Re: GC2KEG7 Folboter JAF's Everyone-Loves-Challenges Challenge

Requesting a challenge checker please for GC2KEG7 Folboter JAF's Everyone-Loves-Challenges Challenge.

Requirements (from cache description):
1. Find ten (10) geocaches that have the word “challenge” in their names.
2. At least five (5) of the geocaches must be mystery/puzzle type.
3. The ten geocaches must come from at least three (3) different states (provinces/countries).
4. You may include no more than two (2) caches by the same cache owner.
5. You may not include a cache that you own.
6. This cache itself may not be included.

Requested detailed output (example):

<GC Code as link> <Cache Title> by <Cache Owner> (<Cache Type> ) <State/Province/Country/Region>
...

I am NOT the cache owner.

I'm pretty sure this would require a new script to be written. I wouldn't hold my breath, though, since it has limited utility given such challenges would not be allowed any more.

Given that this cache is in close proximity to the Giga event, it will likely see A LOT of traffic over the next two months or so. A checker would make verifying one's qualifications much easier for all of these people.

YOu can't do names of cache any more right?

No, or anything based on ownership, but this is a request for a checker for a grandfathered challenge.

Well, it has been a year since GeoWoodstock, and I see that you have already logged this challenge. Still, I thought I would try and create a checker for future seekers to use:

Please let me know if you have any feedback/suggestions.

As far as I can tell, that looks like it works fine. The output for me is correct/valid.

Thanks! It's nice to see people taking care of some of the stuff that others cast aside.
