13th is possible for me a few minutes after 7. Can't do the 14th.

Either works. No preference
-
Let's just try something here. What about Weds March 13th or Thurs 14th, 7PM ET. Either of those dates a no-go? Season starts March 20th (SD + LAD in SK), so going a bit earlier than last time to accomodate.
-
Agreed - will have some potential dates to throw out very shortly.

Welcome, it’s been a fun and active league. There has been some dustups but due to a great commissioner he easily resolved conceived or real issues. It’s been fun and competitive. You will be pleased.

Welcome to it! It's a good one.

Thanks! Excited to join the league

I'd like to welcome the new owner of 1406 to league! Welcome aboard, Lakotahen!

*Reminder* - Please renew your sub to Ottoneu (assuming you plan on joining us for 2024) ASAP! The deadline is 1/31.
Also, this will serve as the deadline for me to solicit randos for the open team slot by posting it to the abandoned teams graveyard. I'm happy to hold off if we have a serious lead(s), but in the absence of that I'd like to fill with whomever so we can get down to business (ie. setting draft date + time).
TY

Will give a couple days to see if anyone has a lead they'd like to throw in the ring -- otherwise will abandon and make public. Not sure what other option we'd have at this point.

There's a recent post by Krand on the slack to fill 1406. No bites yet as far as I am aware. Second time it's been posted. Is it claimable by the public Claim A Team function at all (or do we even want that)?

Not from others - I had a couple that fell through. Feel free to nominate! I'm not active on the Slack channel that I believe some of you are on.

No leads to replace 1406? Would be nice to give the new owner a window for trades before cuts.

1406 is out - asked to be removed this morning. Going to start the search to backfill; feel free to DM me with any leads you may have. I have a few as well.

Conor (sp?) Norby is available to whomever added $2 to him

It closes on the 14th; he’s my guy, we’ll be good. Texted w him last night.

So, it looks like forgot about trea forgot about arbitration.

To clarify, I have not YET abandoned. I just removed the old manager. Krang reached out to say that we may be able to get a temp to participate in arb for Brando (which I support), so will explore that now. If anyone has a lead on a backfill, let me know!
-
Just FYI to all (and Brandolorians!) -- I'm going to abandon their team to allow for (hopefully) an external party to participate in arb and then we can look for someone to takeover permanently.
-
Just over a week left for you not yet arb appliers.
-
Hi everyone - just a reminder that the offseason 'program' has begun, and arbitration is now open through November 14th. Please make sure to get your selections in before then!
Also, I would ask everyone to just take a moment and ensure that you plan on joining Chester's Project in 2024 - I'd love to have you all back! But now is a crucial time for the league if there is going to be turnover, as a new manager would likely want to participate in the arb process themselves. Thanks!
-
Woo! Congrats, Otto!
Good luck during the offseason, everyone!
-
A little late on the congratulations, but:
Great win, Otto! Hell of a run! Team is a juggernaut!

His average price in Otto leagues is $10.

I'd cut and buy back in 30 days. Honestly, though I wouldn't even keep at $15.
-
No free lunches!

Lol I guess I underbid on Skenes a bit

Yep, we're all good. Looking forward to the second half (though I don't have much of a chance to make much noise in the standings...)

NYS -- also from Niv:
Just let them know that none of the messages are permanently deleted and if he wants me to restore them he can just email help@ottoneu.com

I’ve confirmed that only a manager of the team can delete a message posted by a team on the league message boards. If you want I can undelete all his nonsense board posts but I’m not sure the manager wants that - they did after all delete those messages.

Looking to trade Adley R and Sal Perez interested in any type of return
-
You can delete your own messages, I can’t delete anyone else’s.
If this dude is deleting his own messages to create some sort of false flag then I’m done/he’s done - I’ll kick him out. Really don’t care! I’m like person #8 he’s crossed paths with in the league unfavorably (some of you still here bear witness), so really not interested in that continuing.
This has nothing to do with the dropping or strategy aspect of the game. Will ask Niv if he has insight to the missi
-
Idk, I've never commissioned an Otto league. It does look like his posts disappeared though. It is the time of year that big money players start to get dropped though. If a player sucks or a team is out of contention, money better spent elsewhere.
-
From NYS to my inbox: “ Comish what’s your opinion of all the high dollar drops. You. Blocked me from the board and yet you do the same.”
Just to note I haven’t blocked anyone from posting (could I even do that? I wouldn’t…).
-
Just so happens that Jacob Nottingham, of the aforementioned rule, was just traded to the Giants. Weird.

Versus*
-
Where was the vote?
-
Ok, the league has spoken! Honestly the Guerrero cut was sort of the straw and don't really have an issue with it on its own. I can see a reasonable case for it happening, and you've all made it as well. My issue was/is more of an eyeroll when a player who has not been previously nominated or rostered gets put up and then immediately dropped. I get that it doesn't affect me in terms of my roster... just find it annoying! But alas, different strokes.
-
I can share that many of the longer tenured leagues are filled with bold cuts of expensive stars. Even if I wouldn't have made the Guerrero cut, there's definitely some dead money tied up across the league in overvalued players that is weighing some teams down that I think is of at least equal negative impact.

Woah. Had missed all of this, including the existence of the Nottingham rule...Interestingly enough, I immediately thought of the Ottoneu 30-day renomination cool down that already existed when I just read up on it. I do enjoy my lottery tickets, unloved free agents, and madcap chaos, so I'm down with churn.

What is knottingham rule?
-
Personally, I don't find it all that weird - just maybe on the upper end of the churn spectrum. Though, I may be a bit of a churner myself. Looking to fill short-term niches or cheap lottery tickets. Plus, I like to see names on auction - makes me feel like there's always activity. I do get that its not a very realistic-to-baseball strat (though the Nottingham Rule had to get established a couple years ago!) but I don't think its all that uncommon in the fantasy sphere as a whole.
