Talk:Country Badges

1 region or 1 found

Technically one could have 1 found in a country without having found 1 region in the country. For example Denmark has 10 caches that currently don't belong to a region in Project-GC as can be seen in a Caches per Area search for Denmark, there are a couple of more countries with similar issues even if it's more common to have this problem on county level and not region level. Is this rare enough that it makes sense to simplify the requirement on the wiki, or should it say "1 find in the country" or similar instead of "1 region"? --Pleu (4523550) (talk) 15:47, 26 January 2022 (CET)

Depends. If you found one of those 10 caches, and nothing else, would you get the bronze badge even if you hadn't found any regions? Optimist on the run (6278087) (talk) 19:50, 26 January 2022 (CET)

The code currently requires a "region" to be found to get the badge, not a find in general. The issue with only requiring a find and rewarding a bronze badge for that, is when the user then makes another find in another area of the country. The user will still then only have 1 region found, and still have the region badge. I think it works decent as it is now. The other way would also be decent, but slightly worse in my opinion. Both solutions are "bad". :) --magma1447 (3305483) (talk) 19:54, 26 January 2022 (CET)
