Re: Presidential County Challenge

[Resolved] Presidential County Challenge
December 09, 2017 03:09AM
I created GC7FVP5 which requires finding caches in at least 18 counties named after presidents. Some presidents don't have counties, and some counties apply to 2 presidents, but I think you can work around that. The qualifying county names are:
Washington
Adams - counts for 2
Jefferson
Madison
Monroe
Jackson
Van Buren
Harrison - counts for 2
Tyler
Polk
Taylor
Fillmore
Pierce
Buchanan
Lincoln
Johnson - counts for 2
Grant
Hayes
Garfield
Arthur
Cleveland -counts for 2
McKinley
Roosevelt - counts for 2
Wilson
Harding
Kennedy
Ford
Carter
Reagan
Clinton

Let me know if this is not clear. Thanks for your help.

Try this checker.

It's great, but it doesn't double count the four counties that I identified - Adams, Harrison. Johnson, Cleveland, Roosevelt. I should come up with 18, but it only gives me 16. Is there a way to fix it? or should I adjust my coung?

Thanks.

It is tagged for 2 of those 5 presidents and I see that it gave you 2 Harrisons. Are the other 2 in the same county maybe? I believe that the checker is looking for different counties.

Let me just change the language on the cache, and the number of counties required. That might make things easier.

I've changed the language on the cache page to require just 15 of the following county names. Each name only counts once.

Can you update the checker, please?

Hi Faye

I've adjusted the checker. Let me know if it works for you.

Looks good. Thanks,

I've been told that there is no Kennedy county - it is spelled Kenedy, so it no longer needs to be checked. The checker should still require 15 counties of the 29 that are left. Can you fix it, if it needs fixing?
Thanks,
Faye
