• Please feel free to rework that deal and even engage with managers who have expressed interest.
  
  I think we can all do more to lift the trade activity and communication around the league.

  Pythagorean Regrets on May 20, 2025 10:27 PM

• Vetoing trades is not something I ever thought I would see happen without collusion being involved but here we are. As a league I hope this is the first and last for a long time.
  
  To the managers involved in the deal please just see this as an indication from the league that we're all invested in keeping things competitive and active and that the value in this deal was seen as egregious by a large majority.

  Pythagorean Regrets on May 20, 2025 10:26 PM

• If they're on the block, then let's talk

  The Back Fields on May 20, 2025 1:22 AM

• I would have traded my first born son, my left arm and then some for these two ptchers.

  Berlin Strawberries 🍓 on May 20, 2025 12:16 AM

• I mean, player valuation wise it's two (currently) top 5 SPs who are keepers for at least next year if not more for a rookie who's struggled but has potential and one who is very likely out for 14 months or more. And yeah, listing them on the block would have been nice at least.

  Quack of the Bat 🦆🦇 on May 19, 2025 9:06 PM

• Looks like I'm now selling this year =/
  
  Yordan is available - as are some RPs for anyone who would like ratios

  The Back Fields on May 19, 2025 9:05 PM

• I'm not going to petition about player valuation... but I will say that it would be nice to promote some more interaction with trade block activity and messages around the league to market some of these guys that get traded. It's usually in your best interest as sometimes people love guys you hate!

  Pythagorean Regrets on May 19, 2025 9:00 PM

• Friendly reminder that Jared Jones may not pitch again until 2027

  Quack of the Bat 🦆🦇 on May 19, 2025 8:54 PM

  Pythagorean Regrets on May 18, 2025 5:39 AM

• Happy opening day!

  Pythagorean Regrets on March 27, 2025 3:49 PM

• I have removed Jose Ferrer from Durham Bulls and added Jose A Ferrer as the wrong player was imported from CM due to name mismatch.

  Pythagorean Regrets on March 12, 2025 12:30 AM

• Draft complete. Rosters should be updated.

  Pythagorean Regrets on March 12, 2025 12:28 AM

• Hi all, quick summary.
  
  1. Rosters are accurate per Ottoneu in Couchmanagers now.
  2. There are 3 teams with issues because of some kind of data issue in the crash and are ghosts (see discord)
  3. I have given remaining teams up to 4 nominations depending on roster spots to fill (if you have <4 spots you have the noms to fill it, no more)
  
  Thank you all again for your patience and hopefully we can sail home smoothly from here.

  Pythagorean Regrets on March 9, 2025 6:08 AM

• Hi everyone, after a brief break to have some breakfast and brush my hair I have realised that we need some restrictions on previously auctioned players.
  
  Managers who were winning a player in the purge have rights to nominate them at the price listed on the previously won auction for the next 24 hours.
  
  Please do not snipe previously won players.

  Pythagorean Regrets on March 3, 2025 5:53 PM

• Anyone taking advantage of this in anyway i.e by sniping nominations you previously weren't able to make due to roster limits or ongoing costs will be considered both a scoundrel and to have brought shame and dishonour to their team.
  
  If you take any exception to this or feel that it is unfair please reach out to me.

  Pythagorean Regrets on March 3, 2025 4:14 PM

• As it is a manual process to extend and re-order them all one by one and in an effort to make things as simple as possible across all our time zones I have decided that resuming the auction as normal from the last import I did before things went down is the best and most accommodating path forward for all of us.

  Pythagorean Regrets on March 3, 2025 4:13 PM

• Hi all, Couch managers is back.
  
  - I have removed the last 22 finished auctions and posted a screenshot of those auctions in discord.
  - I do not care if you specifially nominate the same players as you did previously.

  Pythagorean Regrets on March 3, 2025 4:11 PM

• Couchmanagers is online again.

  Pythagorean Regrets on February 24, 2025 9:39 PM

• Rosters updated
  
  New noms are 18 hours now.

  Pythagorean Regrets on February 24, 2025 4:34 AM

• HELLLLOOOOOO LEAGUE MEMBERS
  
  The draft is going ok, there’s been a few issues with me being constantly outbid on my beautiful boys but that’s on me not the platform.
  
