[Resolved] GCA3VD6 500 combos of size and attribute
March 13, 2023 09:10PM
Hello Sir or Madam.

Similar to GCA3VD8, The challenge for GCA3VD6 IS TO to find 500 unique combinations of attribute and size. There are 7 sizes to choose from (micro, small, regular, Large, other, virtual, and not chosen) and a whopping 131 attributes (counting the 70 positive and the 41 negative). The maximum theoretical score is 917 (131x7).
This challenge checker has been approved by my local reviewer so your time and effort will not go to waste.

I have completed this challenge myself and below is the chart showing my grid. I've filled 605 squares filled on the grid. 369 of those are positive attributes, and 236 are negative attributes.

Please include a grid in the output. There is an example one I crudely built here:

Thank you very much, the grid means more than you know.

Hello,
I see this was put into the completed Archive, but I cannot seem to find the checker. Am I missing something? Did I do something wrong maybe?
-edit- Thanks for putting this back in the checker requests thread. I'm excited for this one.

Dr Acorn, those look amazing! The icons of the types inside the cells as well was a super nice touch.

I noticed a weird quirk where certain attributes don't seem to be relaying the information like the rest. It was consistent with the type checker ( https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GCA3VD8/76080 ) and no matter what username I put in place. I'm pretty sure these are all attributes that don't exist currently. I've listed them below in clumps as they appear in the checker to hopefully make it more convenient for you.
It could be ignored, but I'm guessing the move HQ would want is to remove those rows.
I would fix it if I were able, but I don't have the skill nor access.
Thank you for your help. This is exciting stuff and I really appreciate your time and effort.

You are completely right, those shouldn't have been there and I've now removed them for you. If I've missed any just let me know!
