I'll do that when I get back from lunch. Which gccode?by sumbloke - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
In responding to a checker request ( http://project-gc.com/forum/read?8,7715 ), I discovered that Ontario has a county "Haldimand-Norfolk" listed, which appears to be an old division which only existed until 2000. It should be separate counties "Haldimand" and "Norfolk" Can the polygons for Ontario be fixed, please?by sumbloke - Checker news
Here are the first two: http://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC71D60/25166 http://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC71D66/25167 Project-GC lists a single "Haldimand-Norfolk" county and does not separate them, so the other two would not be possible without Project-GC changing their county polygons. Wikipedia indicates that that merged county existed from 1974 until 2000, so the separate countby sumbloke - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Here is a checker: http://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC718FP/25101 I'm going to tweak the output a bit to give the list of counties, but that tag will continue to be the one.by sumbloke - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
"At sea" is rather vague and would probably have to use a custom polygon (which is not allowed under the new guidelines). I would suggest that for something similar, you do it based on the attributes "May require swimming" and/or "Scuba gear" (you have one of each, possibly on the same cache). Also possibly "May require wading" which you have 31.by sumbloke - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
I see one thing wrong with it. Two of the types listed are no longer available, so it doesn't meet guideline 8: Attainable.by sumbloke - ARCHIVE Checker requests (impossible)
We can't make checkers for these sort of challenges. As the READ FIRST thread states: The checkers does not have access to logs from others on the geocaches logged. Therefore a challenge to log a geocaches that hasn't been logged for one year isn't possible.by sumbloke - ARCHIVE Checker requests (impossible)
Here you go: http://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC6NG9Y/25017 Please let me know if it is suitable. By the way, I excluded Locationless (Reverse) Caches from the country sub-challenges. Let me know if you want them to count.by sumbloke - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Yeah, I see you have a bunch logged for yesterday and today on geocaching.com. Your most recent find that PGC knows about is GC70Q34 Data Compression (you can use http://project-gc.com/Challenges//22123 to see which finds PGC knows about) so presumably you logged the others after the last retrieval from GC.by sumbloke - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Here you go: http://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC70T8T/24999 You come in at 89 at the moment. Good luck in meeting the challenge yourself. Please let me know if it is suitable.by sumbloke - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)

Lab caches are not only not able to be checked, they are not allowed as challenge conditions. http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=206#criteria For the checker, do you want the specific set of 10 other types, or would you allow any 10 types? I can tag a script either way.by sumbloke - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
We are a group of volunteers, so do not have any administrative control. Someone has marked this as a work in progress, they would be the only one who could really comment on how it is going. As far as doing it yourself, PGC have decided not to allow new script writers at the moment.by sumbloke - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Here you go: http://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC709Y5/24783 Please confirm it is suitable.by sumbloke - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
20 caches with 20 FP and 6 types is exactly the same conditions as GC461HR, so I just copied that tag: http://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC707G3/24782 Please confirm it is suitable. I was going to say you needed to contact the previous tagger to have that checker removed, but it was me so I've done that already.by sumbloke - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
GC706V8 -L&PSR Trail 4 Star Challenge Also not allowed, due to guideline 14 http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=206#positiveCriteria Not acceptable Not finding caches: design that limits or punishes any element of finding caches.

Tag has been updated as requestedby sumbloke - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
I have tagged it as requested: http://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC6K2PW/24737 However, it says you have only found one matching cache. You need to qualify for your own challenge before you can have the cache published.by sumbloke - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Yes, I have updated the same tag.by sumbloke - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Limited now to physical cache types. For clarity, this means Traditional, Unknown, Multi, Letterbox Hybrid, Wherigo, Project APE and Geocaching HQ.by sumbloke - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
There is and I've adjusted the distance restrictions on my tag to match. That cache allows 100 to 100.5 miles. It also only allows physical cache types, did you want that restriction too?by sumbloke - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Do you mean two finds with a minimum of 100 miles between them? If so: http://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC707G3/24733by sumbloke - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Okay, I'll remove mine then. It's a script based on the one vogelbird used.by sumbloke - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Would this suit you?: http://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC705HE/24710by sumbloke - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Hi vogelbird, It looks like you tagged this for three different rows or columns. I interpreted the wording of the request as being the D3 row or the T3 column. Meaning that the entire challenge is for a single row/column/diagonal going through the centre cell. @londonwesty: can you confirm which way you intended the criteria?by sumbloke - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Here you go: http://project-gc.com/Challenges/GC700EJ/24614 Please confirm it is suitable.by sumbloke - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
Finding a percentage of caches is not allowed under the new challenge guidelines http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=206#percentageOfCaches You could specify a number of caches to be found, which could correspond to roughly 75% of the current active caches.by sumbloke - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
I've updated my enhancement of Target.'s Multiple test checker script to incorporate the updated calendar checker code. So multiple test checkers using my script will have the updated output.by sumbloke - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
The output is not clear, but it does not require the 29th of February to be filled.by sumbloke - ARCHIVE Checker requests (completed)
