Clue Buster:

I have not ruled out Mounds, but the frequent references to baseball lead me farther from it all the time. Unless Mom's really stretching it by "mounds" being a pitcher's mound and thus the baseball reference.

how many medallion hunters does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

werentany- i'm with you all the way- IT'S NOT AT NEWELL! But alas I don't really have any good ideas for where it is. There are several parks that fit three or four of the clues, but nothing seems to fit them all.

Werentany - 01:48pm Jan 27, 2000 CST (#3913 of 28288)

Its not at Mounds... it never will be again... too much destruction. If its at Mounds... then someday they're gonna hide it in a cemetary... don't think so. Don't be fooled by Mounds Park.

Werentany - 01:53pm Jan 27, 2000 CST (#3923 of 28288)

Duane... if it was in Newell... they wouldnt give new in clue and well in a clue so quick... i believe the smaller park theory because they haven't named a big park by clue 5. The smaller parks aren't given away until later in the clues.

Electric Duane - 01:54pm Jan 27, 2000 CST (#3924 of 28288)

also believe the line..."opposites attract and thats a fact" is very important to our quest... just gonna keep analyzing it cuz it is a true statement... now just to put it together...

Shadow - 01:57pm Jan 27, 2000 CST (#3926 of 28288)

helllllllo...is there a term "ace" used in lacrosse

kid minneapolis - 01:57pm Jan 27, 2000 CST (#3927 of 28288)

how many medallion hunters does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

Well, I'm actually not convinced that "astute" is meant to mean "statue." And I do like the FAIR_ interpretation for today's clue. And granted, Newell has shelters, a place for cooking, and towers. That being said, all the necessary features within Newell are scattered, no? If we are to look by the tennis courts, we won't be anywhere near the shelters. Finally, I think that "pace" and "chase" are important, so I think there must be a running path or similar in the park, and I don't think Newell has one (a path as opposed to a sidewalk). I hope this is sounding reasonable.

Climbing Princess - 01:57pm Jan 27, 2000 CST (#3928 of 28288)

clue 2,4,5,6 had alluding to conway last year.

new/well....not easily seen until starting to put it all together now....newell still looks good to me.

or midway....

Climbing Princess - 01:59pm Jan 27, 2000 CST (#3929 of 28288)

not sure about ace and lacrosse...sorry.

Werentany - 02:00pm Jan 27, 2000 CST (#3930 of 28288)

CP they wouldnt use the words new and well in seperate clues like that so early... thats why everyone is yelling Newell again right away this year... remember ... ths clues are meant to fool u and dont think for a minute that they dont watch this board each year to see how we all noodle and what tips us from 1 place to another... just isnt gonna be Newell... they may want us to believe it is of course

Join my treasure hunting club at http://clubs.yahoo.com/clubs/theallisonwonderland for future hunts during the year (well at least 1)

I don't think any single word in Clue #2, taken by itself means anything, including ace. I believe the clue as a whole is trying to say something. If so, the clues all point to Newell. Unmistakably. And that worries me.

CP - What do you mean by midway?

Werentany - 02:01pm Jan 27, 2000 CST (#3933 of 28288)

Most of the clues are a bunch of jibberish with wild words to throw us... there are just bits and pieces of each clue that add up as the clues get released further

Electric Duane - 02:02pm Jan 27, 2000 CST (#3934 of 28288)

The Diggin' Life Ain't No Good Life, But It's My Life.

Werentany/Kid Minneapolis:

I remember a lot of people jumped on the Newell band wagon early last year too with "studying the past can be quite a blast, but there's value as well in the NEW." Therefore people picked up a shovel and headed for Newell that night. I'm just wondering if it actually is in Newell, does that mean Mom has to avoid using the words "new" or "well?" so as not to tip people off. Maybe she's doing this INTENTIONALLY so we'll write off Newell early, under the pretense that "it couldn't be that simple!!" Or maybe I just need a nap.

I'll listen to anyone's theory, after all, management is always telling me to "think outside the box."

Sincerely, Beaten down by The Man

kid minneapolis - 02:03pm Jan 27, 2000 CST (#3935 of 28288)

how many medallion hunters does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

A few more reasons it's not at Newell: 1) as werentany said, if it was a smallish park such as Newell, they would wait longer to give it away. 2) it just seems TOO easy. It doesn't seem like enough creative thinking had to be done to come up with Newell, except for maybe serve=BUTLER. I don't have any solid ideas of where the medallion is, but my personal gut feeling is... not Newell.

