Can you please write a checker for this challenge? Qualifying Criteria: have found 100 D5 and or T5 caches, including a minimum of 5 types (excluding event types).
Thank you

Here is the checker: http://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC6JXG5/21004
You need to fullfill the challenge before you submit it to review!

Sorry, I may need this modified, perhaps I didn't make my request language as clear as possible.

The user needs a total of 100 finds, which can be any combination of D5 and T5 finds. Also, they need to have found 5 types (non event), in any combination of D5 and T5 finds.

Many thanks

I'll set up the checker but it will be a two part with a summary
a) Find 5 types D5 or T5 excl all Events types
b) Find 100 caches D5 or T5

Is this the correct requirement ?

i thikn the checker is incorrect
it looks for 100 D5 inc types and also for 100 T5 inc types that is 200 finds

One post by the CO previous in the thread was

The user needs a total of 100 finds, which can be any combination of D5 and T5 finds.

I think this is correct

Orange Crew please look at both and days which is correct

Here is the link to the challenge http://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC6JXG5/21009
The output is only on GCcode because a full printout is too many lines

I used Clubmud! to test the checker because he has 2 event types D5 or T5 in order to see that they are excluded

The checker gives GC1MJ3K, GCZ5QR, GC101T9, GC1GVN6, GC1BE4
Which are:
Wherigo Cache GC1MJ3K 2009-05-10 The Farmers New Cache
Unknown Cache GCZ5QR 2009-03-20 Nathan's Famous First Cache
Traditional Cache GC101T9 2008-03-09 Koala Cache (Name the cache)
Letterbox Hybrid GC1GVN6 2012-05-20 The "Cheesy" Well Rounded Cacher
Virtual Cache GC1BE4 2011-01-15 One Way To The Right Way

Thanks, that is how I wanted it. However, when I run my profile it shows 85 qualifying caches, but I have found 95 (31 D5 and 64 T5, no event types). Any ideas why?
Re: GC6JXG5 500 Star Challenge

It's correct that you have found 31 D5 and 64 T5. But since some of them are 5/5 (both D5 and T5) the sum is only 86.

Do you really want 5/5 to count twice? That might require some work. I am not sure what magic vogelbird can provide for that.

No, that is fine, we will leave as it is, thank you very much
Re: GC6JXG5 500 Star Challenge
June 01, 2016 07:23PM
The checker still shows me 85 not 86?
Re: GC6JXG5 500 Star Challenge
June 01, 2016 07:29PM
86 was including GC6F493 which is an event cache.

To me your request isn't clear if events are allowed to be included in the D5+T5 count. But it's clear they are not included in 5 cache types. Vogelbird has excluded them from both. It seems like he can change that if you didn't mean so.

Sorry again to take up so much time and change my mind. Is it possible to see if we can write a script to include a d5/t5 as qualifying for 2 finds? That fits better with the challenge concept. Thanks again
Re: GC6JXG5 500 Star Challenge
June 01, 2016 07:30PM
My guess is that it requires a new script then, which puts you back to square zero. But I am not 100% certain. You could wait for feedback from Vogelbird.
Re: GC6JXG5 500 Star Challenge
June 01, 2016 07:34PM
I will await feedback to see if it is possible. Otherwise we will leave as is. Thanks for your time
Re: GC6JXG5 500 Star Challenge
June 01, 2016 10:43PM
I'm afraid there is no option than to write a new script or leave it as it is
Re: GC6JXG5 500 Star Challenge
June 01, 2016 10:48PM
Ok leave as is, I have taken enough of your time and am happy to leave it. Kind regards
Re: GC6JXG5 500 Star Challenge

I have a script that can do that written a few day ago. Exept the no event in the types part without a rewrite
I could exclude all event or include them in both test without a prolem
