I recently got more into challenges and thought about creating an own one. As the rules are quite tight regarding challenges, I asked a reviewer beforehand and simply got the feedback "Nope, not possible".
Going through the rules I guess he is referring to the part:
I would like to understand why it is forbidden to have a challenge using starting letters of a cache title or the starting letter of the name of an owner (Note: I think you can change your own name never or only once)
My original idea for the challenge was to ask for: complete your ABC soup for at least 6 of 9 categories (categories would be: Webcam, Virtual, Tradi, Myst, Multi, EC, WIG, LBH, Events, Owners) and to have just the first letter in use for each category.
To be honest I am not a wide and far travelling cacher, but I complete 6 of those 9 categories within 10 years of caching and the majority of the caches found in my country.
Could someone enlighten me why there was a ban on that?
