[Awaiting feedback] Size / Type gridbuster x40 challenge

[Awaiting feedback] Size / Type gridbuster x40 challenge
November 10, 2022 10:41PM
Hello sir or madam,

Will you please help make this challenge checker?
The challenge for GCA202A is to have at least 40 unique combinations of size and type of geocache. Lab caches don't count. They can be of any difficulty and terrain, and from anywhere on the planet. I personally qualify with 44.
Here is the chart of my finds: I was hoping the output would look something like this. It would be even more incredible if each cell could show the quantity of that combination.

Thank you very much.
For your curiosity, this is the theoretical max of the grid (as far as I can tell).

I'm sure no script already exists for this one... and I could write one.

But, before I do, and we have a repeat of last time... have you checked with a reviewer that this challenge isn't too difficult to understand for the morons out there, and/or considered a "bookkeeping exercise"? :)

A reviewer here recently told me that new challenges requiring finds with "not chosen" size are definitely not going to be acceptable anymore, so that's something else to consider.

Good call. I'll get the reviewers take on it first and let you know.
I am so gutted about the 'bigger better' challenge not going through. Thank you again for your amazing work on that.

Going ahead I'll switch up my sequence for challenges going ahead and run it past my reviewer first, then do a checker request. That should help things flow a bit better.
