Thanks for updating the tag. In the meantime I have updated the cache listing and explicitly mentioned that locationless caches are excluded and not counted for meeting the challenge. Some geocachers already took advantage of this loophole.by GeoLash - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Thanks, Vogelbird. I have contacted sloth96 anyway as some geocachers will be able to find (and use) the old checker/tag still. You may close this request now.by GeoLash - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)

Hi, I was made aware that people qualify for challenge cache GC7115P if they have logged a locationless cache like GC8FR0G or GC8NEAT which are located in Seattle. Can the checker be improved in such a way that locationless caches are excluded? Profile name to check with is Theodd1. Thanks in advance.

Hi vogelbird, I have tested the challenge checker and it seems to be working fine. Thanks, once again. Best regards, GeoLashby GeoLash - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Thanks, vogelbird. The challenge checker works fine. Best regards, GeoLashby GeoLash - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Hi vogelbird, thanks for your explanation. Labcaches are always a bit troublesome in statistics, but I understand your reasoning. I will make a note in my listing that labcaches are not counted because of this time difference. You can close this thread. Regards, GeoLashby GeoLash - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)

Hi, for my current challenge checker related to GC6Y9ZB I noticed labcaches are not taken into account. It is possible to include labcaches in the finds? https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC6Y9ZB/24311 Looking forward to your reply. Thanks in advance.by GeoLash - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Hi, I would like to place a new challenge cache GC8Y1CF requiring: at least 100 finds of geocaches with both the attributes "Special Tool Required" and "No Tree Climbing Required". The challenge is about having to find caches where a fishing rod (or similar tool) it to be used to retrieve caches out of a tree. Can you please create a challenge checker for this? Many thanks inby GeoLash - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Hi, I would like to place a new challenge cache GC8Y1C9 requiring: at least 50 finds of geocaches with the attribute "Hunting area". I have found exactly 100 caches with the hunting-area attribute myself. Can you please create a challenge checker for this? Many thanks in advance.by GeoLash - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)

Hi, I would like to place a new challenge cache GC8WARV requiring: at least 25 finds of geocaches with the attribute "No dogs" i.e. the negative attribute. The cache will be hidden inside a post with a 'no dogs allowed' street sign, hence the request. I have found over 100 caches with the no-dogs attribute myself. Can you please create a challenge checker for this? Many thankby GeoLash - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Too bad. Thank for your fast reply. You can close the topic now.by GeoLash - ARCHIVE Checker requests (impossible)
Hi vogelbird, I'm very sorry, I overlooked these criteria to be not allowed. What about a challenge requiring a specific number of cache types per cache owner, would that be allowed? Looking at "These cache page elements: cache titles, cache owner, GC Codes, publishing Reviewer, or cache page text." I expect it will not be. Can you confirm?

Hi, I would like to request a new challenge checker for geocache GC88VY3. I am aware that home coordinates are not allowed to be used, so I want to create a challenge based on the published coords of GC88VY3 and the histogram classes as indicated below: - at minimum one cache found less than 1 km away from GC88VY3 coordinates and - at minimum one cache found at least 1 km but less than 10 km fby GeoLash - ARCHIVE Checker requests (impossible)
I have referred to the new checker tag in my challenge cache, so this request can be closed. Thanks for your help!by GeoLash - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Hi mole125, The original checker still does not work fine for some profile names like moose61, Hoentjes, jobi44. For others like GeoLash it does not produce an error message. So the error is depending on the profile name and appears recently as jobi44 ran the original checker without issues on March 7, but now it throws the exception error. Best regards, GeoLashby GeoLash - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Thanks vogelbird, the new script produces different output but works as well to check challenge qualification. Should I have contacted the original script writer instead?by GeoLash - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Hi, the challenge checker for cache GC7180M (25106) is not working correctly for some profile names. If I run the checker with my name "GeoLash", "ASS3755" or "MNPD" then the output is fine, but with profile name "moose61", "Hoentjes" or "jobi44" the checker returns an error message as shown below. This is happening since recently. Canby GeoLash - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Yes, this works as intended. I will use the checker in my challenge cache.by GeoLash - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Thanks for the fast response. The checker still lacks two bands: <0 meter and >2000 meter. See also my request about how to possibly achieve that.by GeoLash - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Hi, I would like to place a challenge cache (GC7180M) based on the elevation of found caches. I did find a script that can be used, but the elevation bands are different from what I have in mind. Can you please create a checker based on script 'Elevation/Altitude bands' (by ShammyLevva) with the bands listed below (ref Challenges/GC6Z6KY/24215)? No lower limit (< 0 meters) and noby GeoLash - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Thanks, the challenge checker fulfills the requirements. I will use it for my challenge cache. Great job!by GeoLash - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
I do get an error message while checking a non-qualifying account ('CapraIbex96' or 'ivel inc'): Array ( => 111 => bad argument #1 to 'TableInsert' (table expected, got boolean) )by GeoLash - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Thank you, sloth96, this script is suitable to check the challenge criteria. Two minor remarks: 1-The challenge is fulfilled if at least the minimum distance is reached, so please use 'greater than or equal to' (if totaldist >= conf.mindist*1000 then) 2-Please show the output also if the geocacher does not reach the minimum distance, so he can see how far off he is.by GeoLash - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Apologies, I had read the ReadMe first but did not realize this would require the home coordinates. Too bad, but can I submit another checker request instead in this thread? I expect this does one not require the home coordinates. On the GC profile statistics page the coördinates of the most Northern, Southern, Eastern and Western finds are mentioned. I would like to have a checker for a challenby GeoLash - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Hi, I was looking for a challenge checker to verify whether geocachers have found at least 1 cache in every distance range as shown on the profile statistics page below Distance to Finds. Can you clone or create one for me? I have fulfilled the challenge myself. Many thanks in advance. at least 1 find < 1 km and at least 1 find 1 km to 10 km and at least 1 find 10 km to 25 km and at leastby GeoLash - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Thank you, sloth96, this script works as intended by me. I have tested it with more than 10 geocacher profiles. I will use it for my challenge cache.by GeoLash - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Hi, can you please create a checker for my challenge cache GC70QN3? The challenge aims to have cachers find caches in other countries, to be more specific: at least 1000 caches in other countries besides the country with most finds (which is usually the home country). Looking at the statistics page to "Caches You've Found in the World" a list is shown "You have cached in <by GeoLash - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