The Map Master - 02:08pm Jan 27, 2000 CST (#3936 of 28288)

Hide It and They Will Dig

I liked Newell until I went out to take a look around. Now I'm not so sure anymore. Could be anywhere yet!

Clue Buster - 02:08pm Jan 27, 2000 CST (#3937 of 28288)

Midway is not a park.

Vegas Baby - 02:08pm Jan 27, 2000 CST (#3938 of 28288)

I think it could be that simple, actually. If you look back at the clues and meanings from the past, they really aren't rocket science. It just seems tricky because there could be so many interpretations. But everyone sighs an "Oh yeah... that TOTALLY makes sense" when you read them after it's over. I say go Newell!

kid minneapolis - 02:09pm Jan 27, 2000 CST (#3939 of 28288)

how many medallion hunters does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

In any case, I think that clue #6 will be of great help; probably a street clue. Right now, as I see it, nothing fits all the clues. Maybe they didn't actually hide it, but just made up random clues to keep us all running around town wasting our time. Maybe I'm too sleep-deprived due to the hunt and homework.

The Diggin' Life Ain't No Good Life, But It's My Life.

Although, if it's based on simplicity, we'd all have Swede Hollow torn apart by now because of the Vikings depression in the first clue. Electric Duane (I like to refer to myself in the 3rd person, just like Herschel Walker) is gonna sit tight for a while. BUT-- you can't win any $$$ by sitting on your ars. I shall name it "energy rationing"

I will have to admit that I jumped on the Newell bandwagon last year. I was one of the first people there and one of the last to give up hope on it...I'll tell you what: other than the Butler clue, there is only one other thing that points to Newell: opposite of cloudy and foul and rain is clear or fair and there is a view of the fairgrounds, but it seems like a stretch...Allison, care to share your idea about clue 2? I dont see it.

agree with the map master...i totally thought it would be newell and went there yesterday, once you go there you seem to change your mind...but where is it??

Climbing Princess - 02:14pm Jan 27, 2000 CST (#3944 of 28288)

Midway... "midway stadium"...I've been down this road a few hours ago. 1. firefighter tower 2. "light towers" around the stadium 3. baseball "park"...nothing in teh clue says it's a real "park" 4. inspection..."fire inspector"....firefighter/drill tower 5. "drill tower"... well/drill 6. relief...under the bleachers/outhouses/etc 7. ace....no hitter/ace 8. "new obsession" baseball 9. cooking "condiments" 10. "foul" foul ball/fair-opposite/fair ball 11. x-track...tracks by the stadium I think

anyone else run this through their minds?

got to go to class now. Hopefully my prof will say something that will somehow shed light on the clues. Yeah, right. Keep on pondering, and good luck all.

for newell...other street name links can be made.. fair...fairview... also pierce(look) butler (serve) too obvious? Not necessarily...how many parks would you have to narrow to find this street to get to it...I think we're just that good... or not?!

Miday may be a "park", but more importantly, it is NOT public property. Thus the medallion is not there.

I don't see my idea on clue #2 either. What I meant is that the correct interpretation of it has yet to be discovered, and if it were, it would either be something in Newell if Newell is correct, or its the one that will point us in the truly correct direction.

C2 - 02:28pm Jan 27, 2000 CST (#3959 of 28288)

A couple thoughts... There are two sets of television/radio towers located in Shoreview, which is still in Ramsey County - one is a set of two towers, and the other is a single tower - hence, one tower or two. The towers are visible from many parks in the Roseville/Shoreview area.

The John Rose Speedskating oval located in Roseville, just adjacent to Central Park, which may refer to the "setting a pace" clue.

Do you think I'm on to something?

All, Clue #5 names a street. The other clues refer to either things going on in the park, or areas in the park.

So, you already *have* a triangle, then? Why a triangle, or is that just the shape you've got?

