The cache owner archived GC8JG2K.

As a reviewer, I wouldn't have published it, even after removing the condition about 17 different cache owners. The "X" pattern is a classic example of "Grid Art." This is not a geocaching achievement.

Thanks, I will move this to ARCHIVE Checker requests (impossible).

Hi
The "X" pattern is a classic example of "Grid Art." This is not a geocaching achievement.

Can you advise which guideline this would fail to comply with

I think it ticks all the boxes for

*Challenge criteria must be positive and require that a geocaching goal be achieved.
*The challenge requirements should be simple, and easy to explain, follow and document.
*A challenge cache needs to appeal to and be attainable by a reasonable number of cachers.

How is finding 17 caches of a certain type with specific DT criteria NOT a geocaching achievement ?

Thanks
