[Resolved] Challenge Checker for 7 Sizes in One Region

[Resolved] Challenge Checker for 7 Sizes in One Region

Hi
We need a checker for finding 7 sizes in a day (micro, small, regular, large, virtual, unknown and 'not chosen').
The GC code of our unpublished cache is GC8PMRE
A checker of the same type is used in cache GC3AQZZ - Does Size Matter ? A Challenge Cache
Many thanks in advance

I'm sorry but since the introduction in 2016 of the challenge guidelines this type of challenge is no longer allowed.

Please read https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=127&pgid=206#timeLimited

Not acceptable

Time-limited caching: as in some number of finds per day, week, month, or year. Example, Busy Day, 50 finds in a day, 500 finds in a month, etc.

Thank you vogelbird for clarifying that for us. We would like this challenge to be concerned with cache sizes, so we hope that these requirements below will be allowed under section 12 of the challenge cache guidelines - "Finding a discrete number in a specified area, e.g. some reasonable number of EarthCaches in France would be publishable.":

Find a certain number of all seven cache sizes in any one region, anywhere in the world.

The required numbers would be micro (x750), small (x400), regular (x75), large (x5), virtual (x10), other/unknown (x200) and 'not chosen' (x10).

Would it be possible to have a checker with these criteria for GC8PMRE, please?

Many thanks
GCZ Team

As far as I know there is no solution with an existing script. A scriptwriter will have to make a new script or a script extension.
