Hi guys, here's Niv's breakdown of playoff options. I'm open to the discussion of 2 or 3 divisions, but I would prefer the Wild Card format. Week 1 of playoffs is 3 vs. 6 and 4 vs. 5, with 1 and 2 getting a bye, and then Week 2 re-seeds. Week 3 and 4 is the championship. Let me know what everyone thinks.

I cannot draft in early March, first week (one of the few windows I'm unavailable) so strongly prefer the later dates.

Later, but pick whatever.
-
so, that narrows our options. looks like 3/2-3/4, or 3/19-3/21. what does everyone prefer?
-
I'm mostly around 3/1 - 3/7 and then 3/18 - whenever!
-
I don't have too many known conflicts. I'll get a surrogate if I need to.

I'm on spring training duty working up an ESPN Mag story on Judge/Stanton, so I have no idea when I'll be around. Set a date, and I'll do my best to work it out.
-
cannot draft: 3/17, 3/18, 3/22-4/1. aka the typically optimal times to draft. but basically anytime in the first half of march or sooner. weekdays fine too.
-
I'm curious to see how it works. H2H to me means a LOT of streaming which obviously isn't much of a thing in ottoneu. Hard to cycle through 150+ waiver moves with our salary system. We'll see what winds up being the optimal approach.

I think it's been said, and I agree: The H2H format, with playoffs, will keep far more team owners engaged throughout the season.
-
I don't think we officially decided. Paul said vote and then only two of us voted. And then Pod whined about it being H2H because it breaks his projections or something. And then you showed up. I think the intention was to have a playoff though. Question was 2 or 3 divisions.

no no, we can do playoffs. i was waiting on niv to post clarifications of the details of each playoff format.
-
To confirm, no playoffs, correct? Best overall H2H record wins the league? http://community.ottoneu.com/t/2018-playoff-options/3019

#fakenews I've won it four years in a row. All but one of my titles has mysteriously disappeared. :-)

"Try not to crush us too badly." - Surprised to hear that in a league where David has won 6 out of 7 years. That's pretty crazy (and well done). :)

no, no draft date yet. i opened that discussion and then we stalled out on it. how about this - can everyone tell me when they CAN'T draft?

PS, team names are locked.

Gentlemen, very much appreciate you adding me. Looking forward to playing with you and trying H2H this year. Apologies as I've been swamped at work today but I will be active during the season, and am an Ottoneu veteran, so should be a smooth transition. Thanks again - do we have a draft date yet?

Welcome, Trey.

ok, everyone, podhorzer is history, and trey baughn is on board. welcome, trey! try not to crush us all too badly!
-
Trey Baughn is going to take over my team. Paul, please give him access as a co-owner, his ID is luckystrikes. Then remove me. Thanks.

Thanks, P-Diddy.

hi guys. i asked Niv for clarification on what each playoff format means specifically, and he said he will post a note to the Ottoneu forums with a more detailed description. if someone would be so kind as to keep an eye out for that, i'd appreciate it. it's not one of my regular haunts, so i may miss it when it's posted.
-
Then I def like this option: Six teams per division, four teams make the playoffs, two-week championship matchup. Thanks for all you do for this league, Swy-guy.
-
Alright, not a problem, I'll post a Slack message, I'm sure we'll have multiple volunteers.

Pretty sure it's unwatchable if you haven't read it. Lots of people watch it anyway, but I have no idea how they know what's happening. Especially in the early seasons.

Here's the deal. We're switching to H2H. The original stated purpose of this league is to help promote Ottoneu to new fantasy players. H2H is the new product offered by Ottoneu this year, so that's what we'll be playing. The option of WHICH H2H style, I'm happy to have input on, but we're switching. Podz, if you're not enough of a team player to come along for the ride, then do us the courtesy of finding a replacement for your roster. By March 1st, if you'd be so kind.
-
would also prefer not to convert to H2H, but i'll end up participating either way
-
Six teams per division, four teams make the playoffs, two week championship matchup. But I'd rather keep the league as it is.
-
Don't let this influence your decision on which format to play, but I'm definitely out on H2H.

I guess the point of doing H2H is for almost everyone to have a chance to win. Therefore I vote the 3-division, 6 team playoff format.
The Jackson 5 on
February 7, 2018 9:34 PM
-
if we're doing this, i guess we should vote on format.
Three-division (4 teams per division, 6 teams make the playoffs), “wild card” schedule with a two week championship matchup
Two-division (6 teams per division, 4 teams make the playoffs), two week per round matchup (no wild card)
Two-division (6 teams per division, 4 teams make the playoffs), two week championship matchup (available if you want to purposely avoid the final week of September)
-
From RG today on H2H: One matchup per week per team (2018 is a 25 week schedule) with daily roster changes.
Two starting pitcher slots, with no caps on games started or innings pitched per matchup.
One catcher slot (in non-H2H leagues Ottoneu allows two catcher slots but still limits 162 games played at the position).
The trade deadline for all leagues will remain August 31st.
All other rules remain standard to Ottoneu leagues (roster sizes, budgets, auction timelines, etc.)

In light of the fact this has been a stagnant free-agent offseason for MLB, are we sure we want to have an earlier draft? Might be good for teams to at least know the guy they're getting will actually have a place on the field this year.
