[Resolved] Checker request for N.E.W.S. travels fast

[Resolved] Checker request for N.E.W.S. travels fast
November 14, 2019 08:21PM
HI
I am requesting a challenge checker for a new challenge that I created...I am not sure if there is an existing cache similar or not.
The GC code is
GC8G13J
The write up is as follows
This is a challenge cache...you may sign the log prior to qualification and log a smiley when you complete the challenge.

To meet the requirements for this challenge you will need to do some traveling.....who doesn't like traveling LOL.

Using North, East, West and South.......you must have logged 4 caches one in each direction at least 500 kilometres from your home AT THE TIME OF SIGNING THE LOG.....in case you move alot!

Your qualifiying caches may be found on your profile.

Example: My qualifiers are

NORTH: GC11F89 - The Hopewell Rocks Earthcache (New Brunswick, Canada)

EAST: (from Prime Meridian) GC127DT - Holy Well Section - Victoria Park (Nova Scotia, Canada)

WEST: (from Prime Meridian) GC2AC10 - A Pair of Double D's in the Loop (Illinois, United States)

SOUTH: GC3CXXC - Bonaire's staghorn coral beaches (Bonaire, Sint Eustatius and Saba)

The actual cache is located near Lehmans Dam....a nice scenic area...enjoy the hike in!

Thanks for your help Jane

Ok do you think it would get published without a checker?

No, the guidelines on challenge caches require you to have a checker for your challenge

This challenge could be an alternative https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC7115P/25085

The challenge is the total distance between the compass points

OK I have used your example and reworked my challenge....hope this works
The cache write up is as follows:

"What is the distance between your most eastern, southern, western and northern cache found? You can log this challenge cache if these four distances total a minimum of 7,500 kilometers

The geocaching statistics of your profile indicate which caches are Find Farthest North, Find Farthest East, Find Farthest South and Find Farthest West. Determine the distances between: * your most northerly and most easterly found cache * your most easterly and most southern cache found * your southernmost and most westerly found cache * your most westerly and most northerly found cache and add these four distances together. If this total distance is more than 7,500 km, you have met the challenge.
Example: My qualifiers are
Distance between North and East is 114 km.
Distance between East and South is 3,721 km.
Distance between South and West is 3,800 km.
Distance between West and North is 1,898 km.

My total is 9,533km so therefore I would qualify.

I used Google earth as a tool for these results."

Thanks so much for your wonderful feedback
