What Is Wrong With OLC?

I was unaware of that! So I followed your instructions and, voila:


An Error has occurred!


A Competitor with this name and birthday already exists.Forgot your
password? http://www.onlinecontest.org/olc-2.0/gliding/wrongLogin.html



Several times I've tried to update my email address by following
different links on their website. The links have always taken me to the
so called update page and always with similar results. There's always
some sort of error. When I try the "forgot password" link, I'm told
that I already exist. Why not just send me a link via my already given
email address?

I could delete my account and create a new one but then I'd lose all my
history.

I've been trying for over a year to get the OLC people to fix my login.
I've filled out their help forms too many times to count and they don't
reply and they don't fix the problem. As it stands now, I can not
upload my flights to OLC. When I log in I get a message that states (in
German) that my email address is not valid. But it is valid. And I am
logged on successfully. Then, when I select to upload a flight, I get
the same message stating that my email address is invalid.

Is there anyone listening at OLC? Is there anyone in Europe who can
contact them on my behalf? My email address is
. It is a valid address.

Since I can no longer upload flights, I won't be providing financial
support any more unless it's fixed. Too bad, since I'm currently number
1 at Moriarty and number 14 in the USA.

Have you done your annual update of your Registration? Go to the list of competitors. Find your name. Go to the right hand side of the form; just past the link to your flights, icon for "contest registration update". Must be done annually. All your info can be correct, but if you don't submit it annually, you aren't valid. Just checking that it is all still correct is not sufficient.

If you are positive you have the correct email, wouldn't this error message mean that you are using the wrong user name? "This name" referring to your pilot name. Just a guess...

Nice guess, but I've been using the same username and password for about
4 years. I simply type the letter "d" in the username field and the
rest of my username and password are filled in automatically. I get
logged in, but can not claim flights.

Maybe they've come to dislike Chrome? I'll try Firefox or that new
browser that comes with Windows 10.

Tried it with Microsoft Edge and got identical results. It logs me in
but won't let me do anything.

Try typing your user name and password out
instead of autotype.
