I threw it all down just in case anyone was trying to go all in for Yordan.

“All in-season auctions are Vickrey auctions with blind bidding. The player is awarded to the team that makes the highest bid, and the player's salary is $1 more than the second highest bid. If there are no other bids, the player is awarded for $1 or the player's cap penalty if applicable. If two teams are tied for the highest bid, the player salary is that amount. If no one bids at all, the nominating team is awarded the player for $1 or the player's cap penalty if applicable“

You can be 100 on everyone but if you’re the highest bidder “the system” only bids $1 more than the next highest bidder to win the auction.
It’s not the same as FAAB where everyone just blind bids.
It’s explained better than I can do on the rules page of the site here.

I'm curious - why did the salary for Yordan get set at $25 when Schwelly won the auction at $37?

Make sone bets to see what my next move is…

Grabbing some popcorn for the impending Schwelly cuts…😇
-
Just wanted to remind everyone that 30 days after you drop someone, you can reauction them, win, cut them again, and you get half the salary back. Or if someone else wins the auction, you get all of the salary back. Save some cap space…
Back to your regularly scheduled baseball…

It's THAT time...
-
Got it. Gracias!
-
Schwelly it is in an hour and 30. Currently 5:30 EST, draft set at 7:00 EST. I feel your pain on the time change!

Is the drft in 30 minutes or an hopur and 30 minutes? Daylight Savings has me all messed up.
-
Anybody interested in doing a zoom call at the beginning for the first few picks? Would be cool to put some faces to the teams.
-
One more sleep (and time change) away from the draft!!!
-
I do NF BC slow drafts, but no more than two hour ones. 4 hours is painful. Unless it's in Novjember/December. Gives me a chance to research.
-
Yeah, not a fan of slow drafts, in general...
-
I'm excited for this auction. I joined another Ottoneu that uses a slow auction, and man is that painful.

It's almost time...!
-
Jumping back in here to give everyone a reminder we are almost a week away from our initial draft. If anyone is doing some "homework" to prep for it and has questions about anything with the process/league/etc., just let me know!
-
ARF, I have been thinking about it. This is only my 3rd hear with Ottoneu, I don't know much about that league.

Been going down the Ottoneu rabbit hole the last few days. The Prestige League thing is interesting – I'm curious whether anyone in this league also does that.

Welcoming a new manager to take over Humongous Melonheads…everyone say hi to Andrew.
-
Hate to hear it HM but fully understand...best wishes to you and good luck.
Everyone else, if you know someone that can jump in, feel free to invite them. I will also post the available team in the appropriate channels with Ottoneu.
-
Hey fellas - sorry to have to do this - something has come up in my professional life that won't allow me to stay in the league this year. Really appreciate the start we've had, gutted to not be able to keep going but there's no workaround here.

Anyone have an issue with the current date?

Cream Team finally moved Pablo!
-
Excited to see the 15-20 $35 and up guys get dropped in the next few days.
-
Just reminding everyone about the keeper deadline on the 31st real quick. All trades and penalty free cuts are also due by then. 8 days left to reshape your roster prior to the draft.
-
hooray for other team dropping people. I cant wait for the other 6 teams that are $200 over the cap to drop players.
-
We still have less than half the league that has responded to the draft date poll. Please use the Doodle link to share your availability for the draft so that we can lock in a draft date.
Also a reminder that Jan 31st is the keeper deadline. You have until then to make trades and/or penalty free drops from your roster. After the 31st, your rosters are set until the draft. You must have at least $1 in cap space for each empty roster spot and you must be under the cap and at 40 playe
-
That doodle link asks for a lot of permissions to data on anything your connected to, like other devices at your home or office. It says you can reject all but more than half of them are "always active" those you can't turn off. So I can do any Saturday in March regardless of the time. Week days are very busy for me.
-
If everyone can hit the Doodle link to fill in your draft date availability, it would be appreciated. The sooner everyone responds, the sooner we can nail down a draft date.
Thanks, y’all…
