Re: Request Update to Checker for GC7MPMX "Oldest in 5 States."

Hello. I would like to request an update to the checker for GC7MPMX "Oldest in 5 States." I would like to expand the definition of "state" to include provinces and state-like subdivisions in other countries. This way, visitors from afar can enjoy the thrill of logging my challenge cache as complete.

Thanks for your help on this.

Can you tell the countries with region large enough to be included

I would say any. If a country doesn't have states, provinces, or the equivalent; then the oldest active cache in that country would count as one of the states.

I am sorry but we can not make the combi country or region in this case for the simple reason if the is no region the checker start look for a non existing name and goes into error mode.

For this reason I allowed in the new checker only those countries with a region on the PGC site

Here is the new checker https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC7MPMX/48504

If you want to test a cacher from outside the States , you can us WoSyHi

[WoSyHi](https://www.geocaching.com/profile/?u=WoSyHi) has used [Project-GC](https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC7MPMX/48504 "Project-GC Challenge Checker") to see if they qualified for this challenge and they did.

**You have found 40 of 5 required caches.**

Hello. Thanks for working on this for me. I understand the limits.

I tried to view the checker; however, the link leads me to a page that reads "This checker script is disabled." Is there something I can do?

I forgot to enable the checker. Sorry you can test it now.

It works great. Thanks for your help.
