• The way I've been drafting this year, that will take care of itself. No need to legislate a defeat for me! 😥

  Otto Two on March 31, 2022 3:05 PM

• Sounds good. Can we just create a rule that Otto doesn't win? Is that something we can vote on?

  Wonder Wharf Wonderdogs on March 31, 2022 2:08 PM

• We've got 7 votes for changing the 2 starts per day. Considering Otto can beat us regardless of the format, I will change the settings. Full disclosure; I voted to change the settings too.

  Martes on March 31, 2022 1:54 PM

• I'd prefer to do 10 starts a week

  Frozen Pop Tarts on March 31, 2022 9:34 AM

• 2 starts per day was the format used a year ago in this league, and it's also the format Niv uses in the OPL contest. You're still restricted regardless of what format you choose. If you go with 2 SP slots per day, obviously you are restricted to 14 starts per week (7 days per week x 2). If you allow 5 SP slots per day, then you are restricted to a maximum of 10 starts per week. (Ottoneu rules allow you to set the max starts per week to a min of 7 and to a max of 10.) I like more starts.

  Otto Two on March 29, 2022 4:06 PM

• Personally I don't care for having too many restrictions... I understand the argument of "built my roster for those rules", although I'm not sure how many of us really knew how to handle 2 SP starts per day. I sure didn't lol

• Survey. Please vote on Games Started Cap before draft. I created this survey to see if you guys think we should change the GS cap to a weekly number or leave it as it is: https://es.surveymonkey.com/r/H5T69DK

• thanks, commish!

  Miracle Braves 1914 on March 23, 2022 8:42 PM

• Changed the draft time for 7:00 PM. Hope that makes it more feasible.

  Martes on March 23, 2022 8:15 PM

• Yeah I probably wrote any time on that Saturday but later is much better for me, so I'm with Cycle Man. I can make it any time, but the later the better (7, 8 pm edt).
  
  Also, I'd love to join a startup league (I'm in another one but we had to break up the draft into lots of sessions), but I have another draft on Monday and I don't think two auction drafts at the same time is feasible.

  Miracle Braves 1914 on March 23, 2022 7:56 PM

• It looks like the draft is set up for Saturday, April 2nd at 6:00. Is that true? If so, would it be possible to move it to 6:30? My son has baseball until 6. I hate to ask as the new guy but just making a request. I'm excited about the league.

  Cycle Man on March 23, 2022 6:01 PM

• Hey guys! I started a new league and we just had our 12th manager drop out. One spot left if you any of you want to join! The league is called Jobus Front Office. The draft will be this upcoming Monday and the team is available on the “Join League” page.

  Asheville Tourists on March 23, 2022 1:52 PM

• Should we schedule a draft? Please vote in this dodle link https://doodle.com/meeting/participate/id/vbmpMqra

  Martes on March 18, 2022 5:44 PM

• You can try to use the doodle app to have everyone fil out their availability and see if we can all agree on a date. Another league I'm in has used it and it worked pretty well. Also if need be we can do a slow draft using couchmanagers. It's not ideal, a live draft is much better, but it's a solution if we can't all agree.

  Miracle Braves 1914 on March 16, 2022 1:01 PM

• Should we.. uhhh.. schedule… a.. draft? 😂

  Asheville Tourists on March 16, 2022 12:05 PM

• OK. We are good to go. What should we do know. I'm laughing that I don't know, but I am also intrigued.

  Martes on March 16, 2022 11:04 AM

• Baseball is back! Big welcome to our new additions, glad we were able to keep the league going.

  Miracle Braves 1914 on March 13, 2022 6:02 PM

• Thanks for joining.

  Yes, I Confess on March 13, 2022 5:58 PM

• It looks like I have claimed the last team. Happy to join!

  Cycle Man on March 13, 2022 5:50 PM

• Looking forward to it!

  Frozen Pop Tarts on March 12, 2022 6:40 PM

• Looking forward to it!

  Frozen Pop Tarts on March 12, 2022 6:40 PM

• Thanks! Excited to get in on the action

  Minnetonka Moonstompers on March 12, 2022 4:27 PM

• Welcome to our new members! Only one more to go and we can set a draft date.

  Otto Two on March 12, 2022 4:01 PM

• Welcome, Bat Flippers!

  Miracle Braves 1914 on March 10, 2022 8:20 PM

• Great to have you

  Yes, I Confess on March 10, 2022 8:01 PM

• Hey guys excited to join!

