Ok I guess I dont understand how the points work. I've always played you go head to head against another team each week. Is that how this is?

Awesome! Also this is 5 by 5 traditional so we all going against one another. Good luck today!
-
roselle--its normal to have 5 sp (scheduled starters have a check mark) and 5 rp--its roto points and not head to head
-
Few questions fellas. For the lineup is it normal to have so many starters? 10 pitchers? Also this is head to head right, how do you see who you're going against.

Let me see if I can find a guy too
-
A discord would be cool. On another note, we lost an owner already?
-
Auction is officially over and lineups can be set! Good luck everyone :)
-
crap ok i'll try and get in there asap
-
Auction going live again in 20 minutes!!
-
Group Me is easy too
-
great idea!
-
Slack link for people to join! https://join.slack.com/t/ottoneuarmchairgms/shared_invite/zt-qjh1t5ck-GshyZ8C3XmgFIV~swCi03g
-
Slack's a great idea IMO
-
There are 2 catcher spots in a non-H2H league to allow you to max out games played at each position (162 games). Maxing out games played is not a problem in this league since we are beginning in the middle of May. There's only 112 days until the playoff begins on September 6th. (See our league settings, and click on the full calendar link.)

if someone can teach me that's ok....
-
Wanted to take the pulse of the group regarding getting a Slack or Discord set up for more real-time communication. I want to keep things lightweight and relaxed, so if that is too much I think this Message Board works great.
-
Yeah! Degrom and Story!
-
At least the team that is there is decent.
-
Hey all, according to the following post I was just reading, it looks like we actually CAN run two catchers to accrue points...wonder why the rules contradict this. https://fantasy.fangraphs.com/the-math-of-winning-ottoneu/ Look under the section: "1,944 GP"
-
haha no problem. I didn't even notice.

My game plan for the dropped manager - Wait for everyone to wrap up the auction tonight and then I will fill out their lineup so scoring can start tomorrow. I will then place the team on the abandoned team list to hopefully bring in a new manager. I have a few people I might be able to reach out to, but shouldn't hurt us from moving forwards and getting this all going!
-
Ok, phew! Resolved. Sorry Roselle Rockets! You should be all good now :)
-
Niv responded in a second. What a legend. I think he is resolving it now.
-
sure it happens all the time
-
Yup, we unfortunately lost a manager last night but I accidentally removed the wrong one :( I emailed support...hopefully they can help. If they reach out as well I will be able to add them back.
-
i tried to recover but failed. ottoneu help line?
-
Just accidentally removed the Roswell Rockets GM...trying to add back...does anyone remember their username?
-
Ok sounds good.

I think it is only one catcher: "In non-head-to-head leagues, a starting lineup consists of one slot at each infield position (catcher, first base, second base, third base, and shortstop), five outfielder slot, one additional middle infielder (second base or shortstop) slot, one additional hitter from any position (utility slot), five starting pitcher slots, and five relief pitcher slots." (I was confused and thought we were H2H for some reason last night...we are Roto)
-
did we ever figure out if we start 2 catchers?

Awesome! Thanks everyone for being accomodating. We will stick with 7pm EST again tonight and wrap it up as soon as we can. Scoring should start tomorrow if everyone fills up their line-ups tonight.
-
santa monica--thanks i think you are doing great!
-
i think if the draft finishes tonite lineups can be done immediately after the auction is closed and scoring can begin tomorrow
-
all good. This has been pretty smooth so considering how advanced it is. I actually added players to my wishlist this time, not sure why i didn't do that yesterday.

Yes perfect, be nice to run a day two of draft for us who left early. My little one was a bear last night. Dad first, fantasy addict second, haha
-
Yeah since I am filled up, I can just hit the "start" button and keep it on a second monitor. So you all name the time! I do think I will try to be a bit more organized in the future regarding timings of things (and gaining consensus before the fact). This is my first time running a league, but it's no excuse for the confusion. My apologies to all, but I did think the night went pretty well! Just trying to do my best now to accommodate everyone else who needs to finish the draft.
-
Ok sounds good. If anyone wishes for an earlier start that's great too.

We can stick with the same time as last night as a default (7pm EST). I expect it to only take 2 hours max since most people are filled up now. If we gain consensus around another earlier time that works, I'm happy to start the auction again at that point.
-
Also when does scoring start?

However you want to do it. maybe see what everyone's availability is today. We seem to be all over the place but im around all day.

(cont) we can just resolve those adds immediately for players that don't have multiple interested buyers. Just a few options.
-
Hey all! I think the best option is to open up the auction again at some point today that works for the remaining managers who need to fill their lineup. It shouldn't take a long time at all to wrap up. One idea I had that we can do with the approval of the other managers here is doing a sort of "instant auction". Since I have the power to add players directly to rosters, if each remaining manager posts the remaining players they want and the prices they are willing to spend on them...
-
send a note to santa monica and see what he says--im open to whatever works for those who need to fill spots
-
18 of 40 spots
-
How does this work now? Fun last night but I still need fill spots in? You guys went late haha!
-
How do we claim a player? In the draft room when i try and nominate a claim it says there is no draft currently.
Dickie Thon on
May 17, 2021 10:24 AM

i'm cool with whatever
-
I have drafted 40 guys, so of course I'd love to see it go to free agents to fill rosters. I can still sign 2 free agents. But I think the fair thing to do is let those guys have the opportunity to draft again tonight if they want to.

i think it was going to be picking up on the wire--but i am unsure
-
Hey guys, for those that had to cut out early last night do we just pick up free agents or is the draft continue tonight?
