Geocaching.com and project-gc stats show that I have 100 finds in March. Checker lists 100 finds. But checker says I do not fulfill challenge.

It looks like you got the checker to go green so congratulations on completing the challenge.  That's what it took is to find 1 cache and the challenge itself did the trick.  I like the simple solutions.  Have fun caching.

As the checker is written, it requires more than the number of finds given in the limit to return OK, not just equal. Since you have exactly 100 finds in March, that affects you.

All checkers are created by volunteers. When there are problems with individual checkers, you should contact the person who has created it (listed as "tagged by" on the checker page) and ask them to adjust their checker.

I ran the checker with your profile and mine.  Yes, it did work for mine but failed on yours.

There is still time left in March, I would suggest going out and finding and logging another 2 or 3 caches before the month expires.  Then, rerun the checker.  If it still fails to accept you as completing the challenge, then, it might be worth reaching out to the author of the challenge script.  Good luck.

Have you checked that you do not have Labcaches included.

You need 101 "real" geocaches.

But the challenge is to find at least "100" caches. And all of the caches listed are real caches as lab caches have no GC code.

Your result is updated at the time not all your results were processed