  Imo's Empire on March 10, 2022 7:30 PM

• I have found zero takers so far. I see that "claim a team" page has not changed much if any in the past couple of weeks. I think the lockout has crushed enthusiasm for this for now.

  Otto Two on March 8, 2022 1:28 PM

• Any update on new owners?

  Asheville Tourists on March 8, 2022 12:45 PM

• Cheers all. Merseyside born and a massive Red. Excited to join here. Hope we fill up!

  Schrodinger's Bats on February 18, 2022 6:09 AM

• Welcome aboard, from a Leicester City fan.

  Running On Empty on February 17, 2022 11:18 PM

• Big welcome to my 1344 league mate (and fellow Liverpool fan?) Matt, aka Merseyside Reds. Nice to have you with us!

  Miracle Braves 1914 on February 17, 2022 7:34 PM

• I tried a new community forum post: https://community.ottoneu.com/t/20-h2h-fgpts-2-matchups-week-seeking-replacement-owners/11220 , and also announced it in a few legues I'm in. Also gonna try some facebook groups. If we don't get them filled by the end of the month we might be in trouble.

  Miracle Braves 1914 on February 16, 2022 7:32 AM

• Hopefully we'll get a few takers. They'll still be able to make penalty free cuts even after the deadline passes in a few days. I'll keep mentioning these openings in all the other leagues I participate in, and I ask that you guys please do the same if you don't mind. Thanks!

  Otto Two on February 12, 2022 7:06 PM

• You mean if we consolidated two leagues looking for managers? It would have to be a perfect match, ie, if they're looking for 8 managers.
  
  I don't know, maybe once the lockout ends and as opening day approaches we'll get more interest. Anyone have any idea what happens if we don't fill? (I think we get a refund, but nor sure)

  Miracle Braves 1914 on February 10, 2022 5:46 PM

• Thanks for that post on Slack. I have posted on the Managers Wanted a couple of times; perhaps we can find commish/managers that are willing to join, if we join their league. I could do that...

  Martes on February 9, 2022 12:06 AM

• Ok, done

  Miracle Braves 1914 on February 8, 2022 3:26 PM

• Please go ahead and post them there as well. They have been available on the "claim a team" screen for quite a while, and have been offered up on the "Managers Wanted" section of the ottoneu forums.

  Otto Two on February 8, 2022 2:23 PM

• Commish, what do you think of posting the two abandoned teams on the Ottoneu Slack? If you want me to, I can do it.
  
  I also realized we have two teams who still haven't renewed, they still have two days, but we could be looking at 4 abandoned teams in a few days :/

  Miracle Braves 1914 on February 8, 2022 12:39 PM

• I was asked what happens if you don't extend your dynasty by the 31st deadline. Here's what was posted in another league i'm in.
  
  "If you don't pay by the deadline, Ottoneu will lock you out for 10 days, and ask you to pay. After 10 days, your team will go on the abandoned teams list."
  
  Details here: https://community.ottoneu.com/t/renewal-dates/830

  Otto Two on January 29, 2022 12:58 PM

• Just a reminder guys, the keeper deadline has been extended, but the renewal deadline has not been extended. You must renew by Jan31st or your team gets listed as an expired team and anyone will have the option of claiming your team. To renew, just go to your dashboard and on the far right, you'll see "extend your dynasty". Click on that and pay. Thanks!!!

  Otto Two on January 24, 2022 7:25 PM

• Welcome, me encanta. Love the new name, Duck Snorts.

  Running On Empty on January 22, 2022 7:27 PM

• Welcome, me encanta! Also, Money Ballers is now the Duck Snorts

  Miracle Braves 1914 on January 22, 2022 5:27 PM

• Nice to see some action here again. I'm sick of this damn lockout. I hope they get it together soon and settle this thing.

  Otto Two on January 20, 2022 6:16 PM

• Glad to see this league still going, I'm already making trades!

  Minnetonka Moonstompers on January 20, 2022 2:20 PM

• The wheels are in motion!!

  Martes on January 20, 2022 12:10 PM

• A big welcome to our new additions, great names!

  Miracle Braves 1914 on January 20, 2022 10:15 AM

• Welcome Whippets!

  Otto Two on January 20, 2022 6:46 AM

• Welcome Whippets!

  Otto Two on January 20, 2022 6:46 AM

• Nevermind. I figured that out. Welcome the Lake Wobegon Whippets to the league.

  Running On Empty on January 19, 2022 11:37 PM

• Ouch I just missed claiming the Ghost's by minutes. I will take the Cubs instead. Not a bad team either. Is there anyway to change the team name? I'm not really a Cubs fan.
