[Resolved] new fizzy challenge cache
September 08, 2020 07:09PM
Hello,

Want to make a Fizzy challenge cache, similar to GC11PZW, as follows.

GC11PZW requires all finds on caches published before 4/8/2008.

My cache would require all finds to be published on or after 4/9/2008.

It would still require to have at least one of the following caches:
- Earthcache
- Event Cache
- Letterbox Hybrid
- CITO Event
- Multi Cache
- Traditional
- Unknown/Puzzle Cache
- Virtual

Please let me know if this cache is allowed.

Hello,

Haven't placed the cache yet, wanted to ensure it can be placed as a challenge.

My reading of the rules says it's allowed to post a challenge based on finds posted after a specific date. According to 2:12:10: Restricting finds to caches published prior to a particular date. (added Nov 2019). There's nothing about after a particular date.

Please confirm.

You are restricting the finds published prior to 4/9/2008.

I don't mean to be difficult, but I'm not reading it the same way. According to the ruling, I cannot limit finds to meet the challenge requirement to those published prior to 4/9/2008, as the current GC11PZW does (which is grandfathered). However, I'm allowing all finds after this publish date, including all finds published after the publish date of my cache. I do not see how this violates the current ruling 2:12:10. If there is another ruling I'm missing, please let me know. Again, I apologize, and if you'd like, I can also discuss this with a community reviewer. Please let me know.

Please ask advise from your local reviewer because the ruling sometimes change per country.
In my area it is not allowed

Hello Vogelbird,
Spoke with my local reviewer, and he's had agreed that there is no restriction to create a challenge that limits finds to caches that are published after a specific date.

Therefore, here's the challenge checker needed for
GC8ZVHH

Must have all 81 D/T finds on caches that were published after April 8, 2008. Any cache after 4/8/2020 counts, including all future caches not published yet. Doesn't matter if they are disabled or archived. This cache GC8ZVHH cannot count towards the 81 D/T.
Must have at least one of each of the following cache types in the 81 D/T finds:
Trad
Multi
Puzzle
Earth
Virtual
Letterbox
Event
CITO

Thank you, daBoiDoge

I have made two checker
The checker with the script you requested https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC8ZVHH/54429
This script output those not show evidence of the types used

An alternative checker with a different output for showing the types used
https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC8ZVHH/54550

Please test and tell me which you are going to use
