My best year yet. I didn't do well in the OLC Champion category, but did well in the all flights and perhaps logged more flights than anybody else? 347 flights logged. Are you happy with your results for last year?

I for one am not. Had so many problems with Flarm/Oudie combo that I lost virtually all my good flights. Even if I had posted all my flights, the year would not have been nearly as good as previous years. (Gotta work less) How in the world do you log 347 flights in a year? I'm jealous!

2014 was better than 2013, but still not as good as 2012 or 2011. Had personal frustrations with OLC. Lost two flights because I changed the declaration in flight. I understand that should disqualify from BHC entry, but why from any other category of OLC? Lost one flight due to a power cycle in flight that caused a 28 second gap in logging while the logger went through its powerup cycle.
But, I digress. Thank you, OLC, for again providing a fun place to host file sharing, and looking forward to the 2015 OLC Season. I see I am already falling behind!

Kinda OK. It's been a cool, damp year here, but I got in more soaring
than last year. Had a couple of nice flights -- running the sea breeze
front on Lake Erie was a high point, as was introducing a student to
soaring and claiming 50km in a 2-33. I guess it's like golf; you go out
and shoot a crappy score, but have a nice drive or two and pitch one
up close from the rough, and you call it a good day.

Then I guess you must have liked our Arizona summer?

This is some of the best soaring on planet earth, IMHO...
Check out this video of some of the weather we've had here in the Desert Southwest this summer.

it was a good season for me but I stopped posting to OLC and used Skylines instead.

I use Skylines because I can use US units and don't have to convert from
metric for my logs. It also has a much better mapping function.
I post to OLC as well to add a few points to Albuquerque's (soon to be
Moriarty's) score sheet.

Steve and others who occasionally can not post to OLC or can not get scored from one reason or another.
Under the help link there is an option to submit a request to post your flight late or correct your score, even if you had power interuption or other issues which made your entry invalid. I used it a bunch of times and always got my score corrected the next day. Give it a try.
