• Heads up that the Red Sox game starts at 11am tomorrow… that game sneaks up on weekly roster leagues every year.

  Know Your Werth on April 20, 2025 9:46 AM

• Thanks to QDFA for a very stressful few weeks. Hopefully things will be good next year as CM's new server seems to have worked well.

  Alcatraz Sea Lions on March 16, 2025 7:41 PM

• As will I, Thank you though

  El Paso Chihuahuas on March 16, 2025 7:32 PM

• Same with me. Thanks, Quick, for all your work on this auction!

  The Mice That Roared on March 16, 2025 3:18 PM

• Thanks, Quick. I'm going to leave my last roster spot open.

  Lindenwood Stars on March 16, 2025 3:07 PM

• I declare that the 2025 Dinger Derby Draft is done with three exceptions. Sharks, El Paso and Lindenwood, you can each name one player that I will add to your team for 1 dollar. I just wanted to finish this. Otherwise, teams can auction, cut and trade as you wish. Thank you for your patience and perserverance in all of this. Good luck to all this season.

  Quick and the DFAed on March 16, 2025 2:53 PM

• That was weird. He is on your roster, so he shouldn’t have been able to be bid on. I’ve removed him from Bacardi’s roster in Couchmanagers. Fun, fun, fun.

  Quick and the DFAed on March 14, 2025 9:23 AM

• Hey everyone Josue Depaula on the dodgers appears to have been bid on but he is on my roster, I had kept him from last year, I just wanted to bring this to the commissioner's attention

  El Paso Chihuahuas on March 14, 2025 7:24 AM

• I'm taking screen shots and downloading CSV files as well.

  Quick and the DFAed on March 11, 2025 9:00 PM

• From what I undertsand he was a bit hung out to dry by his old hosting company. According to Niv they badly provisioned a new server and then wanted to charge him $300 ph to solve the issues so he jumped ship and it took a few extra days. In all cases I'm saving CSV files!

  Alcatraz Sea Lions on March 11, 2025 7:34 PM

• I'm surprised Couchmanagers is still hanging in there. This is like Indiana Jones. We gotta get out before the cave fully collapses.

  Breaking BABIP on March 11, 2025 4:49 PM

• At least this has all saved someone the pain of rostering Gerrit Cole!

  Lindenwood Stars on March 10, 2025 9:51 AM

• Thanks for all your efforts, Quick.

  Lindenwood Stars on March 10, 2025 9:49 AM

• They say 3rd time is charm. Good luck everyone!

  Breaking BABIP on March 10, 2025 9:49 AM

• Sounds good. Thank you commish

  Breaking BABIP on March 9, 2025 10:58 PM

• The draft should start on its own tomorrow at 8 AM EDT. I propose we give it a couple of days. The auctions will go very fast with 10 hour times. If we’re unhappy in a few days, then we stop and revert to a standard Ottoneu auction. It’s my best way forward.

  Quick and the DFAed on March 9, 2025 9:53 PM

• Yep I think I'd prefer one more try at the slow draft if I had to choose.....but if decision is made for live I can do it in the evening on the 13th/14th/17th or any time on 16th

  Maple Leafs on March 9, 2025 9:19 PM

• It's a real bummer about all of these Couchmanager headaches. I prefer trying to restart the slow draft with a compressed schedule, but if we want to go live, March 13 and 17 should be fine for me.

  Lindenwood Stars on March 9, 2025 9:03 PM

• Thanks commish - I'm happy with either. If we go for live then the 13/16/17 all work for me

  Moneyballers on March 9, 2025 8:46 PM

• Sorry for all the frustrations Quick, thanks for the work in trying to get this thing going. I also am fine with whatever consensus is. I do like the slow draft process (maybe shorten times like BABIP said) but definitely not super confident in CM right now ....also fine with a regular draft as long as it is in the evening or weekend.

  Maple Leafs on March 9, 2025 11:57 AM

• I am significantly less pissed than I was yesterday. Good night’s sleep etc. I have reset the draft room. If we want to try a third time, we can start any time. Auction times would be 10 hours with 5 hour extensions. I will be actively backing up the data. Otherwise I am available March 13, 14, 17 and the afternoon of the 16 for a standard Ottoneu draft.

