Re: Checker for GCAQ4PH Colorado Presidents Challenge

[Resolved] Checker for GCAQ4PH Colorado Presidents Challenge
May 02, 2024 06:00PM
Requesting a checker for a new challenge that isn't published yet.
Requirements are to find geocaches these in counties in Colorado and/or the United States that correspond to the President's last name. In each county, users will need to find the number of caches which correspond to the President's number.

Washington County- 1 geocache
Adams County - 8 geocaches (for John #2 and John Quincy #6)
Jefferson County - 3 geocaches
Jackson County - 7 geocaches
Lincoln County - 16 geocaches
Garfield County - 20 geocaches

It was working then I tested it again and it's blank.

I just did a test with a top cacher and the checker is working. Please remember that checkers are case sensitive

thank you for creating this checker. Much appreciated. Just two minor suggestions. Can you add the names of the caches next to the GC codes?

Also, for the counties which fail, can you add how many geocaches are needed to meet the challenge?
For example, it currently shows:
"Fail: oz8118 has not yet found any groups of 7 or more different gccode for the same County.
To continue working on this challenge, try adding additional gccode to the following 1 County for which oz8118 already has 1 gccode"
County gccode
Jackson County GC37"

I'd like it to also show that I need 6 more caches for Jackson County

For a county which the cacher doesn't have any finds, it shows:

"Fail: oz8118 does not have any qualifying finds."

I'd like it to also show that I need ___ more caches for ___ County
For exmple, "you need to find 20 more caches for Garfield County."

I made some changes to the output within the possibilities of the script output
