thats all correct, heres a great article on the first offseason for a league https://fantasy.fangraphs.com/ottoneu-arbitration-strategies-for-the-first-off-season-activity/

and I have to spend all $25 or none of my allocations go thru?

I'm not 100% sure how allocations work but I'm fine with that too... Is the idea that I have $25 that I can increase the price of players on anyone's team, but I can't increase any one team more than $3? And we have to allocate at least $1 to every team? So in theory we will all allocate max $1 to Carry and the teams at the bottom and prob $3 each to Quad and the teams at the top?

I personally prefer Allocations, though am fine with either.

Got it! I guess we will see how it all plays out. Always learning... https://ottoneu.fangraphs.com/rules#offseason - section d - implies we need to choose one of two methods - either allocations or vote off?

I think that is what the arbitration system is for! It inflates prices for players which will cause cap issues for teams, and will see certain players voted off teams, which should create some sort of player pool for us to auction for come next year

Will we decide if we want to do some sort of wealth redistribution system then?

Looks like off-season arbitration starts October 15th, and runs through November 14th! Start strategizing!

We should talk about implementing some of the ideas in the link Bats sent...

Hey guys it's been fun! i really enjoyed this pool and hope we're building something for future years. Definitely deepened my love of the game. I'm open for business for trading through the winter - really looking for some solid starting pitching. Let me know if we can make something happen. And congrats to Quad - he really owned us for most of the year. Nice work! I would love to strategize a way to give the last place teams a chance at building a franchise.

How does it work in offseason? Can we protect as many players as we want? Is there any rules to redistribute players so that the lower rung teams can have a shot next year - something of a redraft or something of a certain number of players? Is there any trading in the offseason? This seems like an important time to be planning a keeper league team!

I've enjoyed it. Hoping next year to be more active on the trade market. It's hard to gauge keeper value vs expensive studs, I think everyone was cautious about trading future for present and vice-versa.

Still here holding down the 6-12th spots :) - Willing to trade some pitching for some power - Open to listening to anything everyone is available.
-
Hey gang - half midseason break. How's it going? Was this everything you all wanted it to be? I'm loving the format. I wish there was more trading. I'm curious how many of us are still here - looks like at least 5 of us are still engaged?

Hey gang - so who's around and paying attention? Would love to try and get a trade through - I have too much talent on my corners and am looking to move for SB and/SVs. I've proposed a couple trades but haven't heard back from BB... Let's make a deal!

Will probably try to add some players to their roster at some point here so that if someone does eventually decide to pick them up they have a little more to play with - assuming that is ok w/ everyone. I know it's nice to be competing against one less team for any players - but in fairness to whoever picks this team up both this year and moving forward, they'll need to at least have some pieces to work with.

FYI - I marked Bronx Bombers as abandoned so it will be listed on the main page with other abandoned teams. We'll see if anyone decides they want to pick the team up and work with it - or if anyone has a friend/someone in another league that wants to give Ottoneu a try with a big-time challenge (but without any risk as they aren't on the hook to pay for it) then let them know.

Yup - it was a mistake - it was my assumption that cutting a $1 player would not incur a cap penalty so when the penalty was first applied I assumed it was a mistake and removed it - had an issue earlier this season where I got a roster error and then 5 mins later after not having touched the roster that the error cleared - after doing a little research I realized that I was wrong - I will rest the roster at this point as I doubt someone is rushing to pick up Mengden

Big Bats, why did you remove the cap penalty for Daniel Megden? Was that an accident?
-
Ok not awesome but whatcha gonna do. Thanks! Great weekend of baseball. Mariners are showing the red sox who's boss!

I just reread the rules, and there is actually no salary relief for 60 day IL guys. You only get the extra roster spot.
-
Got it, excellent, thank you! Another question - I have a guy who's out for the season. Currently he's on the 10 day but assuming he'll be shifted to the 60 day. Do we have a pass in terms of salary with guys who are out for the season or on the 60 day? I remember reading something somewhere but can't find it right now? Do I want to wait to cut the player when he goes on the 60 day if we do get some sort of salary relief?

if you go into your lineup page each day, once the lineups are announced (1-3 hours before game time), you'll see a green checkmark next to your player if they're starting, or a red X next to them if they aren't
-
Happy first day! So question: is it clear to everyone whether the Ottoneu site communicates that your players are starting? I can't see anything on the site that makes that obvious, which tells me you have to dig deeper every day to try and find each teams starting lineup?
