Re: Improve GC8ZR18 - exclude locationless and moving caches

[Resolved] Improve GC8ZR18 - exclude locationless and moving caches
December 06, 2020 10:10PM
Please improve the existing checker on GC8ZR18 / 54783 by excluding all locationless cache types and moving caches. This challenge requires finds of 7 different icons in 7 countries so locationless and moving caches will give a potentially incorrect result.

A list of the moving caches to be excluded is here

On hold - waiting response from a scriptwriter on bookmarklist

The last reply on this thread (6th December) says awaiting a response on a scriptwriter regarding my suggested bookmark list. It is unclear if someone has started this work or if it is additional work which no-one has taken on.

If there is an existing script for locationless and moving caches which is already used then I’d be happy to go with that instead? I would have thought that this sort of script exists in some form; presumably there could be minor differences in specific caches but that wouldn’t be of concern.

This also applies to my other two requests. Thanks.

Here is a new checker https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC8ZR18/57494

Excluded are
- "Locationless (Reverse) Cache" type
- the official list maintained by Geocaching HQ https://www.geocaching.com/plan/lists/BM1A6W6?sort=name&sortOrder=asc&skip=0&take=500

Please test and reply so i can disable the old checker

Brilliant, thank you.

I have tested this one and it works as requested.

The other checker can be disabled and this thread archived.

Thanks for your help.
