[Resolved] GC7115P Improve checker (No Locationless)

Hi, I was made aware that people qualify for challenge cache GC7115P if they have logged a locationless cache like GC8FR0G or GC8NEAT which are located in Seattle. Can the checker be improved in such a way that locationless caches are excluded?
Profile name to check with is Theodd1. Thanks in advance.
Best regards, GeoLash

Only the tagger can change his tag so please contact sloth96 direct by pressing the little envelop behind his name on the checker icon.
But just in case you have difficulties I made an alternative checker

Thanks, Vogelbird. I have contacted sloth96 anyway as some geocachers will be able to find (and use) the old checker/tag still. You may close this request now.

I saw this post and missed the message. That is a straightforward change.

Are you going to be updating the challenge description to exclude locationless caches?

Thanks for updating the tag. In the meantime I have updated the cache listing and explicitly mentioned that locationless caches are excluded and not counted for meeting the challenge. Some geocachers already took advantage of this loophole.
