According to my reviewer, challenges for badges are not allowed. Can you write a script that checks for these requirements, not using the badge generator? Per Reviewer: Challenges based on BadgeGen are not acceptable because it's a tool out of the control of GCHQ, and subject to change. You've done a good job avoiding any mention of BadgeGen in the cache description, but... in the past year or so there were major changes to BadgeGen including changes to the number needed for various award levels. I identified 6 awards (before I quite checking) where the Diamond award is now based on a different number than listed in your cache description. The checker is NOT checking for the numbers in your cache description, it's simply checking for a badge award. The checker, as designed, is not acceptable for a cache under the current guidelines. /forum/read.php?11,53167,53167#msg-53167 Tue, 14 Jul 2026 09:40:09 +0000 Phorum 5.2.23 /forum/read.php?11,53167,53471#msg-53471 /forum/read.php?11,53167,53471#msg-53471 Thanks vogelbird!

What a checker can not do

* The checkers does not have access to the user's home coordinates. Challenges are not allowed to be based upon them either, and haven't been allowed to for several years. This is a matter of integrity.
