5,4 if you add the 4 to 95 you get 99'. The learning would be the History center
where you can yearn for learning and the TOME (a book, esp. a large one) that could the catherdal for the bible. Thoughts!!!!!
Nick East - 08:23pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8317 of 22138)
I also think tome is not the important word in that clue. It simply ryhmes with home....

You are all too trusting...these are big companies that are behind the medallion hunt not your family...they are concerned with generating a buzz about the winter
carnival. If the medallion was found now they don't have as much power to attract people from the suburbs and Minneapolis...ya' dig? I would just like to announce
my commitment to the pioneer press...they are by far the superior twin cities news paper and I love the Winter Carnival...I am just being realistic here...if the
medallion is found now they will lose much more than $10000

Ok, I thought about State Capitol, but clues say Saint Paul park. Last time medallion was at Captiol, it specifically referred to "public space". Capitol grounds not
City Property. But there is a small park Behind Cap that is St. Paul property.....

With this whole devil/iconoclast thing ... I am going to tell you this once ... The devil is not an iconoclast this is true because the devil is part of the belief system that
pertaines to GOD therefor he cannot go agianst that religious belief system ... therefor you must look to a historical FACT , an example of an iconoclast action

I'll throw this one last thought out, if no one wants to respond it will be my last. The fair is across from the job corps. Which is a place of learning. I can make the fair
fit all the clues in some way shape or form. Anyone want to hear it?

read 8316!! That will send you in a tail spin. The last time it was on the capital mall was in 89'. I feel that iconoclast is someone you look up to with honor and
respect. The score could be the new arena.

Dave Stone - 08:35pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8365 of 22138)
Rupert, I don't think its at fairgrounds, as it is not a Saint Paul Park as specified in clues. But, it was found once at Fair Grounds, under three inches of ice no less. So
legal, yes, likely, no.

I don't doubt your beliefs ... but the devil is still part of that religious belief system => if your good you go to heaven if your bad you go to hell and the devil ...
therefore my comment still stands.

Okay ER....a man of fame offers a useful name that can be FOUND IN many a tome.....name is in books!!! Volumes of books!!!! It is killing me not to tell you the
name... Also...of course the medallion is all ready hidden and of course they don't want it found too soon...that is another reason they would not reveal the name of
the park so soon as you think it was in clue #4....but the name of the park is in #6...(the devil made me say that) Haha!! LOL!!!

Dave Stone - 08:37pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8376 of 22138)
Capitol Mall is also a past hiding place, in a pair of earmuffs by Veterans Service Building. If your read past clues and compare, the leaders in similarity are Capitol
Mall and Battle Creek.
Dingdong Didillydias - 08:37pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8377 of 22138)
the medallion isn't even in place yet so I am not too worried about figuring it all out yet. I will wait until it is really obvious then I will go hunting, by then they will have
hidden the medallion.
Angelkiss - 08:38pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8378 of 22138)
ok, clue 1- there is a park in the fair. clue 2- The giant slide which is right in front of the park. It is a outdoor actraction I'm working on 3- I have several ideas clue
4- The modern building is right behind the slide, there is a church next to it wrking on 5, lot's of ideas on how it fits clue 6- Job, a man from the bible. A BOOK of
the bible. The job corps is across the street- a place of learn ing. Job is a usefull thing, especially if you like to pay your bills

I think it is at Valley Fair....think about it...one of the clues says "If you are a Wild Thing then you will start to sing, and if you throw up after going on the Tilt a whirl
then you are just a big wuss!"

I don't know if it is in St. Paul...I think all the clues point to Downtown Minneapolis...think about the clue that says "If you can see the place of the great choke, you
may no longer be broke, and if you are at Deja Vu...than you are a pretty cool person indeed." The place of the great choke = the metrodome!!???!!

the grand scallion!" Hot damn, I am going to go buy some scuba gear!!! See you at the bottom...good night everybody!!!!

I think it is at Beaver Lake park...all the clues point to it. The streets around it are Ninth Ave., Fifth St., and 4 St., and the address of the rec. center is 495 Smith
Ave. There is a golf course and a sledding hill on the opposite side of the lake and satan lives in a shed in the woods near by, oh and there is a school at the bottom
of the lake...it fell in during a hurricane in 1876.

Here's the proper interpretation of the clues: #1 It may or may not be in a park with a golf course. #2 It may or may not be in a park with a sledding hill. #3 The
numbers 9,5, & 4 will be found somewhere in the park, if you look hard enough. #4 Where ever you think it is, it isn't. #5 Somewhere within sight of the park there's
a book. #6 The name of one of dozens of famous people whose name has been used to name things, has their name nearby. Face it people, they don't ever want us
to find it!

is at newell) you will find it.

