Change History

Since change of year 2024, I received error reports from many different cachers (Paulaho, wilmaaah, Nortti10) regarding my challenge https://www.geocaching.com/geocache/GCA0BDC (oldest caches per region) , with error being timeout.

Apparently the same script that used to work for myself nowadays also times out for me.

Challenge checker script: The oldest cache from N groups (by arisoft)

As a first aid solution, I divided the original script into two parts: European countries and the rest of the world (links below, and curiously both do work just fine) as I thought perhaps this is a temporary glitch in PGC/script.
1) Haetut alueiden vanhimmat kätköt (vain Euroopan maat) - https://project-gc.com/Challenges//84069
2) Haetut alueiden vanhimmat kätköt (vain Euroopan ulkopuoliset maati) - https://project-gc.com/Challenges//84070

However, as the problem with the original script remains, I decided to raise this here. Would anyone have a clue what is causing this?

PS. Apologies, just now realized that perhaps "misc" would have been more appproriate forum for this - so please move it there if you think so as well. as apparently that is not possible to do by creator after initial posting.
