[Resolved] GC9Q7T6 - Checker issue

See also https://project-gc.com/forum/read?11,64575:

If you try this checker for user jacqmans, for some reason the checker doesn't work, although he has found 2 countries in 4 different continents. It seems that his finds in Africa (Gambia and Tunisia) are not acknowledged. I tried with different users with a find in either of those countries and both countries are accepted in the checker for these users, so it must be something else. None of the finds by jacqmans in these countries are very recent either, so I dont think it is a synchronisation issue.

Any ideas as to why this happens?

It is a bug. The type check per continent (which you don't use in this challenge), was checking that you needed *more* than the required types. If you don't supply the type requirement, it defaults to one - eg. you just need one type on that continent, which if you have a find you will have. However, since it was using >, instead of >=, you actually needed two to pass. jacqmans' finds in both Tunisia and Gambia were only traditionals.

Anyhow - good news, I've fixed it, and they now pass the challenge now, with 2 countries on 4 continents.

Super, thank you for your prompt response!

Might take me a long while to get out there to find it :)... I might even qualify by then!
