rifatto & strafatto
Explanation:
se per "check" è da intendersi l'aver fatto una determinata cosa in un elenco, alla fine magari si potrebbe provare così. Ritmicamente e metricamente magari non sarà un granchè... solo un idea cmq

il "check" potrebbe stare per "darsi una regolata, stare all'occhio", il "riggedy" - mi pare di capire - solo una questione di ritmo rappeggiante - per quello che, conoscendo l'argomento, si potrebbe forse trovare una rima/una parola che suoni bene anche senza necessariamente significare tanto...

Asker: Ciao Adami, si trattava di un elenco di funzionalità in un testo marketing. Cfr. commento in soluzione di Giovanni.
