Then, the question becomes - why even bother with EM.com's fuel logs? I track my fuel consumption with a spreadsheet that I update every other month or so, then I import that set into Fuelly as one CSV file. It take about 1/2 an hour to update my spreadsheet, then another minute to update Fuelly's logs. This is possible because my spreadsheet has a section within each of my vehicles' worksheets, that can be quickly be pasted into a real text editor, changed to replace the tab characters with commas, then directly saved as Fuelly-friendly CSV files. After that, it takes about another 45 minutes to update the fuel logs in EM.com.
The suggestion to mitigate this, by only entering 1 entry per quarter/year/whatever, kind of misses the point of having a fuel log at all. It makes that much easier to turn the fuel economy rating for each user into some sort of easily gameable contest, instead of providing a serious way to track fuel usage by the members here.
