[Resolved] GC1A3HC - Geocaching from A to Z (Hartford County)
January 08, 2020 04:13AM
Greetings, this challenge, which isn't listed as a challenge is a standard A-Z challenge with caches strictly in Hartford County, CT, US.

I believe that the script "Spelling checker", by magma1447, with a tag config of
{
"phrase": "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ",
"counties": [
"Hartford County (CT)"
]
}

would do the trick.

Cheers

I've created a checker, but have also put this cache onto the exception list. It will need at least one other vote to be counted as an exception so that the checker can be active (it doesn't have the word "Challenge" in the cache title).

This is MY cache first off, and when it was created it was before Challenge caches were first designed. I DO NOT want a checker ti keep with the original spirit of the cache.

Okay, I have disabled my checker. This will not, however, prevent any other taggers from creating a checker in the future.

SINCE THIS CACHE WAS PUBLISHED BEFORE April 21, 2015 I requested that the checker be removed immediately as the cache is grandfathered into NOT needing one per groundspeak rules.

Why? It makes it easier for people to see if they qualify. Do you want it to be difficult for people to check if they qualify? It's not like you're being forced to add the checker link to your geocache page. It exists on a different platform for people to use if they'd like.

I am keeping the cache as it was, and it doesnt not require a checker nor do I want one. People can figure out if they met the requirements the old fashioned way.

Okay...? I don't really see how this is affecting you directly, but you're the CO so I guess your word is final.

Sadly, I'm not the script owner so I cannot remove the script for you. You'll have to talk to sumbloke to get the script taken down.
