If you like the way it behaves we can Clone it for your cache. If you don't like it we can move on.by sloth96 - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
@Las Vegas Bones You can use the self support feature to update your logs on projectgc and thereby the checker.by sloth96 - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)

Your best choice is to look up who tagged and and work with them. They have the easiest option. As the technical part, there usually is an excluded type configuration for a tag that can fix this.by sloth96 - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Ok. The script is up. Search terms oldest and country should help you find it. We started with the simple oldest active in a country metric for the challenge. However the reviewer felt the language about past finds counting included finds on caches that were now archived that may have been the oldest active on the day they were found. As the projectgc api does not have a good way of doing thaby sloth96 - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
There was a bunch of back and forth with the reviewer. I think we are all trying to figure this out, Co's, scripters, taggers, and reviewers.by sloth96 - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Howdy, I am currently writing just such a script for "https://www.geocaching.com/geocache/GC6K6ZV_old-timer-country-silver-rm-challenge-142" Our earlier implementation was based on bookmark lists and this was frowned upon by the reviewer. We are currently updating it. The interpretation we were told to go with is any cache older than the current oldest active should qualify. Tby sloth96 - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Howdy, Is there an example of a polygon file available for comparison? I created one to have for GC1FAMD and match their existing tool in GSAK. I would like to make sure it is in the same form as needed. Also how long should the PGC support system take to respond? I put in an e-mail a few days ago and have not heard back.by sloth96 - Script development
Excludedisabled should probably be true. The issue I am trying to resolve is retired guy is over 100% in st. Martin. Disabled was just an attempt to fix it. On further inspection is appears a cache he adopted after finding it might be the problem. This suggests something is not honoring the excludeowned filter. It could be fixed in the same fashion as archive and disabled are. This liby sloth96 - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
I completed my first script based on Target's All in a Region. The Links are <a href="http://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC5KM2D/21950">Project-GC Challenge checker</a> <a href="http://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC5KM3B/21951">Project-GC Challenge checker</a> Some further debugging may be required. Feedback is appreciated.by sloth96 - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
These are grandfathered caches as the challenge predates the challenge hiatus. Also note the caches are already published. While I understand this could move things down the priority list, the comments were it is an easy change to an existing script .by sloth96 - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Is there something blocking this checker I can assist with?by sloth96 - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
http://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC5KQP8/7827 appears to be correctly scoring that I have qualified for the challenge. However there is no difficulty score and is not noticing that I have found the cache. Since the user scoring appears correct, it does not seem like a tag or script issue. Thanks.by sloth96 - Miscellaneous
Target, Thanks for the quick and dirty attempt. It is unfortunate that did not scratch the itch. I hope the next version is works out better. Thanks Sloth96by sloth96 - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)

PWCinPC Just to give you an idea of what it would look like. I tagged Target's script to show you what 500000 between caches would look like: Here is what such a checker would look like. It would be much more stringent than your existing measures. If you look at going to the moon caches GC3EH8R measures things your way and I easily qualify. GC5KKKF uses Targets script and also takeby sloth96 - ARCHIVE Checker requests (impossible)
Thanks for pointing out the language difference between the two caches. Putting both in one post muddled the issue. I completely understand the issue with not having the past data available. Not having that data would make the checker more stringent than the challenge. I would be ok tagging that. You may feel differently. I don't think the co would disagree with me.

Hello, I am looking to tag a script for GC5KM2D Completing a Country and it's close cousin GC5KM3B Completing Two Countries. The requirements are to find all active caches in one and two countries respectively. The closest script I have been able to find is 100% cacher by mole125.
