Best answer

I made a new checker https://project-gc.com/Challenges/GCTJYG/59865 but this did not solve the problem.

Eventually I found out that the boundary data for the US at the moment is from "TIGER data" from census.gov.

This is causing a mismatch between the mapdata and cache data 

https://coord.info/GC936F is according to de cache data in United States / Kansas / Morton County (KS)

However, it's likely that PGC will switch to using OSM data for USA as well the coming months.

There is a mismatch in the boundary data, the checker does not allow for the latest OSM data. After Eastern I will check if I have the correct DeLorme data and make a new checker for you
