[Awaiting feedback] Matrix challenge series (multiple challenge checker request)
November 14, 2023 10:58AM
Hi vogelbird,

Time for a new challenge project! :)
I'm working on a trail of (for the moment) 24 different matrix challenges.
The purpose is to make matrix challenges from different angles, e.g. by number, by type, by size, by date, by country and by attribute. There might be coming more, but this is the basic idea.

I made 24 new unpublished hides and for each of them, I'd like to have a checker created. I know this is quite a job, so please take your time! There's no hurry, I'm fully aware that I'm asking A LOT! I'm already very grateful that someone's willing to do this, so to start: thanks a lot in advance!!

Here are the different matrix challenges with their GC codes:

Challenge by number:
• Green! (1 full matrix) GCAGDBZ
• Some shades greener (26 full matrices) GCAGDC0
• The square matrix (81 full matrices) GCAGDC3


Challenge by type (a full matrix of only trads, only multi’s and so on):
• The traditional matrix challenge GCAGDC5
• The multi matrix challenge GCAGDC6
• The mystery matrix challenge GCAGDC7
• The letterbox matrix challenge GCAGDC8
• The wherigo matrix challenge GCAGDC9
• The event matrix challenge (as events are only D1, here the matrix is only 1/1 up to 1/5, so 9 different DT values) GCAGDCA

Challenge by size (a full matrix of only micro’s, smalls and so on):
• The micro matrix challenge GCAGDCD
• The small matrix challenge GCAGDCE
• The regular matrix challenge GCAGDCG
• The other matrix challenge GCAGDCJ
• The large matrix challenge GCAGDCM

Challenge by date:
• 1 matrix in 1 month (no matter which month, but e.g. a full matrix with only caches found in August, over all the years) GCAGDCN
• 3 matrices in 3 months GCAGDCQ
• 6 matrices in 6 months GCAGDCV

For this one, I know about this checker:
https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GCAFE80/78305
This one checks on a full matrix for every single month, but I already tried some Belgians and I’m pretty sure I can’t find 10, so this one will be too high to get published…

Challenge by country:
• 1 full matrix in 1 single country (no matter which) GCAGDCW
• 2 full matrices in 2 different countries GCAGDCX
• 3 full matrices in 3 different countries GCAGDD0

Challenge by attribute:
• Full matrix of 1 attribute (no matter which) GCAGDD1
• Full matrix of 5 different attributes GCAGDD2
• Full matrix of 10 different attributes GCAGDD3

Another special one as it’s actually one single attribute, but it may also be considered as a specific type:
• The Challenge Matrix challenge (a full matrix with only challenges) GCAGDCC


If you’d need any further info on what I mean exactly regarding requirements, please get back to me!

I meet the requirements of every single one of these, but of course, I’m not sure whether I’ll find 10 locals who meet the requirements for all of these, but as long as I don’t have the checkers, I have no idea how to find out… so this will also take quite some time from my side. By the way, is there any way to run a script so that you can just see immediately whether 10 Belgians are meeting the requirements for a certain challenge?

All the best and thanks again,
Carl (Palarunca)

Only the last 3 (matrix by country)?

Yes only the countries. These are better if the challenge is not yet fulfilled
Re: Matrix challenge series (multiple challenge checker request)
November 14, 2023 03:15PM
Great job!
Now my work starts to check whether I find 10 Belgians for every single one of these. Maybe I'll ask for some smaller adaptations later, but for now, it's just perfect!
Thanks a lot!!

By the way, is there any way to run a script so that you can just see immediately whether 10 Belgians are meeting the requirements for a certain challenge?

Hi vogelbird,
I'm checking other Belgians on some of the challenges I'd like to hide.
To be able to have a good view on how difficult the set requirements are, it would be very interesting to be able to see some more details on the checker results. E.g. for the countries: https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GCAGDD0/82792
Would it possible to show how many matrix countries someone has? Now I can only see whether they meet or don't meet, but it would be nice if I could see how many exactly. Would it be possible to adapt this checker like this?
Thx in advance!

