[Awaiting feedback] Geocache of the Week Challenge - is it feasible?

Hi all,
No GC codes (yet) as I was thinking up an idea for a challenge, but not sure if it's within the rules or not.
I was wondering if a Geocache of the Week Challenge could be published (to find 1 GOTW).

AFAIK the information is broadly available (see here) and the checker could be easily written up (see a similar challenge cache here), although this was published before the challenge cache moratorium.

Is it feasible?

The checker is easy to implement but this boils down to finding specific caches, which is against rule 11 of the challenge cache guidelines:

Specific Lists: Not Acceptable: A challenge based on elements under the cache owner’s primary control is not acceptable: examples, my favorites, my caches, bookmark lists, caches by this owner, or this group.

This thread has not received any further response from the requester and will therefor be moved to ARCHIVE Checker requests (impossible). Should the requester have any queries he can raise his question on this thread in the archived section,
