Re: Need checker to check five (5) birthday caches (challenge)

My challenge cache rules are:
1. To log this find you must find and log five (5) of ANY cache on its date placed birthday. But this must include at least one of each type of the following caches Traditional, Multi, Unknown.
2. These can include any previously found caches.
3. You can not include a full series of caches placed on the same day so only one cache per day
4. You can include one find from your own birthday.
5. A find on the day placed is NOT a birthday that is the day the cache was born.
6. To reiterate rule 6 each cache must be at least 1 year old when you found/find it.
7. Your own hides are not to be included.
P.S.
Need checker also for my next challenge caches 50 birthday caches and 100 birthday caches.

I mark this as a new script required so a script writer can read this

i had contact with a script writer and it will take a while before he can make a script which fit your conditions.
If your willing to change the condition slightly I can make a checker with an existing script

The change would be
Find 3 caches with unique types (Traditional, Multi, Unknown.) on the birthday of their publish date and
find 5 caches with unique visitdate on the birthday of their publish date

The checker result will look like this

Let me know if this is acceptable for you

I would suggest checking with a reviewer. It might be considered to be contrary to the "Positive Challenge Criteria" guideline http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=206#positiveCriteria (specifically because, if a cache has its birthday coming up this challenge would discourage finds on it)

I can make the checker (I'm thinking about to make a similar challenge cache), however you should remove the condition 4 as the checker cannot know your birth date.
However, please ask your reviewer if this challenge can be published.

Does rule 4 even matter as one can only find one on any given day per rule 3? There is no different behaviour for a birthday as a non-birthday.

I can remove the condition 4. The changes is ok too " Find 3 caches with unique types (Traditional, Multi, Unknown.) on the birthday of their publish date and find 5 caches with unique visitdate on the birthday of their publish date"

Do you have a GCcode to attach the checker to

Challenge cache code is GC6ZF4V

Here is the link to the checker http://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC6ZF4V/25292

Thanks. First checks it will be fine. :)-D