Re: Matrix challenge series (multiple challenge checker request)
November 14, 2023 03:25PM
Ok, thx a lot!
If you'd have any ideas on even more other matrix/fizzy challenge variants, I'd be most interested to hear about them!
Re: Matrix challenge series (multiple challenge checker request)
November 15, 2023 10:09AM
You could make some fizzy's for regions
You have completed 6 regions
Drenthe (Netherlands)
Hauts-de-France (France)
Hainaut (Belgium)
Oost-Vlaanderen (Belgium)
Texas (United States)
Rheinland-Pfalz (Germany)

For you are missing 1 dt square
West-Vlaanderen (Belgium) (missing D1/T4.5)
Antwerpen (Belgium) (missing D4/T4.5)
Re: Matrix challenge series (multiple challenge checker request)
November 15, 2023 10:20AM
Another fizzy is total favorites per cell
Your lowest cell value is 1792 at D4/T5
Re: Matrix challenge series (multiple challenge checker request)
November 15, 2023 10:31AM
Fizzy with different counties in Belgium
Fizzy with different counties in Netherlands
Fizzy with different counties in Europe
Fizzy with different counties in the world
Re: Matrix challenge series (multiple challenge checker request)

Re: Matrix challenge series (multiple challenge checker request)
November 24, 2023 09:53AM
Hi vogelbird,
After some research of the Belgian top DT loopers, I'll change the 3 attribute fizzy challenges to 5/15/25 (instead of 1/5/10 as I thought first).

These were the original gc's and checkers:
• Full matrix of 1 attribute (no matter which) GCAGDD1
https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GCAGDD1/82797
• Full matrix of 5 different attributes GCAGDD2
https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GCAGDD2/82798
• Full matrix of 10 different attributes GCAGDD3
https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GCAGDD3/82796

So these will become:
Challenge by attribute:
• Full matrix of 5 different attributes GCAGDD1
• Full matrix of 15 different attributes GCAGDD2
• Full matrix of 25 different attributes GCAGDD3

Could you please adapt the checkers to these new set requirements?
Thx a lot in advance!
Re: Matrix challenge series (multiple challenge checker request)
November 24, 2023 10:52AM

Re: Matrix challenge series (multiple challenge checker request)
November 27, 2023 10:02AM
Hi vogelbird,
The challenges RubyShoos are great variants as well.
I can clone the tags for the seasons and the months, but for the days, the example checker includes that only founds in the UK count. Could you please make new checkers for my hides including all caches found on every single day of the week?

Monday Fizzy GCAGWH7
Tuesday Fizzy GCAGWHB
Wednesday Fizzy GCAGWHF
Thursday Fizzy GCAGWHG
Friday Fizzy GCAGWHK
Saturday Fizzy GCAGWHM
Sunday Fizzy GCAGWHT

Thanks!
Re: Matrix challenge series (multiple challenge checker request)
November 24, 2023 10:21AM
• 3 full matrices in 3 different countries GCAGDD0
https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GCAGDD0/82792
Also after checking the top Belgian DT loopers, I'll change the 3rd one of this series into 4 in 4.

So could you also please adapt this checker to 4 in 4?
This one will then become:
• 4 full matrices in 4 different countries GCAGDD0
Thx!

Re: Matrix challenge series (multiple challenge checker request)
November 25, 2023 11:19AM
Hi again vogelbird,

I made some new listings for more challenge hides. (We're almost there) :)

GCAGQWY Matrix Challenge Ave (by type) Triple Traditional (so having 3 full matrices with only traditionals)
GCAGQWZ Matrix Challenge Ave (by type) Quintuple Trad (idem for 5)

GCAGQX2 Matrix Challenge Ave (by type) Quintuple Mystery (having 5 full matrices with only mysteries)
GCAGQX3 Matrix Challenge Ave (by type) Decuple Mystery (idem for 10)

Then (following your advice) I made 3 listings for favourite fizzy's:

