[Resolved] GC3D5EB Streaking bingo card

I'm the owner of GC3D5EB, a premoratorium challenge. I'm wondering if someone might be able to locate and/or re-tag checkers for the squares that don't yet have a checker.

A few have already been done over the years, but I'd love to be able to just link people to the checkers for each square.

Here's what I know of so far:

B1 (25 days <=D3)
B2 (10 days Virtuals)
B3 (3 days UV Req.)
B4 (15 days Multis)
B5 (10 days of 7+ days lonely)
I1 (15 days Smalls)
I2 (3 days >10km hikes)
I3 https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC3D5EB/18453
I4 https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC3D5EB/20280
I5 (15 days Mysteries)
N1 (3 days Scubas)
N2 https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC3D5EB/18455
N3 https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC2YD1N/8432 (100 day streak)
N4 (15 days Larges)
N5 (25 days >=D3)
G1 (25 days <=T3)
G2 https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC3D5EB/20110
G3 (25 days Micros)
G4 (10 days Earthcaches)
G5 https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC3D5EB/20111
O1 https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC3D5EB/18454
O2 (20 days Regulars)
O3 (10 days Letterboxes)
O4 (5 days Abandoned Structures)
O5 (3 days 1+ month lonely)

I can't re-tag other existing checkers for this cache because it says there's already a checker (eg, for N3 I listed another cache's checker that has identical tags for the task)

To note, there is also this checker someone created ( https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC3D5EB/54778 ) which does NOT seem to be providing a correct result. It uses a script specifically for this bingo challenge, but seems to calculate incorrect results. I'm not sure how that can be dealt with?

Any help on this would be appreciated :)

Disabled checker 54778 but I feel inclined to remove all because multiple checkers to get the result is the wrong way to go. About 75% can be done with the multiple test checker of sumbloke and if he is willing to extent his script it can go up to 90%

Absolutely, a single checker would be best. That'd be a heck of a tag writeup though! :) It'd be wonderful if someone would be willing to.

Even if some squares can't be covered, that would be easier for people (including myself as the CO) to verify qualifications. I provided SQL scripts for gsak for each of the squares for people to use (notes posted pre-publish date), but now with pgc, why not make use of that optimized toolset where possible.

Here is the combined checker https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC3D5EB/59571
Bingo line 1 (horizontal) == "ABCDE"
Bingo line 2 (horizontal) == "FGHIJ"
Bingo line 3 (horizontal) == "KLMNO"
Bingo line 4 (horizontal) == "PQRST"
Bingo line 5 (horizontal) == "UVWXY"

Please test and when it is correct I will disabled the other checker

The attributes might be done if sumbloke can extent the script but the lonely caches can never be done

That's excellent! Thanks!

I did notice that N2 and G2 (H and I) are mixed up - N should be 5 days of Wherigos, G should be 35 of Traditionals.

The results match up to my sql scripts.

Hopefully the attribute streaks can be added. I swear I've seen attribute streak challenges before but I can't seem to find any. huh.

Oh, also some of the squares require "physical caches", defined in the listing as Traditional, Multi, Mystery, Letterbox, Wherigo, Ape.

Could you add those types to B, C, G, J, K, N, R requirements? (I1, N1, I2, O2, B3, G3, N4)

Made the changes
N - 5 days of Wherigos, G - 35 of Traditionals.
and
added to to B, J, N, R the type Physical

Thanks! That's a big improvement. I think all the other checkers for this GC can/should be disabled or removed.

I have removed the old checkers and for assistance I made separate, not attached, checkers for
"name": "C",: "3 days Scuba" https://project-gc.com/Challenges//59578
"name": "G",: "3 days >10km hikes" https://project-gc.com/Challenges//59579
"name": "K",: "3 days UV Req" https://project-gc.com/Challenges//59580
"name": "T",: "5 days Abandoned Structures" https://project-gc.com/Challenges//59581
"name": "V",: "20 days Scenic View" https://project-gc.com/Challenges//59582

The links are mentioned in the output of the main checker

Please test but keep in mind that the attribute streak checkers only give a result when the user has fulfilled the task

Excellent! Thanks.


Now I have come across an issue. And the only thing I can think of may be in regards to timezone crossing over midnight.

Test case: User Yells25
Cell I1 (15 days of Smalls) - the main checker returns a failure.

She sent me her spreadsheet of qualifiers, and I've verified she does have a 16 days streak, still in place (no size has been edited to other than Small) from 2019-09-18 through 2019-10-03. N4 (R - 15 days of Large) has the same issue.
For some reason the checker is not seeing it, and returning a failure for I1 (B). Could it be not taking into account the timestamp of the log the for day and considering it a different date? (This could apply to other squares as well)

Okay I picked up a couple of other alterations. In the listing I do allow any cache type for the Abandoned Structures and Scenic Views squares.

Here's the list of my latest inconsistencies:
O4 (T): Should be any cache type, 5 days Abandoned Structures
I5 (V): Should be any cache type, 20 days Scenic View
I1 (B): 15 days Small - Checker returns fail for Yells25 who has a verified valid streak.
N4 (R): 20 days Large - Checker returns fail for Yells25 who has a verified valid streak.

O4 (T): Should be any cache type, 5 days Abandoned Structures
I5 (V): Should be any cache type, 20 days Scenic View
Both checkers corrected
I1 (B): 15 days Small - Checker returns fail for Yells25 who has a verified valid streak.
The issue was a wrong number of days is working for Yells25

N4 (R): 20 15 days Large - Checker returns fail for Yells25 who has a verified valid streak.
Can you get me the dates because my backup checker does not find a streak of 15 days

I just noticed that the checker does not give a result on an item as it cannot find a solution which I think happened on N4 (R)

Oh sorry, the Large is right - that one had 2 cache sizes edited since qualifying so the streak is now (correctly) invalid.

I believe everything checks out now! Thanks so much
