GC30M86 Berkshire County Town Challenge request

Requesting a checker for GC30M86 Berkshire County Town Challenge.

There is one for the Massachusetts County Challenge, GC19QJC, so this would seem doable I'd think.

Thanks!

There is a big difference and that is that pgc has border polygon for counties and they are pre calculated for the caches.
For the "Berkshire County Town Challenge" there has to be polygons for the cities and towns.
Do they exist on open street maps? If they do are they correct? Else they have to be created.

Then they can be extracted and used in the polygons checker. I have never done that but is suspect someone know how to do that automatically.

Json files in OSM level 8 level available so checker will be made and json uploaded to the system. This will take a few day so be patient

Forgot to read a condition
"Event Cache - Since part of the challenge is to meet other cachers, Exactly ONE of your caches MUST be an Event Cache (only one - no more, no less)."

The polychecker has no option to select only one event so an event has to be manually edited in by the cacher

Please check with the owner of the challenge what to do.

Just creating a checker will tell cachers that they qualify while they have not attended an event in one of the places

Great!

Yea, the other Massachusetts county challenge is the same. Easy enough to substitute an event for one of the spots after the checker has run.

The checker is released but not attached to the challenge pending agreement of the cache owner. The owner is contacted and I'am waiting for a responce.

In the meantime the link is http://project-gc.com/Challenges//20323

I got the okay from the cache owners to proceed with the checker.