GCAGRVQ Matrix Challenge Ave (by favos) 250 in each cell
GCAGRVT Matrix Challenge Ave (by favos) 500 in each cell
GCAGRVV Matrix Challenge Ave (by favos) 1000 in each cell

And the last, I also made 3 listings for fizzy challenges by found day of the week:

GCAGRW0 Matrix Challenge Ave (by found day) 1 in 1 Day! (so having a full matrix with caches only found on e.g. Monday)
GCAGRW1 Matrix Challenge Ave (by found day) 4 Days/Week! (a full matrix on each of 4 different days of the week)
GCAGRW3 Matrix Challenge Ave (by found day) 7 Days/Week! (a full matrix, found on every single day/week)

May I please ask (again) to make checkers for these? :)

As for the counties/provinces/regions in Belgium, in Europe and in the world, I don't know you what kind of challenge I could make exactly? Then the World challenge would be the easiest or the hardest one? It depends on what you ask exactly of course... maybe you have some examples of similar checkers to have a look so that I could test with the top DT Belgian loopers what I'd do exactly?

Then one last one, as I don't have any challenges for earthcaches nor virtuals, could you make a checker for a half matrix? So at least 41/81 different ratings found? Or do you have one for a complete EC and virtual matrix? Then, again, I I could check Belgians top DT loopers and see what's possible.

Thx so much in advance, again!

As for my other last 2 fizzy variant questions (copy/paste below), do I have to make hides again or do you have test checkers available for these?

Looks good, but just out of curiosity:
Why does the checker result say 4 out of 14 instead of 4 out of 7?
Re: Matrix challenge series (multiple challenge checker request)
November 25, 2023 01:41PM
There is a fault in the text of the script . It is counting there the number of lines. i.e. text

4 full matrices in 4 different countries

Just stumbled across this thread with great interest - many of these I have achieved or am actively working on, so I look forward to hopping over the channel when these become a reality (and I'm seriously lacking on my Belgian DT grid, so they might help towards that too!).

In the UK, we have seasons: complete a grid in Spring (Mar, Apr, May) Summer (Jun, Jul, Aug), Autumn (etc), Winter

And the days of the week grids, so rather than an unspecified 4 days or 7 days of the week, actually having to complete a Monday grid, etc.

These challenges are really great for when your main grid does not hold the same allure it once did, so thank you for this project - it looks like an exciting one!
Re: Matrix challenge series (multiple challenge checker request)
November 27, 2023 01:31PM
Summer Fizzy (20 June until 21 September) GCAGWNH
Autumn Fizzy (22 September until 20 December) GCAGWNJ
Winter Fizzy (21 December until 19 March) GCAGWNK

No problem for the matrix, looks great like this as well.

Also this:

The challenges RubyShoos are great variants as well.

And then one last small remark if you don't mind for this one:

I just see that in the 'tag comment' of this checker, it says:

Hi again vogelbird,

Last post for today :)

I also made 4 new hides for fizzy's by season.
The only thing I'd like to adapt in comparison to the ones RubyShoos proposed is that the found dates must be the actual exact dates of the seasons. So e.g. for winter, in his checker it is finds in December, January and February whereas I'd like to make a checker where it's from 20 December until 20 March.

I looked up the exact dates for 2024 (the year this series will get published). Here the gc codes:

Spring Fizzy GCAGWNF (20 March until 19 June)
Summer Fizzy (20 June until 21 September)
Autumn Fizzy (22 September until 20 December)
Winter Fizzy (21 December until 19 March)

Could you please make checkers for these?

Thanks so much again!

Do you have the GCcodes for summer, autumn and winter

Spring https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GCAGWNF/83308

I can not use the matrix because of the date restrictions
Re: Matrix challenge series (multiple challenge checker request)
November 27, 2023 01:32PM
Summer Fizzy (20 June until 21 September) GCAGWNH
Autumn Fizzy (22 September until 20 December) GCAGWNJ
Winter Fizzy (21 December until 19 March) GCAGWNK

No problem for the matrix, looks great like this as well.