  Quick and the DFAed on March 9, 2025 11:53 AM

• Sorry this has been such a headache commish. I’m down for whatever the consensus is. Slow draft is fun but also feel the pressure of the regular season rapidly approaching. I have a feeling CM will go down again at some point, but just wondering if you are open to making a platform pivot, maybe Fantrax or ClickyDraft? (I can make a regular auction if we go with that option.)

  Breaking BABIP on March 9, 2025 1:13 AM

• I think i could make a regular draft but I would feel sorry for those that cannot make it. Can I recommend 12h with a 6hr extension. I think we can all log in once in 12 hours But also very important please do not bid on other noms until you have used up all your noms. Lastly if Commish needs a hand on the CM side or uploading to Ottoneu on a regular basis i have no problems helping

  Alcatraz Sea Lions on March 9, 2025 12:00 AM

• Option two: we schedule a regular draft. That may mean some teams need proxy drafters.
  To be honest, I've had it with couchmasters. However, if you want the couchmasters experience, we can try one more time.

  Quick and the DFAed on March 8, 2025 10:06 PM

• There is no good news. Couchmanagers is back, but anything that was done after the first crash is lost. Gone. Since we restarted on Tuesday, the whole restarted draft is gone. The results you see are from the stub draft from last Saturday at 1PM until about Sunday at 2 PM. We can't do anything with those. We can either start from scratch on couchmanagers with an accelerated schedule. I would have to import the the winning auctions regularly as a safety measure.

  Quick and the DFAed on March 8, 2025 10:06 PM

• Can i propose we maybe go to removing the night pause? I am sure we can all check at least once in 24 hours to see if a player is nominated?

  Alcatraz Sea Lions on March 8, 2025 8:06 PM

• Couchmanagers is back online

  Breaking BABIP on March 8, 2025 6:17 PM

• When couchmanagers comes back up, I will reset the time on all auction to noon today. We will then continue on couchmanagers until we are finished or couchmanagers gives up totally. I will be taking backup steps so that minimal data loss can occur. When couchmanagers comes back up, do not make a bid or nominate a player until I give you the all clear. I am more frustrated than any of you.

  Quick and the DFAed on March 6, 2025 8:29 PM

• From Niv regarding Couchmanagers down......The server has indeed crashed. Mike is working with the hosting company on figuring out next steps.

  Kramerica Industries on March 6, 2025 2:36 PM

• We restart tomorrow at 9:00 AM EST, the fates willing. Thank you for your patience.

  Quick and the DFAed on March 3, 2025 8:18 PM

• The sooner the better!

  Alcatraz Sea Lions on March 3, 2025 7:30 PM

• I'm good. Lets do it! Thanks for figuring this out commish

  Breaking BABIP on March 3, 2025 7:18 PM

• My team looks good, I’m ready! 👍

  BACARDI🦇BATS on March 3, 2025 6:22 PM

• I have reset the couchmanagers auction site. We are going to restart. The numbers and dollar figures once again match. Please check. And when do you want me to take my finger off the pause button?

  Quick and the DFAed on March 3, 2025 6:19 PM

• !**

  RocketScience on March 3, 2025 5:43 PM

• I'm good with anything?

  RocketScience on March 3, 2025 5:43 PM

• Agreed. I'm down to proceed with whatever you guys decide.

  Breaking BABIP on March 3, 2025 4:59 PM

• CM is back online but, of course all the ongoing auctions have closed. As this is nothing but a huge pain in the ass for our Commish I will defer to your better judgement on how you would like to proceed. Reset completely or partial reset

  Alcatraz Sea Lions on March 3, 2025 1:12 PM

• We’re going to restart the auction. There is no other choice.

  Quick and the DFAed on March 3, 2025 1:10 PM

• Couchmanagers is back online

  Breaking BABIP on March 3, 2025 12:52 PM

• There's a thread on the community site. They tried to move servers, and the new server immediately failed.

  Quick and the DFAed on March 3, 2025 10:42 AM

• Seems like it
