Not finding caches: design that limits or punishes any element of finding caches. Examples: Challenges that require ratios in finds; such as 10% of finds must be Attended logs, challenges that require finding only some particular type for over time, as 100 consecutive Mystery finds.

The challenge punish you for finding caches sine the requirement increases. Finding another cache shall never make a challenge harder.
The checker is also incorrect since virtual is include. My only US find is a virtual see the Quote. With the physically signed the caches yourself would also exclude earth caches and webcams. And if you are extreme evens since singing event logs are not a requirement. There is a bookmark list for traveling caches that can be used. An the Master of the Universe owner and the specified GC codes are not excluded

[quote]For the purposes of this challenge, no traveling caches are allowed and only caches where you have physically signed the caches yourself are allowed please (i.e. no virtual caches, no caches placed by Master of the Universe, and no caches where another cacher signs you in at another location such as GC3PBQ7 and GC2089W)

The max 51 states requirement is also not included.

One unclear thing about the challenge is if only finds in the US should be included? It feels like is a evil challange for foreigners if only US states are include but finds outside the US are counted
