Thanks. Btw I’m fine with switching after the auction draft. Just wanted to make sure we had some kind of arb as arb is vital to a healthy league. Glad it appears to have worked out
-
Ok switched it back. All arb results are still in place. Sorry about that.

Weighing in a little more, I kinda agree with GabeKap. Once the Vote Off was done, it should remain as done for 2022. As a last place team with a minor league roster (basically), I have no chance in 2022 without some quality players going into in free agency. It would seem we have a situation right now where we have neither a Vote Off or an Allocation for 2022. That's really not acceptable IMO.
-
It would seem Ottoneu needs to add a specific time period to the official schedule where leagues and adjust rules for the upcoming season! Slam Diego, please don't take my comments as a criticism of your efforts. It appears you were trying to change 2023 settings only to find out that it impacted 2022. Seems like your effort to implement the wishes of your league managers backfired which is no doubt now creating a head ache for you. I support whatever corrective action we take as a league.

I brought this up on the forum. Changing back to vote-off until after the Auction Draft may solve the problem. I feel strongly that the arb we all just participated in should not be nullified.
-
There’s a major problem though. Vote off designations got removed for the current offseason, nullifying the arb process. Please manually remove each voted off player from each team so they cannot be traded.
-
Thanks for the feedback. Just changed to allocation system for next year and 10 max weekly starts for pitching.

I just joined here and I don't want to be that new guy questioning all the league settings type. However, I did just complete Allocation Arbitration in my other Ottoneu league and the Vote Off method here (both for the first time). I would have to say that to me the Allocation method seems like a more reasonable approach. I can live with either, but just wanted to weigh in with my opinion.
-
Welcome back Crooked and thanks Cary-Grove for taking on the challenge. I agree with '62 Mets that the Allocation arbitration is the better of the two methods and would favor a move to that next year, along with the move to the weekly starts limits.

Hi, guys. Not dead. I'll be back in for 2022 so you can kick my tail again.
-
Hello all, I picked up Dirty Bunts. What a crappy roster. I was looking for a challenging team to manage and this roster certainly fits that mold. Looking forward to competing with you all in 2022.
-
@Crooked you have til 9 PM Eastern tonight to complete arb.
-
Crooked hasn’t visited since June… last day to vote BTW!
-
If anyone knows someone interested in joining, we are looking for a new owner to take over Dirty Bunts team.
Also thanks for the arbitration clarification, don't forget to make your picks and Happy Offseason!

I personally prefer the arbitration that involves $, because you don't outright lose a player (or expose him to restricted FA), instead the league is just allowed to correct the cost of players based on their previous season. It's much better imo, but I know plenty who prefer the vote-off system.
-
It's basically a means of punishing other owners for making good decisions by trying to deprive them of at least some of the benefit of those decisions. Yes, I hate arbitration. But I otherwise like Ottoneu, so I hold my nose and go along . . .
Good Wood on

Yeah you're basically just voting for one player on each roster that you'd like to have a chance to obtain. Player with most votes on each team becomes a restricted FA.
-
The player that receives the most votes collectively on each team is turned into a restricted free agent that can be bid on by other teams during the auction draft.
In the case of a tie, whichever player has the team with the worst standings voting for them is the restricted free agent.
The team they were voted off from will get an automatic $5 discount towards that player, so if they get the player back, they will get the player for $5 under what they bid.
-
Haven't checked here in a while, glad I didn't miss any deadlines lol. This is my first time playing so I'm new to this arbitration process, could anyone give me a brief explainer of what the general strategy is? I just check the players I think are valuable right?
-
Hey! I’m the new owner. Looking forward to this! Played Ottoneu in 2016 and 2017 and took a 4 year break. Back at it
-
Thanks for the heads up. Take care

I'm gonna have to cut back my leagues next year. With arbitration starting next week you can look for a replacement now so the new owner has more say in this team for 2022. Slam Diego, you'll have to change managers for me.
-
Will be back in 2022
-
Congrats to Woba for championship and to Underachievers and Hunnefield for making the podium. Thanks for great job Commish, hope we get exciting baseball in the next month and a half
-
Thanks Big Papi and Bobby for the shout outs. Realized that both of my head to head leagues ended yesterday and the Roto I play in I suck this year and have been out of it for awhile, so time for fantasy withdrawals. At least my Mariners haven't been eliminated yet. I had a blast in this league and look forward to next year, with the 10 start a week rule and the Prestige League (if I read it right the top 6 qualify). Not sure when we do the Vote Off Arbitration but see y'all then.

Agreed on all fronts, definitely in favor of moving to 10 starts per week with more starter slots available.
LethSugo on

Yeah it just helps eliminate the flukiness of some weird things that happen with our current format. I'm sure we've all had the random day where our four best starters all go and there is only two slots available - with the other format as long as you prepare diligently), there will be five starter slots so you could pitch them all on the same day
-
I think having 10 starts per week makes a lot of sense and makes it easier to plan and strategize the week ahead and your season as a whole.

Hey just an idea going into next year - in my other league we have the rule where each team gets 10 starts per week rather than the two starter spots per day. . .personally I think the 10 starts per week is way fairer and makes more sense in every way. Something to consider going into next year
-
Just an FYI, I am always open to take offers on a player that you think will get you over the hump. No bargains available. If you want to pay through the nose for a guy and regret the trade in a couple years, I'm your guy.

definitely interested in that prestige league! This year I'm off to a slow start but would be fun long term
-
Agreed, just noticed that leaderboard which is cool. Also cool, if you haven't seen it, is the Prestige League. It's like the Champions League for soccer -- if you finish in the top half of our league this year you automatically qualify for the Prestige League next year. Your team would simultaneously compete in both, and each month the field is reduced. We need to pay a $50 fee as a league to be eligible. https://community.ottoneu.com/t/introducing-the-ottoneu-prestige-league/8606
