[Resolved] GC820FG Fast Fizzy Challenge
January 03, 2019 04:19AM
Hi,

This challenge requires the cacher to find all 81 D/T combinations in a calendar year. There is an existing checker for the same challenge at https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC6NFPW/27120.

Would it be possible to adapt that checker to use for my challenge? I also noticed that the checker for GC6NFPW had spelling errors and wondered if they could be corrected in the checker for my cache. They are 'different' instead of 'diffrent' and 'succeeded' instead of 'succeded'.

Thanks so much,
JanlarC

Hi,

Here is a link to your checker: https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC820FG/39272

Fixing the typos would involve a new script, not just creating a checker with tags.... it might take some time.

If you are happy to wait, let us know, otherwise can you test the checker I linked.

Thanks for such a quick response. Yes, the checker works just fine.

I really would like the spelling fixed, but would like to submit the cache for review immediately. Will the corrected one end up with a different ID?

Thanks!

I don't seem to able to modify the script, but IF it was done the script should retain the same ID, therefore the checker would still work.

The script is actually 5 years old, so I don't know it will be updated.... no promises.

Thanks. I submitted the cache for review.

I thought that it would be a simple 'search and replace' of the two misspelled words. If you can manage the edits, I would very much appreciate it. The problem is on line 64 and 66 of the script and the original script was by Target. Is he/she still active?

Thanks,
JanlarC

Here's a new checker based on a fixed script:

https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC820FG/39275

Please test and let us know if it's suitable.

GreyHams: I've disabled your checker. It should actually be removed though.
