[Resolved] Checker Request for GC8HC7, Been There, Done That, Got 63 Souvenirs Challenge [The Flying Dutchmen}

On Project-GC the Profile Stats for Souvenirs shows how many souvenirs a cacher has earned. These souvenirs are sorted by category.

Can you build a checker that checks for the following:

For this challenge (GC8HC7), you need to have earned at least the following souvenirs:

(1) Country Souvenir
(1) Geotour Souvenir
(3) Region Souvenirs
(3) Unique Event Souvenirs
(10) Event Related Souvenirs
(15) Specific Day Souvenirs
(30) Other Souvenirs
For a total of 63 different souvenirs as specified above.

If the output could show how many souvenirs are still needed in a category that would be great.

Thank YOU!

The script is extended but your GCcode is missing a character so I can not attach the code to the checker
The complete GC code is GC8HC7D.

Here is the link to the checker https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC8HC7D/48146

Please test and reply
Thank you for providing the checker.

Running a few tests.

A couple of changes are needed to the output:

(1) the current "number of events" count does include the "Number of unique events". The "Unique events" needs to be excluded from the "Number of events". This is because they are counted separately on https://project-gc.com/Statistics/ProfileStats#Souvenirs as well.

(2) renaming the titles in the output. The reason is to make them consistent with the headers in the "souvenirs" tab on the page https://project-gc.com/Statistics/ProfileStats#Souvenirs :

In the output, rename:
"Number of countries:" to "Number of Country Souvenirs:"
"Number of states:" to "Number of Region Souvenirs:"
"Number of unique events:" to "Number of Unique-event Souvenirs:"
"Number of events:" to "Number of Event-related Souvenirs:"
"Number of special days:" to "Number of Specific-day Souvenirs:"
"Number of GeoTours:" to "Number of GeoTour Souvenirs:"
"Number of others:" to "Number of Other Souvenirs:"

This morning I saw a few other issues but could not replicate them later in the day. Once the checker is updated with the above I will verify again.

Thank you for your support, this is a great challenge!

I did verify the checker against additional profiles and did not discover new issues. The issues in my previous post still apply and need attention.

Thank you for your continued support!

The script was actually recently updated, so it should be resolved now?
I ran the checker and the two issues from my January 17 post still need to be addressed:
(1) unique events need to be excluded from the event count (For example block party and mega events are “unique events” and should not be included in “events”)
(2) Renaming of the titles of the groups in script output.

Thank you

Here's a different checker based on another script:

https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC8HC7D/48401

Please test and let us know if you prefer this one.
The latest checker (https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC8HC7D/48401 ) works well and the output looks good.

I will use this one. This completes my request. Thank You for your support.
