[Resolved] Challenge checker for 50 state traditionals
August 13, 2021 09:35AM
I have looked and couldn't find a checker for finding at least one traditional cache in every state.
Not Puzzles, Multis, Virtuals, Letterbox, Events, CITOs, etc. They do not count. Just traditionals.
Would be for https://coord.info/GC9F29G once I qualify.
Is this possible?

I presume you mean states of the United States....I am in Australia :-)

I made the checker for you, but it reports you have found 49 of the 50.... but wow, that's a lot!

So....as you may know, you need to prove you qualify before you can place...but that's for you and your reviewer. Here is your checker, can you please test it and reply.

Wow you are fast.
Sorry. Yes United States. I have only logged 48 of the 50 states.
If I had to guess I would think the District of Columbia got mixed in with the states.
I looked a the source code... It might as well have been in Sanskrit.
Is it possible that is the issue?


Thanks,

Lol, sometimes it feels like sanskrit when I am trying to find a problem!
Yes, the checking system treats DC as a 'region', just like all the states.

I have modified the checker to exclude DC and also to output the list of states qualified. :-)
