Virtual now added

I has to look how a T5 Vitrual cache looked The one that was listed for you One Way To The Right Way http://coord.info/GC1BE4 has a intresting rating. A T5 with wheelchair attribut that you could/had to log from a car.
I would strongly disagree with that rating

Hey folks, do not mean to be butting in, but either I am having trouble with the English language or you are.

"5 x 5 Challenge to qualify you need to logged at least 5 caches of each type and the Terrain on 1 of the 5 logged must be a 5. "
The key phrase here is "the Terrain on 1 of the 5 logged must be a 5" Does the 5 in this phrase reference the cache type or the logs? In normal parlance the "5 logged" would refer to the "5 caches", if you want it to refer to the logs, why not write "the terrain on 1 of 5 logs must be a 5"?

The checker as implemented requires that every cache type logged must have one cache with a terrain of 5.

That is a very stringent requirement. In NM there are no T5 WIG caches.

Further I am confused what is 5 x 5 here. There are 6 caches and each must have 5 finds.

I noticed that the proposed cache is not yet published. Maybe the language will be changed then.

I agree that the requirements are strangely written. That was the reason I asked if I interpret it correctly and the CO said a did.
There is one strange thing in the checker. It asks for 5 of each type and 1 T5 of each type. Both tests are done independently. The T5 cache can be used both test. If it checked for 4 you could pass with only 4 finds if one was a T5

User has 4036 finds (5 needed).Filters:( types (Traditional Cache) )
User has 69 finds (1 needed).Filters:( terrains (5) , types (Traditional Cache) )

I thing a real T5 virtual more rare. The one I got for the CO could/had to be logged from a car.
There only 51 T5 virtual in the US and will only decrease
There are 78 T5 wherigo and one is in Kentucky where I think the CO is located

5x5 is strange since it is 6 types. A way to get it to 5x5 would to group the unusual types.

To avoid the confusion on testing a type twice I made a checker where each find needs to be unique