Also this:

The challenges RubyShoos are great variants as well.
I can clone the tags for the months, but for the days, the example checker includes that only founds in the UK count. Could you please make new checkers for my hides including all caches found on every single day of the week?

Monday Fizzy GCAGWH7
Tuesday Fizzy GCAGWHB
Wednesday Fizzy GCAGWHF
Thursday Fizzy GCAGWHG
Friday Fizzy GCAGWHK
Saturday Fizzy GCAGWHM
Sunday Fizzy GCAGWHT

Thanks!

And then one last small remark if you don't mind for this one:

https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GCAGDD0/82792

I just see that in the 'tag comment' of this checker, it says:
Tag commentaar: 4 full matrices in 3 different countries

The checker itself is correct for 4 in 4, but can you please change the comment into:
4 full matrices in 4 different countries

Hi vogelbird,
I tested the possibility to make the 50% matrix challenge for virtuals, but there are not enough Belgians who have 41 cells filled. I'll have to go for 33%, 27/81 cells.
Could you please adapt the checker for GCAGWPN?
Matrix Challenge Ave (by type) Virtual 33% Fizzy
Thanks a lot!

Also for the large, I don't have enough Belgians who completed their large matrix, 75% (or 61/81 cells) would do though!
Could you please adapt the checker for this one as well?
https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GCAGDCM/82781
Matrix Challenge Ave (by size) Large 75% Fizzy
Thx!!

Would you have a test checker for the size 'not chosen'?
Re: Matrix challenge series (multiple challenge checker request)
December 01, 2023 12:05PM
After checking the top Belgian loopers, I see that we'll have to go for 33% on this one (27/81 cells).
Can you please make the checker for it? Thx!

Matrix Challenge Ave (size) Not Chosen 33% Fizzy

Here is the checker https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GCAH08B/83436 but please be aware that it might not be approved.
Re: Matrix challenge series (multiple challenge checker request)
December 01, 2023 12:27PM
Thanks a lot! Why might it not be approved?
Same goes then for e.g. 75% large?
Re: Matrix challenge series (multiple challenge checker request)
December 01, 2023 12:32PM
The problem is that there are no new caches published with the size 'not chosen'
Re: Matrix challenge series (multiple challenge checker request)
December 01, 2023 12:40PM
Ah okay, got it. Thx for the info.
I'm glad it's only that :)

Hi vogelbird,

Another idea for a matrix challenge is one based on the age/hidden date of found caches.
So it means that you need to fill a complete matrix with caches that are minimum e.g. 10 or 5 years old. I got this idea from a friend as in the renewed project-gc stats page you can see the oldest cache found per type, but also you see the age (in days) of the oldest per matrix cell. Curious if it's something we'll get published...

I made 2 more listings for these:

GCAHBGY (10 year old matrix challenge)
GCAHBH0 (5 year old matrix challenge)

Could you please make checkers for these?

Thanks a lot in advance again!!
Re: Matrix challenge series (multiple challenge checker request)

GCAHBGY (10 year old matrix challenge) == 3652 days

After a first review, I got the remark that this checker seems to be disabled?
Can you have a look to get this fixed? Thanks!

Re: Matrix challenge series (multiple challenge checker request)

It looks like you made two similar tags and the latter got automaticly deleted
2023-11-27 10:25:58 UTC (1) Palarunca cloned tag 72130 into 83289 using GCAGWK2
2023-11-27 10:25:57 UTC (1) Palarunca cloned tag 72130 into 83288 using GCAGWK2

You need to use https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GCAGWK2/83288 which is enabled

Hi vogelbird,
After new review info, I'll change GCAGDD1.
https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GCAGDD1/82797
Can you please adapt the checker for this one from 5 to 10 different attributes required?
Thx!
Re: Matrix challenge series (multiple challenge checker request)
January 03, 2024 10:05AM
Changed 10 different attribute grids

Can you also make one last (hopefully!) :) checker for this new hide GCAJ024
It requires 1 full matrix found in 1 Belgian region
Thanks!!
