If you haven't heard, OLC will go offline at the end of the Northern Hemisphere 2025 soaring season. Here is a post from OLC describing the changes. 
WeGlide will be the best alternative website to post your flights. 
IF you want to retrieve any OLC information, I strongly advise you do it before the website is pulled offline. 

As previously announced, the OLC will end with the 2025 gliding season... thus, this will also be the last league event. The reason for the OLC's discontinuation is very simple: Despite intensive efforts, unfortunately, no successor team has been found.
The definitive final OLC competition day is September 22, 2025.
At the end of the year, the 'onlinecontest.org' domain will be taken offline.
This time, the winners' certificates will be sent by mail to the runners-up (unfortunately, there will be no OLC final in Poppenhausen this year).
We congratulate the winners/clubs on their sporting achievements.
Our very special thanks go to Bernd Fischer (TopMeteo), who has created exemplary met communications week after week for many years.
We extend our sincere thanks to our supporters TopMeteo and BÜRKLIN itself.

Undoubtedly, the OLC created an innovation over 25 years ago with the idea of ​​a 'Gliding League,' which is exemplary for sport-oriented gliding.
Finally, here's the recent assessment of a renowned manufacturer regarding the OLC itself:
Gliding would not be in the same position worldwide today if it weren't for the OLC!