Egghead the Treasure Huntin' Fool - 09:46pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8597 of 22138)
yeah, well it's just too easy to spin off on one of those infinite loops of reasoning....
"If they mention golf course just to throw you off track..."
"If the iconoclast reference means challenge the conventional thinking then it just MIGHT be in the same park it was in only 2 years ago..."
If you stretch the clue far enough, you can wrap it around any park. Best to use broad, simple ideas and hope they all add up --in my experience anyway.

Alright, here's my address theory again. If you were trying to find an address, the 900 block would be easy to find. Even 950 wouldn't be too hard. But if it wasn't
labeled, you'd have to estimate where 954 would be (somewhere a four). On Como Ave Leading up to Chatsworth the address at Kilburn and Como Ave. is 950.
The next house is 958. This part of the park is far from the golf course or the action of the big snow slide. The Tower from Chelsea Heights school can be discerned
through the trees, and Milton St. is one of the streets a couple of (short) blocks down. Only an iconoclast would think they would hide it in Como again when it was
there just two years ago (for those of you who study the past).

Egghead the Treasure Huntin' Fool - 09:48pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8602 of 22138)
I thought the 9,5 and 4 thing might be bus lines, but they don't intersect.
There are also television channels, but I don't really see any common link there either; not in St. Paul anyway.

I don't know when Como closes, but I was there past 1AM last night. Besides, this is a very obscure part of the park away from anything that could be damaged.
snostar - 09:52pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8611 of 22138)
I think we should try to come to a consensus as to which park (at least!)

OK. First of all, get off this kick that the 9, 5 and 4 are addresses or literal numbers on anything. That's not how the medallions clues work. They don't give you
numbers, they give you something to figure out, use a little brain power here. Secondly, this hunt takes place on public ground, as do all of the clue references. If you
are looking at people houses hoping that their addresses are 954, you are wasting your time. The Pioneer Press does not want 50 carloads of people shining their
maglights at the fronts of peoples houses. Just think about it a little bit.

WELL HERE GOES. in clue 4 it states that: "but there's VALUE as WELL as IN the NEW" VALUE=medallion/location IN NEWELL. the 9 5 4 is the ks95 radio
tower seen from devils den. somewhere a 4 is 94.5 its call #. then an iconoclast is someone who has disbelief in religious obects/images such as disbelieving the most
powerful icon in religion and that is god what more better person than the devil as the iconoclast. Then a tome may refer to a big book but it also refers to a devils
pitchfork. and the letters of all the clues spell out saints f which either this is going to be refering to st francis or saints fan. which would then refer to midway stadium
where the saints play that is also seen from devils den. Devils den is not small but not large. protected by brush and trees. I took a look there and once i found devils
den the park is much bigger then i thought. what do u think about this?
jeloba - 10:03pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8650 of 22138)

For those of you who don't believe my Como theory, or ShovelBoy's refutation, here is the address info. 954 East goes through Phalen and Mounds Park. 954
North goes through Beaver Lake and a few tiny green spots I can't necessarily identify as parks. 954 South goes through Highland and Hidden Falls. 954 West goes
through Como.

Sorry MedCop, but you have your clues a bit askew. The 954 is in clue 3 and it would take more than just the word score to make me believe its referring to a
hockey rink. Likewise, I don't think the word goal is of any real significance, certainly not compared to the rest of the clue. Personally I don't believe studying the
past and value in the new refer to a park that has both old and new things. I think all parks have new and old things in them. Also I don't think Snelling was famous
enough to be the person they're talking about, though Henry Ford may be. My biggest complaint against Highland is the iconoclast clue.
The Rock - 10:15pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8687 of 22138)
well is all im saying is that devils den is very hard to see in the daylight so i couldnt see how you could find it if you haven't been there before and when i went there
earlier i think i jsut got lucky that i found it. Ill be there at about 1200 tonight with my buds with food beer and we will have a little fire

After reading thru the clue talk it seeems you are all without a clue,as in clueless! the park I was at today fits all the parameters and hasnn't been mentioned yet.there
were about 5 of us there on a beautiful friday.which means we're all 5 of us terribly clever or terribly stupid. As for sharing the location, that seems dumb, but then

I have some time to kill before the new clues, so here are some thoughts all of you out there may (or may not) find useful. Clue#1 Obviously it is telling us its in St.
Paul and in a park. I honestly believe they are saying the park has a golf course. Otherwise the line about staying off fairways and greens would be totally superflous.
Yes it would mean narrowing it down to three parks right away, but they're three really big parks. Plus it was worded ambiguously enough that no one really rushed
out to dig.