  In a few hours time I am going to update the countdown timer for nominations to 18 hours from 24 hours. It looks like this will be sufficient time for everyone to still get a stab (keep in mind it will still bounce back up to 8 after being outbid)

  Pythagorean Regrets on February 23, 2025 4:22 PM

• Wait, I didn't get Soto for $16???

  Deferred Money on February 22, 2025 4:30 AM

• I have updated rosters with the won auctions

  Pythagorean Regrets on February 22, 2025 4:07 AM

• For those not checking Discord I had paused the draft as we had a manager miss the early start. I have resumed it now and will proceed as normal

  Pythagorean Regrets on February 20, 2025 2:44 PM

• The draft has been started.

  Pythagorean Regrets on February 19, 2025 3:08 PM

• I have imported keepers, does anyone have any concerns about starting the draft at around this time?

• [Homer voice] Hmmm... jalapeno poppers 😋
  
  Thanks, commish!

  Quack of the Bat 🦆🦇 on February 17, 2025 6:08 PM

• Once everyone is in I will import keepers, check salaries are correct and we can start

  Pythagorean Regrets on February 17, 2025 6:07 PM

• Please join the draft room on Couch Managers - please name your team on Couch Managers the same as on Ottoneu as it greatly assists in matching teams to players for importing our current rosters

• We will be *slow drafting* on Couch Managers this year again. I will setup a draft room and send a link to everyone over the next couple of days.
  
  Once everyone is in the draft room we may be able to kick things off early.

  Pythagorean Regrets on February 14, 2025 4:01 AM

• 18 hours was optimistic because time zones. I think it’s more like 18ish now..?

  Pythagorean Regrets on January 31, 2025 4:49 AM

• Hi all, a couple teams still needing to renew and we are just under 18 hours til the cut deadline!
  
  Next thing we know it’ll be spring training and I’ll be starting my annual rebuild 🙃

  Pythagorean Regrets on January 30, 2025 3:35 PM

• Not long til the cut deadline now everyone. Teams also need to be paid up on or before Jan 31.

  Pythagorean Regrets on January 25, 2025 5:24 PM

• Hi all,
  
  We will be slow auctioning again this year as it’s the best way to balance our time zones. Ideally this will start late Feb as we did last year.
  
  I’m assuming you’re all continuing on for the season so please let me know if you have decided otherwise
  
  Thanks, love to you all

  Pythagorean Regrets on January 16, 2025 3:01 PM

• The seal has been broken!

  Quack of the Bat 🦆🦇 on November 20, 2024 1:21 PM

• Arb deadline is almost here!

  Pythagorean Regrets on November 13, 2024 1:28 PM

• Hi all, still a few teams left to do arb! You have a few more days but please try to get it done by the deadline on the 14th of November

  Pythagorean Regrets on November 7, 2024 3:08 AM

• Keen for another year, even though I still have no idea what I'm doing :). Go Dodgers!

  The Back Fields on November 2, 2024 1:03 AM

• I'll be back for next season! Looking forward to a full season of 4x4.

  Bite My Glorious Golden Bats on November 1, 2024 8:32 AM

• I was on the IR for the last half of the season but am paid up and will be back and ready to dominate the race for the bottom. Thanks. Marty.

  Joe Foy's Disciples on October 30, 2024 11:29 AM

• Hi all, apologies I have been away and then sick so have been ignoring my commissioner duties.
  
  I'm going to assume everyone is happy to carry on managing their team so just a friendly reminder that arbitration has started and the deadline is 14 November.

  Pythagorean Regrets on October 19, 2024 6:01 PM

• I already paid for 2025. Let‘s go.

  Berlin Strawberries 🍓 on October 14, 2024 11:59 PM

• I'll be back

  The Back Fields on October 14, 2024 4:57 PM

• I'm in and paid for, boss!

  Quack of the Bat 🦆🦇 on October 14, 2024 3:25 PM

• Hi all, just wanted to remind you all that arbitration opens up in a few days. Is everyone continuing on to next season with the league?

  Pythagorean Regrets on October 12, 2024 3:59 PM

• Congrats to the Ducks!

  The Back Fields on October 1, 2024 9:44 PM

• Congrats! Amazing season. 92 out of 96 points. It will be difficult to make things a bit more interesting in 2025.

  Berlin Strawberries 🍓 on October 1, 2024 9:46 AM

• Hey, only because *you're* living in the future doesn't mean everyone else is!
  
  Thanks, 4x4 is a special kind of stressful, felt like Mike was going to pass me until around the asb then after that I was certain Christian would.
