The above checker is a resus cache checker
When I ran it I found an additional cache on the list to one I have been collating
When I checked I found the additional 'candidate' and discovered that I had not counted it as a resus as there had been another find prior to ours on the same day and it had been logged prior to ours on GC too thus should not have been picked up as a resus.
I was under the impression that the checker looked for gaps between my logs and the next previous log - on this occasion the gap is the same day so shouls d have recorded a '0' count but instead it has ignored that
I appreciate these circumstances are not common (such luck that you go and look for a resus cache and some one beat you to it on the same day) but it does skew the findings

Any ideas

Tim
