Seems like at least those two scripts are using GetSimplifiedRegionPolygons() for something completely different than its meant for. I knew about this method when I made this release, and I knew it would stop working, but I didn't think it was used. I will implement a new method that actually does what these scripts wants.

Just realized there are a few checkers that's broken due to outdated JSON files used with PGC.GetJsonData(). Got a report about https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC43JTY/29431 (by sloth96) for example. There are probably more of them. I could try to backup all the json files tomorrow and run a script that automatically replaces those names we believe are safe to automatic update. However,by magma1447 - Checker news

I am preparing for a release for tomorrow (Wednesday). If something unexpected happens or shows up it might be delayed with one more day. The above link with updated names (difference between now and future) has been updated (several times).

As you already know we are updating polygon data from time to time. Next time, will be a huge update, causing a lot of issues. All the code behind polygons is being updated, it has been an ongoing project for a year! I am finally starting to see the end of things which leads me to this post.

This should now be resolved. Besides the minor bug I found last time I also learned that web browsers had changed their default in cookie handling. Formerly an image loaded at a third party domain could use cookies at the origin site (samesite=None). The new default for the cookie option samesite is Lax which doesn't allow that. We have been forced to set the value samesite=None for our cby magma1447 - Miscellaneous
Now I have looked into it, at least a bit, and I have some guesses. This is a client side caching issue. The origin fault is however the server side. I found a minor bug when creating an "etag" for these images. So in some cases when not being logged in with Project-GC the client would cache these images in a faulty way.

I'll be updating Polygons on Cyprus today. The current data is from February 2017 and seems incomplete. Actually, the data is correct, but Geocaching isn't. Cyprus is an island. Two parts of the island are army bases belonging to Britain(?). Not important. What is important is that geocaches in these areas also has the country Cyprus set at Geocaching.com, therefore we have to includby magma1447 - Checker news
Another suggestion is to send a PM to the one who created the tag. Since the creator of the tag probably has contact with the CO in this forum, he (or she) can try to write in that thread, to get the CO to add the attribute. If the attribute isn't added with 7 days the tag would get disabled automatically by the system. There could also be a "Post NA log at specific geocache in Prby magma1447 - Miscellaneous

A suggestion from me. Instead of sending a PM to the checker creator and disabling the checker I could create a list of with all known issues. Checker developers could then go through this list and click either "disable checker" or "Create NA log (with Project-GC's account and pre-determined text)". PMs could then be sent when there are items on the list, similar toby magma1447 - Miscellaneous
As pieterix mentioned, I recently discovered an issue when creating the PMs where it didn't always send all PMs. I don't recall the details, but it was something with overwriting my own data before it was sent. It still disabled everything it was supposed to though. That was fixed a few days ago, or maybe a week, I don't recall. The next issue is that there are a lot of tags getby magma1447 - Miscellaneous

If they have the challenge attribute that's probably why. There seems to be a lot of COs adding the Challenge attribute when they shouldn't. I assume because they like to mess things up, but in some cases it might be because they don't understand better. I am waiting on HQs answer how that should be handled.

What's done regarding multiple checkers is that the newest gets removed if they are identical. Identical means same script and a config that's identical after doing json_encode(json_decode(config)). So, just switching order of the options will make them different. It would be hard to automatically determine which is best if there is more than one. There can also be reasons for havingby magma1447 - Challenge checker exceptions
Due to some really great users there are already zero exceptions that needs voting. So I will enable the scheduled job sending PMs when it's needed. Also, now when the exceptions are in place I could test the scheduled job that automatically disables faulty checker tags. It found one tag, it was a crap tag on a traditional. So that seems correct.

There are still two scheduled jobs that are disabled, one of them is the one sending PMs to users to vote. I am waiting a few days to see if I get any negative feedback on my purges/cleansing.
