Re: GC70AB6 - Events in Adjacent Counties Challenge

[Resolved] GC70AB6 - Events in Adjacent Counties Challenge
February 09, 2017 03:45PM
Request a checker for our newly proposed Challenge Cache GC70AB6. Requirement is to attend events in 10 adjacent US counties. We have previously provided a "Contiguous County Matrix" for our Contiguous Counties Challenges which should also work for this request. All Event types are allowed (Event, Mega, CITO, GIGA, L&F).

Output should include how many adjacent counties events were attended.

A list of the counties & state

Thank you for your volunteer efforts in creating Challenge Checkers.

Please contact the script writer Target directly because it look like the script does not recognize any types.

Please give http://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC70AB6/24801 a try.

I added some extensions to Target's wonderful script. The text on completion may need to be changed. Please provide some. Also please provide a list of cache types you consider events. The tag is only for Events though some like Cito's megas and gigas to also count.

Feedback appreciated.

Thank you for your very quick efforts.

The Event Types that Vogelbird listed seem perfect to us. We ran it against a number of cachers that we had looked at manually before submitting, and looks like it is functioning correctly.

For output, the number of regions does not matter, as they did in our previous Contiguous County Challenges. (However it doesn't hurt). Simply the number of connected counties is what we are looking for. Since it is Target's Script, if it is not possible to list the qualifying county names, we are OK with it. Especially with the map included.

The additional output of other adjacent county groups (Beyond what is needed to qualify) is not necessary.

Thank you for jumping on this, even though Target did the initial work.

The output could read: "You qualify with (x) connected counties. 10 were needed."

I am trying to make the output such that it works with a minimum number of regions and counties so that you can do all your other challenges with types attached.
