[Resolved] Found 10 Different Cache Types/Icons, GC8JM0K
February 02, 2020 05:31PM
Requesting a checker for CHALLENGE: Found 10 Different Cache Types/Icons, GC8JM0K.
There is a similar checker for this - GC3EGT0 - DJBACH CHALLENGE: 10 Icons.
The previous checker I requested for this GC# (CHALLENGE: Find a Cache Below Sea Level, GC8JM0K) was not allowed by geocaching reviewer.
Thanks!!

Although I do not doubt a checker can and may well be created by the team here - having a high quantity of icons in one challenge is often questioned/rejected by reviewers. The previous challenge that you referred to was published back in 2012 long before restrictions on icon numbers came about.
It might be worth checking with your local reviewer whether he/she will publish this and if so you should have no issue getting it created here

@Deepdiggingmole
The reviewer have set the bar higher to 11 in some countries and 12 in most countries so I see no problem with this challenge

The challenge below sealevel in most countries is also excepted provided that there are sufficient caches available.
Sould this be that case then dannobub could send in an appeal the support team https://www.geocaching.com/help//index.php?pg=request

I agree and am aware reviewers in different countries set different levels - however I have knowledge of one for 11 was rejected and it was HQ that insisted on 9 on appeal - it was only through pressure from the reviewer that they (HQ) agreed to 10 for that particular one.
My suggestion of checking with the reviewer first was to ensure that that number (10) was going to be accepted otherwise a later rejection would only mean coming back here to get it changed, to say 9.

Thanks for the info!
The checker works great! Actually had a time finding someone who didn't qualify for it!
