[Cancelled] GC9ZCW8 - need a checker

Hi - I need a checker for a new challenge cache (GC9ZCW8) I would like to create.

Find 2 caches 3,000 meters apart in elevation, ON THE SAME DAY.

I have done it with GC58KV2 (at 3,083 meters) and GCH657 (at -83 meters).

If possible, please create an output that would indicate which caches are being used, 'pretty it up' a little bit.

Tx in advance - Bruce (Hyack)

Sorry, Hyack --- I don't think this one can be done:

Quote
Challenge Cache Guidelines - Section 9: Time-Limited

NOT ACCEPTABLE
Time-limited caching: as in some number of finds per day, week, month, or year. Examples: Busy Day, 50 finds in a day, 500 finds in a month, etc.

Can you make a checker and I will see if I can get it published?

Maybe make 2 checkers:

1 for 1 day
Another to not limit the time

Here's one that doesn't limit the time:

Here's one that does:

Let me know what Brian says, and I'll delete the other checker to prevent it from messing up PGC.

Re; https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC9ZCW8/71156

I think, as PGC, we should not give a checker which does not comply with the guidelines
There are reviewers who are relyind on what the forum is producing

Please remove the checker because the guidelines states that it is not allowed to "Requiring more than one find on any day or calendar date"

Ah, fair, the "Time Limited" guideline was what popped into my mind but I guess there are multiple guidelines that might apply here.

I've disabled it, for now, so that it is not accessible to the general public.

Tx guys; you were both right. I can't do the 1 day thing, which kind of ruins the charm of the challenge. I will just give up on this challenge cache and come up with something else.

Tx for your help - Bruce
