Hi,
I need a checker for a challenge.
GC78C92
Most caches must have to be found on a Sunday.
At least 1000 found logs.
That's it.
Thanks in advance.
Regards, orso81

Hi,
thanks.
Not exactly what I was looking for.
At least 1000 found logs (independent from day or type)
Most found logs on a Sunday. (greatest value in %)
Not 1000 on a Sunday.

This requirement may violate the "Find date" guideline "Restrictions on date of finds used for the challenge are not permitted.". This is very subjective guideline but I have got challenge rejection for this reason for specific days of year.

Anyway, the problem with this kind of requirement is the demand for "Positive Challenge Criteria". Your design punishes geocacher if there is more finds at some other weekday than sunday. I am quite sure that this will not be published for this reason. I think you should consider absolute numbers for each weekday or group of them instead of comparison between them.

Reviewer here, agreeing that there may be a guideline issue. If not what arisoft described, then perhaps for altering a geocacher's behavior, by motivating them to NOT find caches on days other than Sunday.
