[Resolved] Are these allowed?

I have two ideas I would like to use, butt I don't know if they are allowed:

1) "The whole world, binary!" At least one cache on the two opposite hemispheres, either the western and the eastern, or the northern or the southern.
2) "1000 square degrees" (The distance between the easternmost and the western most find) * (The distance between the southernmost and northernmost find) > 1000 degrees^2

Are any (or both) of these two allowed and possible?

Y? O!

I don't find this is acceptable for your reveiwer because it is not based on the challenge criteria "Challenge cache criteria may be based upon these geographic areas: countries, states/provinces, counties (or their local equivalent)."

User-defined mapping polygons, latitude/longitude, etc are not acceptable

But anyway we are not reviewers so you can always contact your reviewer about this criteria

The example you (Lézard13) gave is a distance checker which can be anywhere and not based on two opposite hemispheres. Reviewers do allow this challenge

Thank you for the answers.

It sounds like the first one is not possible, but the second on can possibly have a chance? I'll try it!
