How Do You Evaluate an OLC Flight ?
The folks at WeGlide.org appear to be open to scoring formula and data presentation suggestions. I just asked them to somehow identify declared fights. These are often more difficult that an ad-hoc choice once in the air.

Some years ago, OLC added bonus points for triangle flights after analyzing many cross-country flights - adding about 30% in points as I recall. Before that, points were based solely on distance and glider handicap.
This is a pretty rough guesstimate of evaluation - distance plus triangle bonus - but there are plenty of other variables left out.
Feel free to develop a new set of algorithms!
