Is there a proof-of-concept script that shows mapping Countries, Regions, and Counties.? I cannot see how to map countries with the new API calls now.by sloth96 - Checker news
@rüganer26 Have you been able to contact your reviewer?by sloth96 - ARCHIVE Checker requests (impossible)
There is no PGC api call to check on the surrounding caches. This seems quite unlikely.by sloth96 - ARCHIVE Checker requests (impossible)
This checker checks that the separation is met. It does not search but the most recent finders do not need the search. https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GCY1YP/60912by sloth96 - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Does this look right to you for your caching? 2019-03-02 France GC7TQMM 852.161554 2019-02-14 Vatican City State GC30H3P 1021.647001 2016-03-18 Togo GC4ZH64 4734.390381 2018-01-17 Russia GC29FNR 1653.854336 2018-02-13 Malta GC63JN3 1689.817209 2018-01-31 Taiwan GC3WTGA 9031.639529 2018-02-19 Germany GC10AZC 441.333034 2019-02-15 Italy GC65QWC 1035.34511 2017-03-28 Poland GC5BC0G 321.71by sloth96 - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Can you confirm it works now?by sloth96 - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
zmijovkar owns GCQYQY and GCKBH1. The logic assumed if you owned it you could not find it. This but should be fixed.by sloth96 - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
I am also wondering if this has to do with the Repolygoning of project-gc announced here https://project-gc.com/Home/News. My local database is disagreeing on the list of the oldest caches in Tabor. I need to get that figured out.by sloth96 - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Can you check if the finder placed or is the co for a cache that old?by sloth96 - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Have you reached out to Dr. Acorn directly? The Dr. would have the easiest time adding that filter.by sloth96 - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Sounds like we are done.by sloth96 - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)

I saw this post and missed the message. That is a straightforward change. Are you going to be updating the challenge description to exclude locationless caches?by sloth96 - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Oh I just noticed something. The 2 countries in a day are allowed. Are 80 countries in a single day allowed? I think my best is 5 countries in a day. If that is so, that makes it much simpler because it is just finding the maximum in that 80 day window for each country. The need to deconflict countries and dates is eliminated.by sloth96 - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
I am still trying to figure out how to make this fast enough for users with many countries on many days.by sloth96 - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
My understanding that the interpretation vogelbird is citing comes from an interpretation of the "Challenge cache criteria must be based upon the type of log, not on the log content." You may or may not like the interpretation, but for the team writing checkers, we try not to write checkers we expect will be rejected. If the reviewer posts they will approve the challenge once the cheby sloth96 - ARCHIVE Checker requests (impossible)
Just to make sure I understand, Pick an 80 day window. (still not sure how to handle leap years) Find some number of days less than 80 where sum of distances is greater than the 40k number above. Distance is defined as distance to a found cache in a country from the home point above on that date. Cannot reuse a country in that 80 day window. Before worrying too much about the implementaby sloth96 - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Just thinking more aloud, doing the 80 days in a year sounds easier to implement. the 80 "consecutive" days have an issue around leap years. Do they need to do a Feb 29 or not for Feb 28 and Mar 1 to be connected? Probably easier to just grab the 80 longest days.by sloth96 - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Forgive me for not completely understanding your vision. My intial read is : Any number of caches, over a period of 80 consecutive month, day pairs of the 366 with the distance between them being one trip around the world. Have you given any thought as to how distances would combine if say someone had caches on May 1, 2010, and May 1, 2011? Or are you saying use only one each day monthby sloth96 - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
So at one point I made a custom version of the script that would close them automatically if they were unclosed. We can experiment with that.by sloth96 - Miscellaneous
Interesting. Sumbloke are you going to close the polygons or should I work on that?by sloth96 - Miscellaneous
Please forgive my confusion. There seem to be two lines you are referring to. "polyset": "Delorme_TX", "region": "Texas", Both of those were defined by the system. The Delorme_TX polyset was not created by me. The region I believe is part of the project-gc metadata filter.by sloth96 - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
I did not create the county boundaries. They seemed to be provided by the infrastructure as did the delorme polygons.by sloth96 - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Text is changed to be more inline with reviewer request. Also grammar and spelling is now better. Archived caches older than the current oldest are included as reviewers have insisted on this under the "past finds count" rule.by sloth96 - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Hiwdy. Can you provide a test case of the result you dont like and what the correct result would be? Thanksby sloth96 - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
I will get something up this weekend.by sloth96 - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Pommieparkin2 We need a gc code for your cache. Otherwise we would like to remove this from our queue. Cheers.by sloth96 - ARCHIVE Checker requests (impossible)
Yes this should be fine. When you have a cache ready please submit a request.by sloth96 - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
This should be fixed now.by sloth96 - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
