Same here

is the couchmanager site suddenly not loading properly for any of you? It was fine for me this morning, but now, nothing.

Auction is live. The first two guys are up for bid. Each player will be available for a minimum of 24 hours, so all players regardless of time zone will have a shot. Good luck everyone!

I'll be starting the auction within the next hour. Good luck to all!!

There's an 8 hour extension to the clock for higher bids. The small sleep window is just a tiny buffer to prevent a bargain from "sneaking" thru in the wee hours. And even setting that small of a window often can be unfair if we have some league members located outside of North America.

I have not looked at the settings. Is there an overnight pause from 2am to 7am EST?
Most slow auctions I have done do not use any overnight pause. The auction clock is typically long enough to avoid any problems. With an 8- or 9-hout auction reset, you should see overbids before the auction ends. Unless someone is outside the continental US, then it can become a problem.

Is there any way we can set the auction to have more sleep time? 2 eastern to 7 eastern doesn't seem like much of a realistic sleep window.

Awesome, thanks commish!

With 168 open roster spots in the league, we'll go ahead and start the slow auction this week. I wish there were no early games in tokyo, so that we could see more spring training action before completing our rosters. I even thought about ignoring those two games and doing the auction much later. But I was in a couple of leagues last year that came down the very last day. Every game counts. So we're starting around 10am eastern on Tuesday of this week. Good luck to everyone!!

If anyone is looking to add another team, here is one that is available in another league I'm in. Check it out if you're interested and claim it. Thanks! https://ottoneu.fangraphs.com/1326/team/9147

Rosters are updated in couchmanagers. Please check yours when you get an opportunity to make sure it worked as designed. We'll settle on a start date soon. The goal is to get the auction done prior to the opening games in Tokyo.

We joined the auction. I think we were the only team missing so we could import the players now.

Only 2 teams left to join the auction, and we can import the keepers.

A reminder that you can change your team name in couch managers to your team name here in the league. It is found in the "Auction Settings" dialogue box on the auction screen.
This is helpful for the commish who will have to import our rosters into couch managers.

Link to join slow draft - https://www.couchmanagers.com/auctions/?auction_id=1027 Once everyone is joined, I'll work on importing all the keepers currently rostered. After that's done and verified, we'll settle on a start date.

Sounds good. Love a slow draft, as it's impossible to get 4 people in my family on the same schedule, let alone 12 strangers in different parts of the world.
-
I thinks it's pretty clear we'll need to do a slow draft for this league to avoid schedule conflicts. The 12 managers in this league are managers of a combined number of 169 different teams. 🤣🤣🤣 I'll get it setup soon and we'll set a start date near the end of the month.

Everyone is legal. Outstanding! Next step is determining the auction draft format and date. I'll send out something in the coming week to gauge what works best for the group. thank you all, and good luck this season!!

4 hours until the deadline. All teams in the league have paid renewal fee. Thank you!! All teams except one are already under the 40 player/$400 limit.

Hey, I want to abandon my team. I PM'd both commissioners over the winter and neither responded. Please abandon this team and give it a good home.
-
5 teams have not yet paid for renewal. Please do so before deadline. The free cut deadline is just a week away. Throw out some last minute trade offers and get all rosters below the 40/400 limits before then please. Thank you!!

I stay so far behind on so many things these days. (I may be too involved in business and family. But a contributing factor is certainly way way too many Ottoneu leagues! 😂) So I have neglected to get around to congratulating winners. Today I say congrats to GF Chauncey for a fine victory! He was paid $500 for winning the league. I intend to do the same thing for next season. So be sure and participate in arbitration to punish your opponents, and keep the league competitive. Thank you!!

Congrats to Chaunceys and our other top finishers.
It was a good good season for my first in the league. Looking forward to many more!
The off-season starts today! Don't forget to get your arb bids in.

Congratulations to GF Chaunceys for a great season and a formidable team. Same to Jacksnipes and to the rest of the managers. Well played! Offseason trades anyone?

If anyone is into fantasy hockey - I run a league that has 3 spots open. It's a dynasty league that mimics Ottoneu as much as possible ($400 - big rosters - etc). Let me know if interested. Auction next Sunday. It's going into year 2 and all the teams that are open have great keeper options.
-
$6 Royce Lewis is on the block. Looking for SP or OF.

Seager is on the block (looking for one good SP, one good RP and a decent MI)
-
The 2023 champ is dead and ready to sell. Come get Lindor, Semien, Rooker, Cole and any other veterans you might want for your 2024 run. We are looking for cheap players that will produce in 2025. Willing to make loans to pay for a portion of salaries.

I am selling. All the big salary pieces are on the trade block. Smaller salary guys are negotiable, but moving the large salaries for future assets is my priority.

Deepest sympathy to you and family, hope to see you next year
-
Hey all, due to a loss in the family, I’m going to need to take a step back from fantasy baseball this season. I think it is best if my team is marked as abandoned so a willing manager can take over. I hope to be back next season if there is availability!
-
I went pretty heavy on current hitters and ended up with some depth. Willing to move some current hitters for futures (hitter or pitcher).
-
Works now. Thanks.
-
try now
-
Agreed. Thanks for the hard work.
Since the auction was done off the Ottoneu platform, I think commishes now need to mark it as done, and that will allow trade offers to be made.
-
Thanks for handling
-
I added the 3 that didn't import and removed the "other Zach Veen", so we should be all set. let me know if you see anything else amiss.
-
uhh are there two zac veens?
https://www.fangraphs.com/players/zachary-veen/sa3020339/stats?position=P
https://www.fangraphs.com/players/zachary-veen/sa3014516/stats?position=OF
-
yeah those are the 3; the import csv doesn't have an ottoneu id for them. and Larry it's because Veen didn't import to CM, so I had manually added him, so he must have duplicated on import. thanks for the call out.
-
Ottoneu says I have one too many players but that makes no sense
-
Check Jung-Hoo Kee, Matsui and Imanaga
Thanks commish!
