The hide is not very difficult, you shouldn't 'wheely' need much help!

I am sorry but this criteria is not allowed

Please read the hiding guidelines 2.12.9. Time-Limited

Not acceptable

Quote
Requiring more than one find on any day or calendar date, even if cumulative.

well darn it all! I"ve done challenges from Edmonton that required more than one find per day so I assumed there were no rules about this.
sigh
I will rethink this and hopefully come up with a different plan LOL

thanks!

I have simplified the CHALLENGE for https://www.geocaching.com/geocache/GC9NECF_deuces-wild-series-another-fun-challenge-on-hwy-2?guid=2f19439d-dc50-4b4c-a6cb-718a0d007d96

I require a Checker for a 22 Day Streak....22 days with at least one find per day, past and future finds EXCEPT LAB CACHES AND EVENTS.

Is this possible? Thanks!

I don't see how this challenge follows this guideline:

Quote
9. Time-limited
Specifying any element of a cache page (type, rating, etc.) or find count (above one per day) required during a streak.

Bold by me. Aren't you specifying cache types here?

i really don't know what your problem is here?

I'm just trying to help here. English is not my first language so if anything I've posted come across as rude that's not my intention.

Here is the link https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC9NECF/66257

Please test and reply

thank you! That works!

should I clone this one (i've never done this) or wait for a 'new' link?

Thanks

Use the same procedure as the last one
1. Open the link as provided
2. Click on in the "link" button on the right
3. Copy the code for the third option and paste it into your cache description
(You might need to first click on the green button above the description to put it in the right mode.)
4. Save & preview and submit for publication once you're happy with it.

If you don't see the usual challenge check icon you might need to click the Source button above the cache description box before you paste the code.

THANKS SO MUCH....took a few tries but I got it!

@freddycougar Did the reviewer publish this challenge even tho it's clearly against the guidelines?

well gee whiz, thanks....I didn't know it was against the guidelines until the Reviewer told me...so I changed the description and forgot about the Checker...
so I would like to request that the CHECKER BE AMENDED.....I cannot exclude lab caches or events....

I NEED an amendment to this Checker please...I had originally said that it was to complete a 22 day streak of finding one or more caches per day, excluding lab and event caches.
I cannot exclude lab and event caches. The description has been changed but I need a new checker please and thanks.

I'm not sure why there are posts by others quite rudely challenging this and how many days with how many finds etc etc...I made a mistake, I've corrected it, the days/one or more finds=NOT A PROBLEM

thank you to whoever can amend the checker for me.

Firstly, NOBODY was rude to you, so I have no idea where you're seeing any rudeness? In fact, I think your responses to @Pleu are rude and uncalled for. Secondly, I've modified the checker to drop the type restriction.

@pieterix - I've made a smatl to the checker change to include Lab caches as requested

@vogelbird Ah yes, I forgot about that small detail.

sorry, some of us in this world are very stressed these days....if my post sounded nasty, it's because I read the comments about the Reviewer approving a cache that was CLEARLY in violation.....i obviously misunderstood the tone of that statement....I will apologize for this misunderstanding although I don't think my gee whiz reply was rude....sigh..

I'm happy to have the Checker amended...I should have picked up on that as soon as the Reviewer told me I couldn't exclude Events or Lab Caches...my bad....
thank you.
