The reason for not doing this, according to the OLC person that answered
my question about it, was to encourage the weekend (when most flights
occure) flights to be posted promptly. I'd prefer 7 days (or at least 3
days), too, since when I'm traveling in the motorhome, I might not
always get to an Internet connection in time, but it seems like a
adequate reason for the OLC purposes.

Hmm, here's a thought for encouraging prompt submission: after 2-3
days, the score is reduced by 20% per day, so after 7-8 days, the score
is zero - or perhaps stops at 50, thus allowing very late claims to
keep track of personal distance achievements, but the score is
essentially worthless. Still does nothing to aid someone "on safari"
and far from the internet for an extended period of time.
