Re: GCA3360 - 365 Non-traditional progressive variety challenge checker requested

Good afternoon,

I'd like to request a checker for a calendar challenge. At its core, it's a Calendar checker that looks for 365 of the days to be filled with non-traditional caches. To make this tougher though, I'd like finders to satisfy the following requirements:

5 unique dates with webcam finds
10 unique dates with any type of Event logged (Regular, CITO, Mega, Giga, or Community Celebration)
15 unique dates with Wherigos
20 unique dates with Letterboxes
25 unique dates with Virtuals
30 unique dates with Earthcaches
35 unique dates with Multis and
40 unique dates with Mysteries

The other 185 calendar days can be any type of non-traditional cache find.

Also, one nice-to-have, if possible. When the full calendar grid is displayed, would it be possible to display the icon of the non-traditional cache type that satisfies the day?

Thank you in advance. Please let me know if you have any questions or need any clarifications.

Thanks!
Matt (zumbido)

Here is the checker

Please test and tell us wether it is suitable for you.

Thank you so much! This checker is great and I love the calendar output, but when I check my own statistics, it says that I don't qualify even though it appears that I satisfy the requirements of the challenge. Here's the script output I'm getting:

Webcam Cache qualified 8 of 8 days, required 5
Event Cache qualified 105 of 116 days, required 10
Wherigo Cache qualified 15 of 20 days, required 15
Letterbox Hybrid qualified 20 of 24 days, required 20
Virtual Cache qualified 45 of 96 days, required 25
Earthcache qualified 30 of 58 days, required 30
Multi-cache qualified 35 of 99 days, required 35
Unknown Cache qualified 107 of 341 days, required 40
Total 365 days, FAILED

That adds up to 365 days, so I'm a little confused.

Thank you again for putting this together!
Matt

Checker works correct
When I check your find you did not find a Non-traditional cache on December 18

Can it be modified so that any one day can be empty, not just February 29?

Maybe you should consider to allow one traditional cache for the challenge?

Actually, it works well as it is. I found plenty of folks that qualify or were close to qualifying in this way.

Thank you so much for putting this together. The checker works well and the calendar looks great!