Golden Boy - 10:25pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8717 of 22138)
10g's - I wouldn't want to spoil it for you. Like I said earlier today - it's like one of those pictures that you have to stare at before it comes into focus. Then once you
SEE the "4" you see it clear as day - while everyone walks right by and never notices it. It's pretty clever of the PP I must admit.
Keep lookin' at NP and remember 9-5------4 is the key.
Brian S - 10:25pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8718 of 22138)
Sorry allison. I have to disagree with your clue #1. I think it means a park with no Golf course. Reason--Como is being used for the snow slide and people have
been getting chased out of there. Phalen overlaps too much of Maplewood for comfort. Highland is guilty by association.
The Rock - 10:25pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8719 of 22138)

For clue #2, I believe this is referring to Como Park. Yes they bring up sledding every year it seems, including last year. But what if it wasn't sledding or skiing, but
rather a big snow slide. If this was the case, they would certainly want to keep people from digging up the slide itself by saying you have no chance at all unless you
stay away from the action (of the Winter Carnival). That way treasure hunters (hopefully) won't disrupt the activities. I really believe this because I don't ever recall
seeing so many negative clues before (don't go near this, don't go near that). They're abviously worried about something.

Not Rice park. I am just across from there, and the power cords strung through ther for ice sculptures and Grande Day parade preps would prohibit hiding it there.
But there is the James J HILL reference library there.
NeonGodess - 10:28pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8734 of 22138)
If you look at the clue, it tells you to stay away from all of the action. Almost leading you away from Como, or BC for that matter.
Sno One - 10:28pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8735 of 22138)
ALLISON and BRIAN I think you are both right on clue about the golf course. They want it to be unclear. Thats why they wrote it that way. On such an early clue
and for $10,000 they aren't giving anything away. Which leads to you other theary Allison.
Mo-Info! - 10:28pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8736 of 22138)
MedCop--Thank you for that understanding. Yes, I was referring to Highland Park. I think that THE ROCK is full of it. He dosen't seem to know what he is talking
about. He should drive out to the parks and get more info on the parks. Seems like he is guessing. GOOD LUCK TO ALL. --DOES ANYONE HAVE A

Just started to read the clues thru #6. I used to live in St Paul. Now I'm in Cleveland. I may be way off base, but the clues smell like Hillcrest Park in Highland....hill,
library nearby, etc. Give it a try.....GOOD LUCK TO THE WINNER!

Clue #3, As said before, I think this a way to refer to addresses. They could have said "numbers keep track" but that wouldn't rhyme with door, which I think they
really wanted to use. So they said "numbers keep score". Adorn the front door definitely sounds like as address. As for a nine and a five and somewhere a four, I
believe this means that the nine and five are obvious. The four would have to be implied, yet not clearly seen. The KS95 theory isn't bad, but I really think they're
talking about an address as one could easily find the 950's but would have to estimate where 954 was if it wasn't used on a house. About seven different parks have
954 addresses, including all three golf course parks, so it doesn't narrow it down too much

Here is what I think....the iconoclast clue means one who seeks to overthrow traditional or popular ideas or institutions so it means out with the old and in with the
new... it is hidden in a park that it has never been in before....to yearn to learn you turn to a dictionary...a man of fame offers a useful name that can be found in many
a tome....a man of fame...publisher...dictionarys are books...one of books in a work of several volumes...=tome...the publisher's name of a very famous dictionary is
MERRIAM-Webster ...MERRIAM park is my guess....what do you think Dingo Man??

For clue four, I think they are talking to people who really study the clues and look to past traditions for help. Check out Greg Sax's CoolerCrew sight and you'll
understand the meaning of "studying the past can be quite a blast." But I think the overall essence of the clue is to say don't rely on traditional hunting wisdom, like
they would never put it in the same park two years in a row (or twice in three years according to my pet theory). Then again it could mean its not buried, or maybe
its not outdoors. Where ever it is, after its found, people will say "I can't believe that's where it was!"

Here's a new thought, to go with the old/new clue--Newell Park is somewhat near both the Amtrak station (new) and (fairly close...) Bandana Square (old). Just an
idea...
vallay lath moua - 10:39pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8780 of 22138)
Mo-Info, not quite sure about the famous person but at Como Park, there is a statue of a man named SCHILLER. Did a little research on his name and found that
he is an author of many books and even a Trilogy. This could maybe have reference to the TOME in clue 6 and the famous nam all together.

