[Resolved] GCAFTYB Gridbusters - 200 size DTs

[Resolved] GCAFTYB Gridbusters - 200 size DTs
November 13, 2023 05:52AM
Hello sir or madam.
May I please have your help making a challenge checker?
The challenge for GCAFTYB is to find at lest 200 combinations of difficulty and terrain across different sizes. Worded another way, fill at least 200 squares across the fizzy grids for all sizes. With seven sizes to work with there is a max potential score of 567. PHEW that'd be hard to reach.
Qualifying finds can be hidden any date, found any date, any location, and be any type.

To make it a bit easier, here is a similar checker that bmuzzin made for type instead of size:
https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GCAFTY7/82698
Or there is this similar checker: https://project-gc.com/Challenges//71154

If possible, can you include the classic DT grid layout for each of the types?


Thank you for your help,
Ladderguy

I tagged it here, and I think it's working (didn't need to modify the script):

Test it out and let us know.

Hi bmuzzin and vogelbird.

This challenge checker is excellent.
As far as functionality it ticks all the boxes. It performs for both positive and negative tests with the correct goal of 200. The link between cache page and checker page link to each other, the GC code is correct, and the green and red numbers reflect the correct number of successful and failed tests.

Better than that is the aesthetics of this thing. It has the points breakdown at the top for a nice overview, all of which matches the stats I had built up on a spreadsheet. It has a great visual grid and even has the numerical totals in each square of each DT grid in case someone wanted to use this checker to geek out on stats. Let's be real, it's going to be used by a hilarious grandpa to find another way to smack-talk a younger, healthier, less travelled geocacher. Every community has at least one and I love it.

Thank you very much for yet another superb checker.