Werentany - 02:30pm Jan 27, 2000 CST (#3964 of 28288)

Ok... here's some far stretched noodling... what if "some places to gain relief from the rain will serve to help you as your looking" (clue 4) what if the places will help guide you not serve you... could they be forts? Fort Road and Snelling as in Fort Snelling? both would guide you to Highland

yea, I know. seems this is a spot to share ideas/brainstorm... not be vague and abstract to the rest of the world. But if that's your style, green, that's fine. It's fun just hearing everyone's ideas anyway. And as someone said earlier, the serious hunters probably aren't on here sharing details anyway.

Mac, you're a love!

When the clue first came out last nite, it took me awhile to get it. Then, I second guessed myself and thought, "Crap! This izz the FIRST clue not in this park! Have I been wrong all this time?" I just kept thinking, HOW could all the clues be in one park and then jump to another???????

I noodled and noodled and NOODLED, then did some work on the 'Net...

And BINGO! I'm in the same park I first thought it was.

One word... Try "antonym". In this case "antonyms."

Princess, I'm not going to do your work for you. If you work on what I've given you, in conjunction with the other clues, you'll get it. I'm doing the best I can and still look out for my own interests.

Clue #5, in my opinion and from what I've noodled, names one street and ONLY one street.

Crazed digger year after year. My turn this year!!!

Green - I've done that but that's when the site would crap out on me.

Anyways, I think I just got your 2x4 in the middle of the forehead. You know I supported that all the way up until last night, but it seems they could have picked a more obvious street to name. Don't you?

Diggin', nope! Been there, done that in years past! Besides, they're nailing down the "side" o'the park... I *think*... I've got to check a map. I'm still not sure where in the park...

Ok check this out clue 4 spells out wars right? But one thing you have to read is the part in clue 4 that says read this clue carefully which in turn you get the "WARS" Then this clue tells you that opposites attract well what about a magnet i mean there is that Magnet Elementary school across from the park.

Climbing Princess - 03:56pm Jan 27, 2000 CST (#4122 of 28288)

the magnet is across linwood....or that's what some folks were thinking.

Rob'sWay - 03:56pm Jan 27, 2000 CST (#4123 of 28288)

Im talkin about you take the letters of the first for scentences and spell out "WARS" as in Battle Creek. And in clue for the way you get WARS is by the clue saying read this clue carefully. And on a magnet you have a north side of it and the south side of the magnet, each side attracting the oppsite. There is the magnet school across the street from the park.

Mac, I'm a "gull," "girl" said w/a funny accent. Actually, I'm an old woman, if you wanna know the truth.

Would a GUY bat his eye lashes at you? (Maybe you missed that post...)

There are no schools across from Linwood

lonehunter - 03:58pm Jan 27, 2000 CST (#4129 of 28288)

If I had to guess, I'd say the next clue will have to do with railroad tracks since Newell/Linwood have both near them

Hello..... and where art thou DONUT MAN?? Anyone seen him lately? Welllllll I agree that the opposite attracts thing could be relating to a magnet...ie magnet school of some sorts but.....if you put the opposite part as pertaining to the mood being cloudy and foul it would be the "opposite" to be sunny and ? (happy? good? many possiblities) :))

Climbing Princess - 04:02pm Jan 27, 2000 CST (#4135 of 28288)

"extract" could already be the reference to the rails...

Mets - 04:04pm Jan 27, 2000 CST (#4138 of 28288)

Hmm, now where could that be...

HI Guys, how's everyone doin today? Anyone out looking today? Where's everyone headed?

snostar - 04:04pm Jan 27, 2000 CST (#4139 of 28288)

Never give up, never surrender!

Hey y'all! I've been out of the loop for a couple of days...like since the clues started...(grrrr homework!)could someone fill me in???

extract could also mean "ex-track," as in a running trail that was formerly a set of railroad tracks. A lot of places do that now.

Mets - 04:05pm Jan 27, 2000 CST (#4141 of 28288)

Hmm, now where could that be...

I was hoping to get a start on diggin before I went back to school on Mon.

Whew...all this magnet talk has got me thinking: huh? Magnets oppose, they do not attract in anyway. Just my thoughts on the subject-I think magnet school is stretching it. Hey there Green, good to see you. Anyone still thinking that its at the horrible Newell?

lonehunter - 04:06pm Jan 27, 2000 CST (#4143 of 28288)

hmm right birdie, there's railroad tracks at those two places also over at mounds. there's not railroad tracks at phalen but there will be race tracks from the cars racing on lake phalen. i've been driving around scouting this afternoon. See ya cats later!
