+MaxB on the River Posted June 22, 2021 Posted June 22, 2021 We are working on filling our D/T grid for the 5th time. Looked in Geocaching and it shows we have completed 5 times. However Project-GC has different totals, some higher, some lower and only shows 4 times. Why is there a difference. Looking at Lab and Locationless caches doesn't seem to solve the differences. The differences are throughout the grid. Quote
+ardila.nl Posted June 22, 2021 Posted June 22, 2021 Do you have a paid membership with PGC? because if not, PGC will only update your stats once a week Quote
+MaxB on the River Posted June 22, 2021 Author Posted June 22, 2021 Yes we have a premium membership to both GC and Project-GC. Quote
+ardila.nl Posted June 22, 2021 Posted June 22, 2021 I think you might be better of asking this in the PGC Q&A https://project-gc.com/qa/ As GC is leading and PGC just "downloads" the information using the API so they should be able to see why the difference is there Quote
+balu2003 Posted June 22, 2021 Posted June 22, 2021 what happens if an CO changes his D/T rating after a user has logged? Is the database (grid) build up, when the user logs a cache otherwise, the service must reload every cache a user has logged and must use the actual D/T rating for building the grid. you have 5 found caches with D/T 1/4.5https://www.geocaching.com/play/search?fb=MaxB on the River&a=0&difficulty=1.0&terrain=4.5&asc=true check D/T rating by opening the cache listings, all 5 caches have 1/4.5 -> pgc is wrong Quote
+MaxB on the River Posted June 22, 2021 Author Posted June 22, 2021 Thank you balu2003, I hadn't thought to search my finds with the specific D/T rating. I wonder what happens if a challenge checker will recognize the current GC caches. Quote

+sloth96 Posted July 11, 2021 Posted July 11, 2021 You might care to look at this page on project-gc. https://project-gc.com/Tools/DTHistory Also take advantage of the self support option on project-gc to update all your finds. Quote
