Recently caches in Switzerland were re-organised by GC. As you know there are 26 cantons ('states') in Switzerland, some of which used to be combined to a total of 10 regions whereas now caches are fully broken down to cantons. Some names seem to have been allocated twice in the process (German and French). I noted two effects:

- I have re-defined my PQs to contain the same cantons the earlier regions had but still do get a lower number of caches;

- Some checkers do not work correctly at the moment. One of them is GC369P0 - Challenge: Alle Kantone der Schweiz (all cantons of Switzerland) which I clearly fulfil but currently the checker does not tell me so. The map display on PGC is correct.

Anyone experiencing the same? Am I right in thinking this reorganisation is being looked at?

Thanks anyway for the great site...

- Pocket queries are a Groundspeak feature and have nothing to do with Project-GC. I'm afraid we can't help with that.

- magma1447 (site owner) has created a thread in the checker forums about the changes to Switzerland's regions, including the results of a search through scripts and tags which may be impacted. If you have issues about a specific checker, it's probably best to get in touch with the tagger using the envelope icon next to "Tagged by xxxx" on the checker page.
Thank you for your response. Indeed I noted the checker thread meanwhile and either way I have identified a workaround for me.
