Nice to get over 12,000 feet in March!

Mike,
What version of SeeYou did you use?


See You Version 3.5

I use version 3.4 but I haven't tried uploading to OLC with it this
year. I don't think it will work with the new version of OLC. I
haven't felt the need to upgrade from 3.4, uploading directly to OLC
seems to work great.

You should always use the latest version of your software. As problems
are discovered, the vendors make updates, and there is no sense having
problems that are already solved. SeeYou is also testing a beta
version to deal with a strange data transmission issue with the new
OLC interface where "+" signs get corrupted in transmission, causing
validation to fail. This affects C302+ users, but could also randomly
affect anyone if there is a "+" sign in the digital signature.

If your software fails to work, please try direct claim as an
alternate. As noted above in this thread, it is very easy now in OLC
2.0.

You should get an email receipt for your claim with your score when
the server finishes procesing your claim. To receive this email, make
sure your email address is correct in your OLC registration, and
"white list" onlinecontest.org if you are using a spam blocker. The
email will have a link to your claim record--be sure to send this when
you request support since it lets us find your claim immediately. You
can reply to the email, or forward it to your national OLC
administrator for help. The national admin also gets a copy of
notification emails for claims that do not score to alert them to any
problems.

Finally, for those of us in the western hemishpere, we have to be a
little patient. The developers are in Europe, and are usually sleeping
when we are claiming. So if the OLC server has a problem during the
night, we usually have to wait until morning for them to fix it. The
OLC is an all volunteer orginization, and it is not possible to pay
"night operators" to stand by for problems. So if your claim does not
go through right away, go to bed, and check your email in the
morning.
