Re: GC78XHD

Hi

Could I request what I presume would be a very straightforward checker for a very straightforward challenge?

The criteria is to find three cache types (e.g. trad, multi, mystery) in the USA.

I have searched for one that could clone, but did not find anything.

Many thanks,

RubyShoos

Yes, that's easy to do. So only 1 of each anywhere in the USA?
If so, the following should do it: http://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC78XHD/27608

Yep, that's it (the challenge isn't in the US, now that really would be a bit too easy ;) )

OK, just looked at the checker you suggested. Do i need to do anything to the code to define the parameters? ::o

No, you simply include the link I gave you. And yes, I suspected that this challenge would be way too easy if it was based in the USA. :)

And please let us know if the checker is working as expected.

Thank you so much - that was too easy :)o Despite owning many, many challenge caches, this is my first foray into the world of post-moratorium challenge cache placement!

Thought I'd start with something very simple, but I have some more in the pipeline, just waiting for reviewer's agreement-in-principle before I request a checker.

Thanks again,

It seems to work OK.

I think I have found 6 types in the US, but it just shows the Trads, Multis and Mysteries I have found - but rather than one of each types it shows all of them, i.e. 11 trads, 1 multi and 3 mysteries.

Ah, I misunderstood the request then. I thought you only wanted those 3 types. Let me find a new script. So you want any 3 types?
New checker then: http://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC78XHD/27609

Thank you both for your time - much appreciated.

I've gone for the second one because the output provides the GC codes and find date. I am quite ~~pedantic~~ particular about the info in logs - and this is what it asks for on the cache page!

This is most definitely RESOLVED.

Thank you again.
