Good to go here

I'm good.
-
Still good here
-
Has everyone read the league update, is everyone good for the season, and do we still all want to draft next Sunday? Please air any concerns. Thanks.
-
Just to echo my co-commish's note, there are only four days left to make cuts.
-
Reminder keeper deadline is next Friday.
-
Sounds fine. thx for getting everything going early.

Works for me. Thanks for being flexible.
-
Is 8pm EST ok with everyone?
-
Agreed. With a 15 month old, a little later is better. Also prefer Sunday to Saturday if possible.
-
Same as Gambler.

I have 3 small kids, 8 pm ET or later would work best for me, especially if it will only take two hours. That said, if everyone else wants the afternoon time, I will make it work.
-
Last year's draft started at 17:03 and ended at 18:30. We had a bit more turnover this year than last so that could increase a bit, but if we go over 2 hours that's a long draft by our standards. I'd budget 2-3 just in case something weird happens like there's an Ottoneu server issue (often happens on the last weekend before the season, though it's been better the last few years) or other.
-
Happy New Year everyone. Time to talk auction day and time. March 26 is opening day, that is a Thursday. In the past we have generally done a weekend with a late-afternoon start time. Does anyone have an objection to March 22 at 4PM Eastern Time / 1PM Pacific? I think at least one of our owners has mentioned being new to Ottoneu, for a draft in a league like ours that's been around a while with many long-term owners, you need not budget much more than 3 hours.
-
Perfect. Just paid. First time trying Ottoneu. Love dynasty leagues, this format looks really interesting.
-
Absolutely. Welcome to the league. Please just make payment prior to any moves. Also note that we require members re-up 10 days following the world series to help the integrity of the offseason.
-
I'm not the commissioner, but it should be good. Welcome to the league!

Hey league. I'm willing to take on the challenge of this last place team. I just want to make sure it is ok before I make payment. Thanks!
-
Figure it out, Commish.

We still need an owner for Dirty Anibal Sanchez.
-
Trade has been cancelled
-
Penhook is making a true and accurate statement :)
-
The recent trade I made with the Gambler is going to be reversed. There was a glitch and the trade that was accepted was actually one I declined but was resent as a counter. The Gambler, if you can confirm then commissioner can cancel. Sorry all for the confusion.

Just read the payment rules. I am paid up.
-
Hello everyone. I took over the Kenny Rogers theme and changed names, but stuck with the original owner’s intent. I am now open for trades. I took the team because of the pitching staff. It is loaded. I am willing to deal from that depth for some offense.
-
Arb deadline tonight!
-
Looks like Kenny Rogers Rooster has abandoned his team. This means that we need two owners. Anyone have any leads?
-
I'm going to make Dirty Anibal Sanchez available he has not been on the site in months and is not replying to messages asking if he's still playing.
-
1/ If you are new to the league, hello and welcome. Our Ottoneu league is several years old and still has several original members. We have a couple rules re payment that are unique.
-
2/ The owners who departed this off-season have set arbitration allocations already. They did this to ensure competitive balance in the event the team was not picked up by a new owner before the close of arb.
-
3/ Our league requires all new owners, regardless of the time in the season, to pay for the following season upon joining. We do this as a $100 league to ensure the only members are those who are serious about playing the league. The off-season is not a time for you to try out our league and make arb allocations, cuts, and trades for a team you don’t intend to keep.
-
4/ You must pay to renew the team for next season within 48 hours of joining this league and will be removed if you do not
-
5/ Additionally the commissioners then have to un-do any moves you make, so again: please make no cuts, trades, or arb changes until you have renewed the team for the 2020 season.
-
6/ In all future seasons, renewal for the following year is due ten days after the end of the World Series. We view the arb period as part of the upcoming year not the past one, this is the purpose of this timeline. Any questions, please reach out to either of the commissioners.
-
After a long reign at or near the top, BLLB is departing. We now have three teams avail. Current owners of these teams: please assign arb money in the name of competitive balance in the next day or two if you have not yet done so and I will then flag the teams as abandoned. Thanks!
-
I actually have one owner that’s committed to taking a team.
-
Musial also let me know that they are not returning. So we need at least two owners.
-
Charros is not renewing. Anyone have a friend to take over before it gets abandoned for the public?
-
Congrats to the top 3! BLLB's streak of top 3 continues.
-
Congrats to the top 3! Tried to make it interesting, but definitely a good job by Chief, Charros, and Law Blog. Thanks Dodgeville, I think we did get 4 teams in the top 50, too. Should be a fun offseason.
-
Way to Bend It this year Chief! watching to see if the kenny powers and & charros can not be bored into 3rd by the droning of the bob's law blog ... pulling for the lollygaggers to be 4th team in league to reach global leaderboard. thx for great year all. ps ..going to rangers game today .. will be guy in ottoneu jersey
-
Congrats in advance to the top three. Time for my annual reminder that per our league rules renewals for next year are due 10 days after the World Series ends to have all owners locked in for the arb period. Anyone planning to leave, please DM me so I know not to bother you. Also anyone who will not renew by that time, you should either A. not participate in arbitration so the new owner can if we get a new owner, or B. participate in arb if we have no new owner as arb closes to level the field.
-
That Alonso trade is a fantastic trade y’all
-
Would like to acquire a starting 2B before trade deadline. Let me know if you have one willing to trade.

I'm finally ready to waive the white flag this year. Listening to offers for Freeman and Springer. Other players likely aren't on the table but would perhaps listen if the deal were right. Looking for high value young guys w/ favorable contracts.
-
Actively seeking a C on the trade market.
