Re: Request checker for GC9A6B1

Would someone please help me with a checker for GC9A6B1 You Sure Get Around Challenge? The criterion is that the cacher must have found caches with unique icons in 14 different states. It would be similar to https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC97BEQ/59965 but with 14 states instead of 10. Thanks in advance!

Here you go: https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC9A6B1/60358
Please test and reply. Note locationless caches, and the District of Columbia are excluded as per the cache you referenced. Let me know if you want that changed.

Thanks. It's fine to exclude locationless and DC. It works well for some cachers, but when I test others, the script never executes and finally times out. For example, can you try DrPowercat or kcsmiths? I can't get the checker to work on either one of them, so something's up.

There is an iterative component to some checkers that make them time out for cachers who don't meet the challenge - it also occurs with an iterative checker I have. There aren't going to be too many cachers who have 14 unique types.

Can you reduce the number of solved to 8 as recommended by vogelbird?

Okay, I guess I'll go with it. Thanks for the work on this!

Reduce the number of solves to 8 that will reduce the timeout problem

Do you mean that I would need to change the criterion to finding only 8 icons? That wouldn't be too much of a challenge. Many cachers in my area have 14 or 15. This checker https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC97BEQ/59204 seems to work fine for 10 icons.

No, only a line in the config needs to be changed by oz_bean_counter

That would be awesome. Can you please do that?

Only oz_bean_counter, who is the tagger, can change the config of the checker

Changed to 8 as requested.

Awesome! It works perfectly now. Thanks for the help!
