Deleting ALC steps still considered as completed

[+yxza]

Hello,

sometimes, especially after GS has come up with some strange requirements for getting a souvenir e.g. I want do delete all steps in a newly completed ALC in order to complete it at another date. The deletion of the step is ok, but the problem is that the ALC is still marked as completed in the app so there is no possibilty of restarting it. It also shows up in https://labs.geocaching.com/ as completed but with zero steps done.Seems to me as a strange situation. probably different databases that keep track of what's done, logged and given the right answers. Would it be possible to synch the databases better?

No can do. You cannot redo an adventure Lab at another date on the same account.

 

From the Help Center:

Delete an Adventure find 

Visit your Adventure finds page.

Select Delete on the Adventure find you want to delete.

Note: Deleting a find for an Adventure decreases your find count on Geocaching.com but does not remove the find from the Adventure Lab® app. It is currently not possible to remove a find from the Adventure Lab® app.

Perhaps this is something they are working on. For various reasons, I doubt it. But currently it is not possible to "re-do" a particular Adventure stage under an account that has already completed the stage:
