I've added this change in the original script. What happened way back was that I wrote the calendar script, then Target wrote a multitest script and asked me to restructure my script so he could reuse parts of it there (which I did), then my code spread from there. I'm not aware of more people reusing my script directly.by pinkunicorn - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
I know there are people out there who have found all year 2000 caches. They'll just have to hope that they found at least one on each day of the week...by pinkunicorn - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Looks good. Thanks!by pinkunicorn - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Hi! I need three similar checkers. The user needs to have logged a certain number of cache type/county combos so each county may count for several points as long as the finds are of different types. All finds are limited to Sweden. GCBE38H - 200 type/county combos GCBE38K - 400 type/county combos GCBE38N - 800 type/county combos Thanks!by pinkunicorn - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
I fail to find a checker script that can test for full calendar with at least X FP per date (using one or several caches). It feels like this would be something that someone has already done so I suspect I'm just bad at searching. If you know of a script that handles this, let me know! (If it doesn't exist I guess I'll add it to mine eventually...)by pinkunicorn - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Your checker says that I qualify, but since the output is humongous it fails to tell me in which region since the output is truncated before it got to the one that was successful.by pinkunicorn - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
The new guidelines says "no additional criteria", so it's no longer possible to require country, region, county, terrain or anything else for an event challenge. The only thing you can specify are number of attended logs and which type of event (Event Cache or CITO).by pinkunicorn - ARCHIVE Checker requests (impossible)

Note that for some time now, events are limited to D1. Thus, only one event can be used for this challenge anyway, if I understand the requirements correctly.by pinkunicorn - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)

As I understand the translation from Catalan, this needs eight logs on unique caches where each contains one letter of the town name VALLMOLL. 1 for L and 0 for O.by pinkunicorn - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)

Would it be possible to tag a checker for the old challenge https://coord.info/GC4QG4Y? To qualify, you need to log a cache in three different countries on the same day. You need to do this on three different occasions, and the countries need to be different each time (so in total nine countries).by pinkunicorn - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
That will happen automatically once your cache is published.by pinkunicorn - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
You need special rights to be able to create your own checkers, but once you have that you can write and test checkers as you like. In order to apply for the needed rights, write to Project-GC support.by pinkunicorn - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Checker writers can't see unpublished caches, so you need to supply your challenge requirements.by pinkunicorn - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Yes, that would work fine.by pinkunicorn - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
It doesn't matter which time period you try to limit the finds to. "within a 12 month period" is still a time period, and thus not allowed in a challenge.by pinkunicorn - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)

Challenges about contiguous counties or states are not allowed. (Your idea about all counties adjacent to AZ can still be done, though, just that you need to explicitly list which counties are needed. It is a fixed list, not any random set of contiguous counties.)

Actually, items #4 and #5 are not valid. From the challenge cache guidelines: QuoteFor cache pages published after April 21, 2015 with a challenge checker, the owner can confirm the finder's qualification with the checker when the cache is logged as found. No further documentation is required from the finder. You can still of course request that the checker outputs the information in #4by pinkunicorn - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
I can confirm that that cache changed its name from Wheel See to the current name (via a third name), with the initial W disappearing 2018-06-01.by pinkunicorn - ARCHIVE Checker requests (impossible)
Yes, the cache name will automatically update on the checker once the challenge is published (and Project-GC has had time to notice the publication).by pinkunicorn - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)

It is technically possible, but it's not allowed by the challenge guidelines to have the possible finds restricted to a specific list of caches in this way.by pinkunicorn - ARCHIVE Checker requests (impossible)
