What makes a ‘Well Rounded Cacher?”
The original "Well Rounded Cacher (The Fizzy Challenge)" GC11E8N was published in April of 2007 as a tribute to the cacher 'FizzyMagic'. To be able to claim a find on that cache, you'd need to find at least one cache of every difficulty/terrain combination (81 unique combinations), and you'd need to have at least one of each of the nine common cache types listed on the page and those finds have to be on caches published before April 2007 too!
'Well Rounded Cacher', 'Nine Squared', '81 Matrix' or more commonly just 'Fizzy Challenge' caches, are fairly common now with just about every region hosting at least one, and they now come in interesting variations. The "true" Fizzy Challenge cache is still around, the finds must be on caches published before the Challenge was published, see "Tequila 81 Proof" GC11PZW for the nearest example. Most Fizzy Challenges are more 'friendly' though and the publication date requirement is removed since older caches become rarer with every passing year, or at least the published date requirement is advanced every year or two, see "CZ's M-81 Challenge (Fizzy Challenge)" GC21X2K for an example of a 'Friendly Fizzy'. There are also multi-fizzy challenges, "Twice the Fizzy, Double the Fun!" GCPDAB and "Challenge:Do You Like Getting Fizzy, Fizzy, Fizzy?" GC3F6P0 for example, and even challenges that require completing the 81 Grid with or without specific types of caches: "anOTHER GREWAL Fizzy Challenge" GC3YKFV or "Unknown Fizzy Challenge" GC3C508.
To log this cache as a find you must find three or more caches in each of the Difficulty/Terrain combinations AND your log must list three 'Fizzy Challenges' you've already found, BUT they must have been found in THREE different States or Provinces!
There are no calendar restrictions on cache placement, cache types or when you found them.
For example if I was claiming a find on this challenge I could list:
Well Rounded NE Cacher (The Fizzy Challenge), GC15E8N in Massachusetts
Unknown Fizzy Challenge, GC3C508 in New Hampshire
Ontario Geocaching Association Fizzy Challenge, GCPDAF in Ontario

OhiO's Well Rounded Fizzy Challenge GC1AHN3 in Ohio

On the day you log your find your profile page statistics tab should demonstrate that you have found the required caches and your log should specify the Fizzy Challenges you've found and their location. Good luck, enjoy….
