Pelham, it's showing the draft is still in progress. Do you need to mark it complete? I don't think any roster moves can be made until the draft is finished

Since the GS cap is 9, that means we can only have 9 starts in a week from SP, correct? How many SP roster slots are there, enough to get 4-5 starts in a day if that aligns?
Thx!
-
I’m in.
-
I’ll be there
-
Good to go. Let’s do it.
-
Is 6PM ET tomorrow good for everyone? Need everyone there in order to do the draft

FYI, I’m good for this Sun/Mon plan.
-
Yeah, I’m available for whatever makes sense...maybe it’s just me, but I’m itching to just get this started even though we don’t even know if/when the season will begin. I’m deferring to the experience players here, but can we take a poll of what is best days and times for everyone? I know people probably live in different time zones and different work schedules, but think we are all willing to be pretty accommodating to get this started.
-
I'm probably duplicating messages now, but a few of us are in two leagues (PSAL and Trash-Can Bangers), both of which are trying to set the draft for this Sunday and Monday night. I'll go with the majority, that's fine, but my preference would be not to have the two leagues' drafts overlap. There's just a lot to process in an ottoneu draft, and I'd really prefer to be focused on each individual league. That's my two cents--I hope one league can postpone by one week for the following Sun/Mon

Sure thing commish. Here’s the link to join the GroupMe. GroupMe helps send out notifications to owners. You can mute the conversation at any time if you so choose. You're invited to my new group 'PSAL Ottoneu League' on GroupMe. Click here to join: https://groupme.com/join_group/59101162/JGnGTSDg

Thanks, yeah, on top of that, Sunday is my sons bday, but lucky enough we aren’t doing much with this shelter in place. I’ll manage, but might have to go offline for a bit or use my phone so my wife isn’t too upset!!!
-
Agree with splitting it up. Takes about 7 hours to get through a whole draft, so I agree 3.5-4 the 1st day should be a goal. Horvath you can definitely access otteneu on a phone browser, might be tough to do an auction that way though

Works for me as long as we can do part of this on a phone? Sorry, first time player here for Ottoneu, I’ve never used these databases outside yahoo,ESPN,CBS
-
Ok obviously we want the draft date to work fo everyone so I am thinking I will make it Sunday at 6. We can put a 4 hour time limit on it so we get the majority done when no one is working, then we can finish it Monday starting at 7. If this doesnt work for anyone I guess try and let me know in the next couple days so it doesn't become a last minute change.
I also think the groupme is a good idea, I haven't started one before so Schrute Farms would you mind organizing it.
-
I think the draft needs to be broken into 2 parts. That’s how we did it in the other league I played in a couple years ago. Best to split it up so a whole day isn’t taken up. Something I do for the non-Ottoneu league I’m in is a group me. Easier to communicate with people that way
-
I'm good for Sunday, but if we start at 3p eastern, I'd request a 3-hr limit or something so I'm not giving up an entire weekend day with family. In any case, I vote to split across multiple days. My last from-scratch drafts in OttoNeu took 6-7 hours (it's simply a matter of math... we'll be drafting nearly 480 players, 45 seconds apiece, boom. 6 hours)
-
Any chance we can hold the last spot for a guy I know? Two guys from my league that would like to co-own a league but can’t register until tonight. Could we do that? Totally ok if not but they’d be a good addition
-
I'm good for Sunday.. Nothing to do all day besides sit around and watch Wrestlemania anyway lol
-
Can we break it up in two days somehow?
-
Sunday works for me. I did a startup a few years ago and it lasted about 6 hours
-
Sunday works for me as well
-
Sunday works for me...as a new owner, I’ll defer to others on the timing of things
-
Sunday works for me

Works for me. How long do we think this will last?
-
How does Sunday April 5th work for everybody? I'm sure we'll get another one by then

Welcome aboard...1 more team!!! I’m in same boat, can draft almost any day and anytime
-
What's up fellas? Happy to be on board. Long time fantasy player but first time on Ottoneu. I should be good to draft most any day is best for everyone else.
-
I’m also good to draft ASAP. Just didn’t know when league would fill.
-
I’d prefer to draft ASAP too. I need some sporting fix during this lockdown and would rather not wait... we’d all have the same injury risk and it’s not like it’s a one and done league.
-
Oh nice. Then I’m definitely on board to draft ASAP. I’ve been ready haha
-
From what I read, they are allowing refunds through May 15th, and if no season is played at all, they would refund the prize pool amount and not the admin fees, which is $300 for our league($25/guy). I totally understand if people wanted to wait this out, I’m just itching to get my roster constructed.
I’d be willing to add $150 to next years prize pool if their was a cancelled season to make up for some of the fees lost.

I’m on board with that. I do understand d if we want to delay the league so refunds are a possibility
-
I'm not opposed to that idea. Like he said, if it doesn't fill up then we won't draft anyway.

Hey guys, first time Ottoneu player here, and glad to join the league. Any chance we move the draft date back up? Was part of the reason why I joined and I feel some other owners out there will fill the league quicker knowing the draft is close to happening....just my 2 cents. Obviously if it doesn’t fill, the draft won’t happen.
-
We'd need a full league to draft, too. Yes, let's postpone until we know more about the season and fill those last 6 owner slots.
-
Hi Everyone, seems to make sense to push back the draft day until we have a better idea when the season will actually begin. I am going to make the change tomorrow unless anyone has an objection.
-
The draft day might work for me but I may need a later time. Not sure what yet. My softball schedule has yet to be released
-
Hey fellas! Glad to join this league! Hope we can fill it up soon!
-
Hi, it was a date that seemed like it would make sense, but not set it stone.