For Clue#5, its hard to say, but it sounds like it means there's a school or maybe library nearby. If so, that doesn't narrow it down much as many parks have nearby
schools. On the other hand it could be referring to where in the park it is. Somehwere where you can actually see a school. I really don't think goal is a sports
reference (try writing these clues without ever using the word goal). I do like the idea of it possibly being in a treasure chest just as it was in the early years. Although
maybe I like the idea because then it would be easier to find in all this dang snow!

Snelling, as is 5 (somewhat), on Como. Where the 9 could fit into this, I have no idea. Like I said, it's pretty stupid.

In 1967 it was hidden in the fairgrounds under 18 inches of ice, my theory is that there is some sort of tracking in the medallion, otherwise why would they tell you
that you must immediately return it to the pioneer press upon finding?? And how else would they know what is happening to it?

And finally Clue #6, a thing of true evil. All this clue does is confirm everyone's own pet theory as they read into it what they will. There's no way you could pinpoint
any single famous man as all famous men are found in many tomes. And what are streets and parks named after? Famous men! This is a clue that can only be solved
in retrospect.

Richard! I'm a friend of Eagle Eye! Nice to see you here.
I've heard those theories about the capitol mall too. We were there before some years back when it was found there. It's worth a look/see. I'm hoping tonight's clue
helps get us all in the right park.
christopher campbell - 10:51pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8831 of 22138)
Another reason for it to be at B.C., Longfellow was an iconoclast and Longfellow AVE. is right next to B.C.

Every one stop and think about some of the places in the Parks that you believe it could be. Think liability, the City would not allow it to be hidden where it could put
one at danger, such as climbing, going down steep hills etc. Think of safe places in the Parks and that is where you will find the Tres.

Does anyone know, or have a theory about when the medallion is hidden. It seems like they would have to hide it before there's much snow, lest they leave
footprints. But they also wouldn't want to leave it out where someone might accidentally find it.

Actually I don't know enough about Battle Creek to speak with much expertise, but it sounds to me like most of the park activities are on the Maplewood side. Do
the other clues point to the St. Paul side? I shouldn't argue with you too much as I used many of the same arguments a few days in support of Phalen before I
defected to Como.

Grannie2, Sorry, those were not IDEAS. It is obvious that the people on this thing never go outside and I was just trying to help them out with the FACTS. Wells
are beneath the water towers which have one of the best sliding hills at their base. The medallion is somewhere on the athletic field accross from HIGHLAND high.
remember GRANNIE I told you this prior to clue #7 coming out tonight. ALL the pieces are there. Solving this part is easy, the hard part is being lucky enough to
dig in just the right spot. Drive by Highland on Sunday and it will look like the state fair. TONIGHT ONLY A FEW INTELLIGENT PEOPLE WILL BE IN
HIGHLAND PARK HIGH ATHLETIC FIELD with a rake or a shovel and a little luck.

Nobody In Particular - 11:05pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8895 of 22138)
HELLUVARACK and GRANNIE (respectively)--true, that they would be wary of hiding it in Swede Hollow~remember a while back, somebody was murdered in
that little tunnel on Beaumont leading into the park? It would be dangerous, and they know that treasure-seekers go out at night...Grannie, Swede Hollow is located
near Payne and East Seventh--go up Payne to Beaumont Street, turn right, and walk through the little tunnel thing to access it. There is also a long stairway on the
east side of the park, and that is where the park dept. sign is located. Sorry to clog up the board, but I love answering questions...

Is it possible that by standing at one end of a row of trees you would be able to see some sort of sign in a distance? What is the "sign"?
Sister Sister - 11:25pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8982 of 22138)
Rock - No. Trees in a line, lead to a sign. They are trying to give us a street name - that's the sign - a street sign. What street.

huntingforit - 11:33pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#8995 of 22138)
This is really too easy. OK knotheads I will decipher the latest clue for you. According to Webster a row of trees is a hEDGE. The street, like I told you all before is
EDGCUMBE. Is that Clear enough. THE MEDALLION IS ACROSS THE STREET FROM HIGHLAND HIGH SCHOOL. I suppose I'll have to just go get it
myself, even though I don't need the money.

I agree with Sister Sister. This is a place to SHARE ideas not brag about how you know where it is and everyone doesn't.
I also agree with Allison Wonderland. I'm looking at the clues and trying to spell something with them.

Sister Sister is right. The sign is a street sign and the name on the sign is revealed in this clue through some kind of wordplay. But I don't see it yet.

Sister Sister - 11:38pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#9005 of 22138)
Grannie - Allison and I are on the same track - you too Geo. Its a wordplay, an anagram, something like what hunting4it is saying - but I dont get Edgecumbe from
just Hedge.
Cory J Hitzman - 11:38pm Jan 29, 1999 CST (#9006 of 22138)
