FYI submitted for review this evening! Fingers crossed! Thanks for all the help. Now on to the others! Ianby hunthikers - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
AWESOME ! Thanks for the great work. I might be able to work on getting the cache published today.by hunthikers - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Ok thanks for the reply. I think the map output could be a cool way for cachers to see their finds in relation to the challenge, so if it happens great, but I will continue with the writing up the page. If I could get a new link to reset, I would certainly use it! Thanks again Dr Acorn! Ianby hunthikers - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Ok. A couple of questions... the cache title isn't appearing on the check page (just empty brackets) and does the checker get reset to zero for publication ? (it currently shows my development test counts). One other thought, do you think it would be possible to display the finds on a map in the checker result ? Thanks for all the help so far, I hope the get the first of the series publiby hunthikers - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Made the hide today. Is there anything else I need to do in terms of the cache page ? https://coord.info/GC93F87 Thanks for all the help!by hunthikers - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
I don't have a code just yet.... Let's go back to 30 points for now at least. I think this one is tough!by hunthikers - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Yes please... it's division 15 N limit 53.4796 S limit 49.5015 so difference = 3.9781 W limit 119.5331 E limit 114.0006 difference = 5.5325 I think the height range is 3520-996 so 2524m :) many thanks!by hunthikers - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Great! I think it's working well. Now to find a hide!by hunthikers - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
OK, not a bad idea. What do you think about something similar for age ? Could we compare oldest active to newest active to set the range ? I also have a question related to the divisions etc. Looking at the map on the project GC NSEW-oldest tool, the most N cache in this Alberta division 6 (Calgary) area as https://coord.info/GC1Q6KR at N 51 52.959 But when I look at the same map and folby hunthikers - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Re Alberta 4D checker for GC9391M (it needs a cousin) Since I don't quite qualify (yet = road trip required) for my Alberta 4D challenge, I am exploring a couple of variations, one for Calgary (division 6) and Canmore (division 15). So any chance I can get a modified version of this Alberta 4D checker for another challenge? It will be based on the following which I mined from the projby hunthikers - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Great work DrAcorn Here's a code : GC9391M Seems to work perfectly based on the testing so far :) I appreciate the work and now I have the added motivation for a road trip a few degrees to the E to reach the magic number and hence be able to get the challenge published. Am I right that it is working on physical caches only ? For example no earthcaches or virtuals etc. Best wishes IAby hunthikers - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Thank you DrAcorn! Looking good already! May be the youngest find isn't working quite right. The test of the checker shows the GC code for mine as from March 2020, but I have a find for a cache hidden Nov 2020 find (GC92G6P). The math based in the GC code shown wouldn't be right because it is less than 20 years...but for my youngest find it would be. So that needs a check to be suby hunthikers - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
I hope this message finds you well in these strange times. Best wishes. And thanks for supporting a way to get outside! I've been contemplating a challenge cache that I wondered if you could let me know if you think it would be possible to get a checker for it. I've read the guidelines, and I believe it should be. I did also reach out to a local reviewer and they thought it interestinby hunthikers - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
I'm a half glass full kind of person.... surely asking cachers to find a specific type of cache for a milestone marker is a positive thing (and not a punishment). I know many, many senior cachers who do this ! Aren't milestones on the GC pages... ? https://www.geocaching.com/my/statistics.aspxby hunthikers - ARCHIVE Checker requests (impossible)
I am looking for a checker based on having 5 different icons (cache types) in the milestone finds list. I have found many examples of caches of this type in various locations (e.g. US and UK) but none have a checker. I plan to add a cache of this type to the Calgary, Alberta, Canada area in the near future (my 5000th find will likely occur before the end of this year and I will be ensuring to getby hunthikers - ARCHIVE Checker requests (impossible)
