Yes, the medallion has been found, but there's still lots to talk about. Feel the need for more than virtual discussion? Then join the Re-Hash Bash, Sunday, Jan. 27, at noon at Merriam Park in St. Paul.

Fine all you guys can turn on me like a pack of wolves Jake inge Thx 1138 and few others had accused me of lying about calling the park and location, and all I said concerning Allison was he was way off and was responding to a previous post that Allison is the best in the cooler. Ihave given Allison plenty of credit in the past but last year he was preoccupied with the film crew if he can't admit that that's fine. I had the impression that we are here to help people look in the right location and that's all I was doing, I was not trying to keep things to myself. ARE YOU READY THX1138 and JAKE INGE LAST YEAR POST # 19,746 I called the park and location the facts are there I can't believe you guys would cause me to slog thru 20,000 post to find it but I did. But I had to defend myself from the slander of being called a liar ALSO nobody has said to Allison that they are sorry to hear he's being laid off well Alison let me be the first and Allisison I apoligize if I reacted to harshly, but lets face it we all particpate in the pride of calling the right location. I was at conway and was happy you called it that year. These other's accused of lying so I was upset

Like Ares and Green were saying how nice it is to call the right park it's close to the finding the 10,000 So it's not about ego it's about let's try are best to call the right park. Last year credit has to be given to people who called it like STEPPDOGG post # 19,158 "Como", The Shoveler post #19,204"heading out to Como soon see ya'll there" Emmy and Hannah's mom post # 19,226 "leaning towards Como" Ares post # 18,857 "leaning towards Como" Regg post #18,887 "leaning towards Como #2 on his list later post switched Como to #1 on his list Good job Regg! Leah Logan was at the frog pond post #19,092 hey she was still in the right park. And of course Brandon Spry who called the park AND location POST #19,746

Just a quick point on the topic Mr.Spry. Some of us called the park and were at the park waaaaaaaay before we posted the park.We also use other forms of communication other than the computer.....I have found that it is inefficient to try to post and dig at the same time,although some may be more talented than I.:)

But in the end it was none of us that found the damn thang anyway!

3.) I'm only involved in this hunt because of my crazy wife.

Thanks Leelabell. I'm quitting for sure this time. I've finally made my mind up. Like frosty said, health reason's don't matter. It's the money issues.

I played with the numbers and if I invested what we spend on smoking every month, we can retire with an extra million.

Sprydogg- The thing is, I only post on here for a little while right before sleep, Kirk Condie has told me several times that he has turned over more snow than any other hunter in the last twenty years and I am sure there is a corralation to that and the fact that he is a two time finder.....

Allison Wonderland - 11:50am Jan 10, 2002 CST (#3005 of 24839)

Get ready for the Mock Hunt in February at http://clubs.yahoo.com/clubs/theallisonwonderland

Well sprydoggy, if you're going to get all civil about it, then I guess I will reply...

"Fine all you guys can turn on me like a pack of wolves Jake inge Thx 1138 and few others had accused me of lying about calling the park and location,"

I was too busy convincing people it couldn't be at Como to notice who actually brought it up first. I thought anyone saying it was at Como was on crack and ignored them. But it's hard to claim anything without someone else claiming they did it first and just didn't post it.

"and all I said concerning Allison was he was way off and was responding to a previous post that Allison is the best in the cooler."

I'm not denying that I was way off. But I think the tone of the post probably didn't endear you to anyone. The post about me being the best came from then documentary website. It also says hundreds of diggers will follow whatever I say. Well maybe a dozen or so went to AA last year, but obviously there's some hyperbole going on there for dramatic effect.

"Ihave given Allison plenty of credit in the past but last year he was preoccupied with the film crew if he can't admit that that's fine."

I'm still not sure where this is coming from. The film crew contacted me and they said they wanted me to be in the film because they liked the things I had written in the past. They also said if anyone was going to be out digging, to give them a call and I did because I figured that's what they wanted. I'll admit working on the film was fun, but are you trying to say you think I was doing things I wouldn't have done otherwise? I think if my behavior has changed any, it has more to do with just having more experience at this and becoming more confident (obviously overconfident last year). I don't think the film really influenced that any though.

"I had the impression that we are here to help people look in the right location and that's all I was doing, I was not trying to keep things to myself."

That's been a hard issue to deal with at times. Partly I post what I do to try and be helpful. Partly I do it for the consolation prize of the small amount of glory one gets for being right about something early on, even if you don't actually get the medallion. Yet sometimes in the past, when I have been right about something and posted it, other people would complain about me giving things away. So sometimes I felt like I should tell people what I was thinking, sometimes I felt like I shouldn't, sometimes I thought maybe it would be best to just tell certain people. But I think it's one of those things where you can never make everyone happy.

"ALSO nobody has said to Allison that they are sorry to hear he's being laid off well Alison let me be the first"

Thanks. On the bright side though it does give me more time for hunting. And for being in the movie :P

"and Allisison I apoligize if I reacted to harshly, but lets face it we all particpate in the pride of calling the right location. I was at conway and was happy you called it that year. These other's accused of lying so I was upset"

I think you may have been a bit harsh, not entirely wrong, but harsh. But I'm willing to forget about it if you are. I think what followed was probably more just an emotional reaction to the harshness, but now that you've made your case, I don't think you'll have to worry about that anymore. So anyway, let's forget about it and get back to preparing for this year's hunt.

Get ready for the Mock Hunt in February at http://clubs.yahoo.com/clubs/theallisonwonderland

That's my prediction, not a weather service thing.There will be some snow by Saturday, because we have to have some by the time of the party. But we can't have too much or people won't go. But I think we will have more snow by the time people actually start thinking about digging on the 23rd. So I'm saying some snow that weekend, but it will melt and compact a bit, and then a snow storm coming through around the 22nd-23rd with about 9 more inches. That's my guess. :)

Any chances the spotters might make some snow like at ski resorts and dump them in all the parks to make it harder?

just won't be as fun without snow, once we narrow the park down by the 5th,6th or 7th clue, its just a matter of someone stumbling around and finding it

if they were to use snow makers, m2k2 (wasn't that a droid on star wars?) it'd be easy to narrow down the park. wait and see which one gets snowed in last.
