Does the problem still exist? It seems that all of the checkers you listed no longer throw an error for frabie1.by Oneforfortytwo - Miscellaneous
I created a new checker for this challenge: https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC53YNH/43768 Please let me know if you have any feedback/suggestions. I will contact the script writer and see if only the finds by the common CO can be listed.by Oneforfortytwo - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
QuoteHidden Legends - In the Jasmer part of the checker there is a 100% tag in a field called 'leeway'. Just for the understanding, does this mean 100% of the 204month streak? Is it therefore possible the checker could check if somebody has just 200 of the 204 by changing this? Normally, the Jasmer checker looks for finds in every month between the start and end date. The leeway parby Oneforfortytwo - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Here is a checker for you to test: https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC8A0EA/43690 A couple of notes: -I assume you meant "hidden date," not "hidden month." -As you noted, finds on February 29th are not allowed. The checker will say you have 366 days completed if you do. -You are one month short of qualifying on the Jasmer part, but I assume you are intending to comby Oneforfortytwo - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Here is a checker for you to test: https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC42TZA/43677 It seems to pick up on the cache you mentioned the other checker not catching, but let me know if you have any feedback/suggestions.by Oneforfortytwo - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Here is a checker for you to test: https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC89YEX/43639 I assumed that you meant the day you found a cache, not the day it was hidden. Also, I assumed that you meant only one find per date. Please let me know if you have any feedback/suggestions.by Oneforfortytwo - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
It is definitely possible to get the distance of the furthest cache from home. Here is a script that does it: https://project-gc.com/Tools/Challenges?edit&scriptId=1305&addTag Though, it may not work for all users (some of them might not have home coordinates set), so that might have to be accounted for somehow.by Oneforfortytwo - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
You are correct that the checker doesn't include the geographic requirement (and probably should be removed). However, creating a checker for this challenge is difficult for the following reasons: 1) The current checker looks for the words mentioned in the description. However, these are only a few of the many possible words that the CO might accept. Given that you can only use each wordby Oneforfortytwo - ARCHIVE Checker requests (impossible)
The last time this issue appeared, it was decided that too many scripts were affected, and the changes were reverted (see above). Now, the problem has popped up again, so it looks like the changes were reinstated. I am wondering why that is the case, since now my script and many others in the above lists are no longer working again.by Oneforfortytwo - Checker news
I am getting the "region/county filter used without country" error again on checkers. For example: https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC3E9QJ/40473 For challenges such as these, like pieterix said, regions from all countries are accepted, so a specific country cannot be specified. Could this be fixed?by Oneforfortytwo - Checker news

This would require access to a user's home coordinates, which is not possible in challenge checkers, as far as I can tell.by Oneforfortytwo - ARCHIVE Checker requests (impossible)
The requester recently had a similar cache published: https://project-gc.com/forum/read?11,29745 I created a checker for this challenge using the one from the other cache: https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC89VRT/43554 Please let me know if you have any feedback/suggestions.by Oneforfortytwo - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
I see. I misunderstood your request. Sorry about that.by Oneforfortytwo - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Unfortunately, I don't think this type of challenge is allowed under the guidelines. Specifically: "Not finding caches: design that limits or punishes any element of finding caches." In this case, people would be hurt by finding caches with low terrain ratings. See GC76MRZ, which was archived by Geocaching HQ for violating the rule I cited above two days after publication.by Oneforfortytwo - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
In this case, it would be the latter. There doesn't seem to be a way to access NEWS data in challenge checker scripts. The only way I can see to create the checker would be to hardcode in all.of the required caches for each county. However, maintaing this would not really be feasible.by Oneforfortytwo - ARCHIVE Checker requests (impossible)
I'm not sure if a checker can be written for this challenge. Looking into it. However, I think you should check with your reviewer and see if they would be willing to publish the challenge first.by Oneforfortytwo - ARCHIVE Checker requests (impossible)
Looks like the bug was fixed. The scripts seem to be running again.by Oneforfortytwo - Miscellaneous
Here is a checker for you to test: https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC7XJRY/42916 Please let us know if you have any feedback/suggestions. I should note that cachers have reported problems in getting this type of challenge published due to the events requirement (I assume because events now must have a difficulty of 1). So, that part may have to be changed, depending on what your reviewerby Oneforfortytwo - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Technically, this would be possible. However, requiring finds on leap day is not allowed under the challenge checker guidelines.by Oneforfortytwo - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC87JQG/42739 It should show up under Tools -> Challenges -> My scripts and tags. I found it using Find checker, but I had to unselect the United States as the country in order for it to show up. Also, the title will update automatically when the cache is published.by Oneforfortytwo - Miscellaneous
I don't think this is possible, since it would require access to home coordinates. The current checker works because it uses data from a badge, but this wouldn't be applicable to your proposal.by Oneforfortytwo - ARCHIVE Checker requests (impossible)
This would still require a certain number of caches to be found within a single day, which is not allowed under the guidelines.by Oneforfortytwo - ARCHIVE Checker requests (impossible)

I was creating a checker for another Michigan challenge and decided to take a crack at this one as well: https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC3N57R/40050 Please test the script and let me know if you have any feedback/suggestions.by Oneforfortytwo - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)

Here is a checker for you to test: https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC81ZHZ/39898 It seems to work properly for types. The output for sizes looks reasonable, but you may want to independently verify the results to make sure that there are no bugs. I couldn't figure out a good way to assign images to sizes, so they all use the traditional cache image at the moment (I am open to suggby Oneforfortytwo - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Yes, it will automatically update. May take a little while, though.by Oneforfortytwo - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
The checker automatically excludes archived caches. I just ran it, and Horse Hollow showed up in the seventh spot on the list.by Oneforfortytwo - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
