• I'd suggest starting drafting next year, probably January or February. I'm not even sure projections get released until the new year. But we could use the time to block out dates well in advance when people's schedules are more free.

• Nah, I just had to enter a date so I put that down as a tentative date. I have to admit I'm a little anxious to see what my roster might look like (never done an auction draft before), so personally I'd like to try to get it done as soon as possible. Also, the Ottoneu experts suggested we use this time advantage we have and try to do at least a few live rounds before we move to slow draft. But I'm cool with whatever we decide as a league, any suggestions?

• Could be the default date (ie straight after arb)? I was assuming it would be next year

• Icaro, is the draft date (Nov 14) set the final date?

• Hey league, we're still short the two owners (Mike and Ron), I've sent them a reminder. Ron said he's busy moving but asked for the link again, so he should be signing up soon. We'll give them a couple more days, then look in the community forums if we have to.

• Yikes, you guys are willing to wake up at 6/7 am just for a fantasy draft? I would totally do the same =D
  I looked at one of these world clock sites, and the Australia/Germany time diff is now 15 hours in October and comes down to 14 hours in November, so 6 am/8 pm or 7 am/9 pm in the latter.
  Ben (Gray Sox) is on as co-commissioner. We're sill waiting on two owners to join from our email list, one is Mike who's been replying pretty often so I'm pretty sure he'll get on soon.

• Yeah, I be fine with an early Sunday morning Australian time draft.

  Mad SD Dogs on October 8, 2021 6:44 AM

• The draft time would be at 8 pm in Europe. That is perfect. Can't say too much about the date. There is always something going with kids and family stuff. But right now, it looks really good.

• An Auction draft will take a couple hours from experience in a non-ottoneu setting. I am happy to do a Saturday or Sunday morning draft, I think 6AM Aussie time is 3-4PM Brazil/NYC time?

• For the draft days, Saturday nights US time would work the best for us Aussies (and that is Sunday morning for us). Not sure how that fits in with Europe time. I also work every second weekend, but am fully available the weekends I don't work.

• Hahaha! Two Eephus teams! I'll change my name. Didn't see it until after I signed up.

• Btw, the "draft day" above is a tentative date. Over the next couple of days we should try to find a date that would work for everyone, at least to get us started... Niv really recommends us doing a live draft, at least for the first couple of rounds, and we can pause and restart the draft anytime. We can even go into the season with less than 40 players and do smaller in-season drafts if we have to. https://community.ottoneu.com/t/best-draft-dates-tools/10189

• Testing, testing... welcome to Season 1 of the Ottoneu World Order. I hope this league eventually becomes the ultimate dynasty experience we were all looking for when we came up on Ottoneu. I expect us to learn a lot from each other and the site, laught a lot, and engage in cut-throat competition until the very last out in early October. All while keeping it clean and respectful (but I don't even have to say that because I can tell already we've got a good group here). Let's do this!
