nope, you are right - they are both on your team. i just missed them.
-
I have jt realmuto and luisangel acuna written down, but those might have been unfinished bids. I assume anything that was active will be scratched?
-
my team looks good
-
waiting on 2 more managers to get back to me: triples is best and lion's pride
everyone else please check your roster on Couch Managers and let me know if something looks off. thanks-
-
not Olson, Alonso lol
-
and Olson
-
I had Carroll and machado
-
I had Vladimir Guerrero Jr., Francisco Lindor, Adley Rutschman, Justin Steele, and CJ Abrams.
Been getting antsy to draft so happy that we're almost back
-
FYI: The board truncated the Batter and Pitcher lists.
I think I had landed Ozuna, Adames, Raleigh, Skenes, Clase

I have Colt Keith recorded (for $10, you're right) just missed him in the message.
going to start populating rosters for the folks that have confirmed their players.
-
I didn't see you have Colt Keith on the list, I'm pretty sure he was $10. Also, definitely not in favor of restarting the draft
-
I had Colt Keith, Elly, Duran, JRam, Wheeler and Grayson Rodriguez
-
yes, I have all the final prices on my end just do not know what teams got which players.
-
I had soto, diaz, vientos, ketel marte, manaea, and seth lugo. Do you have final prices? Because i dont remember those.
-
i do not want to restart unless we absolutely have to. i think a re-roll of the auction and knowing how the league values players in $s changes things and will leave some people with a bad taste in their mouth.
thanks to the folks that have messaged me with your players already. hopefully will be able to get restarted in the next hour or so.

all-
I have good news and bad news. the good news is that couch managers is back up. the bad news is that it looks like all the data from our draft is gone.
thankfully because I am a bit of a lunatic, I actually was keeping track of who was drafted and for how much. what i dont have however is what teams got which player. of you can kindly let me know what players you had drafted, i can preload teams and adjust settings and try to get things back running shortly.
-
correct. but who knows if it went through with the server on the brink at that point.
i was tracking who was being auctioned and for how much though, so we'll figure it out.
-
If i remember right, the auction was already paused before the site went down, right?
-
hoping Couch Managers has an update today and we can resume the draft this weekend. fingers crossed...
considering the lost time, when the site is back-up I am going to make the draft setting changes noted below immediately. I will let people know when I plan to resume the draft so people can lock back in.
to-be updated draft clock: 12 hour auction clock with 6 hour resets and then an overnight pause from 10a-6a EST
-
latest from that previously referenced thread about Couch Managers:
"The server has indeed crashed. Mike is working with the hosting company on figuring out next steps."
may be a little bit fellas...

-
still some lag on the Couch Managers site. going to give it a little longer to make sure things are squared away.
-
thanks for the feedback. I will adjust the draft settings to a 12 hour auction clock with 6 hour resets and then an overnight pause from 10a-6a EST. the pause will begin at 10p tonight and the draft clock adjustments (12hrs/6hrs) will begin tomorrow. want to give people time for the change.
i know 12 hours may still be long for some people but lets see how it is for a day or two and then we decide if we want to go down to 8 hours. halving the initial clock should help speed things
-
I'm also good with speeding it up. 8 hour start time with a sleep timer is good. Probably a 6 or 8 hour reset with a new high bidder. It should move along a bit faster. Also, once we get down to the end of the draft we'll want those $1 and $2 players to go through as soon as possible rather than 24hrs.
-
Seems ok on couch
-
Maybe 8 with 4 hour resets and then a pause from 10p - 8a ?
-
I think you’re right about keeping it at 8 hours. Can get through 360+ (likely more) players before the 18th. Also allows balance between east and west coast time zones.
-
I’m good with speeding up the clock but think 4 hours is too drastic. I’d be comfortable with 8
-
Ok- I paused the auction just to see if they can get things sorted . Dont want players to tick-off the clock without people being able to bid or see what is happening. Will evaluate in a few hours.
Will also give folks time to chime in on speeding-up the draft clock, pausing overnight, etc.
-
Couch managers is working, but very slow/delayed. Refreshing crashes the page. Been on and off last couple hours.
-
thanks for the feedback- I will wait for others to chime-in on the draft. don't need total consensus, but just want to make sure no one feels strongly opposed for some reason. happy to make the change if others feel the same.
re: Couch Managers, the site is up for me (desktop and mobile). can a few others check as well?
-
I second faster clock, overnight pause. Maybe 4 hours?
-
Looks like Couch Managers is down - not loading for me.
In regards to tweaking the draft, I think moving to speeding up the clock and turning it off during the night would be a good idea, in my opinion.
-
Not sure- I did the same and my noms didnt go through automatically either. I can inquire tomorrow.
After two days of the slow draft, what are peoples thoughts? Anything need to be tweaked?
-
I queued some players last night and it seems like it didn’t automatically nominate them. Am I missing a setting somewhere to toggle auto-nominations?
-
All- as the initial bunch of players are starting to come-off the board, please make sure to backfill your nominations. we want to have 36 players nominated at all times (3 for each manager) to make sure the draft moves along. thanks.

2. If you’re leading the bid, the pass button effectively doesn’t do anything. It won’t undo your bid, so you’ll still be leading. Pass is just saying “I won’t be making any further bids beyond what I’ve already done”
-
I got some answers, i asked on ottoneu forum : 1. Passing on Couch Managers just indicates that you no longer are interested in that player, if all 11 managers not currently leading the bidding on that player hit Pass, then the auction ends early. Using that Pass button isn’t permanent, you can undo it at any time until the auction ends.
-
There have been a few questions about the function of the "Pass" button on Couch Managers and how it works. I have reached out to the Admin on that site about it and will respond back once I hear from them.
Additionally, wanted to flag that there may be instances where a Players position in Ottoneu is different than what is on Couch Managers. Please be aware of the position of the player you are bidding on Ottoneu as that is the platform that we are competing on. than
-
i take it back again. the draft has begun.
please nominate your 3 players and happy bidding.
-
I take it back. Couch Managers will not left me begin the draft until the lobby is full.
we are now waiting on Pitt23Panther and Lions Pride.
if you all can leave the browser open even if you step away from your computer, that would be appreciated. hoping to get this going shortly.
-
fair points.
i want to be cognizant of everyone's time and limit the waiting to begin the draft, however I am a bit worried about starting without all 12 managers present initially in-case someone is not aware of the start of the auction and misses bidding on the initial round of players.
hoping everyone joins the draft room in the next few minutes. i'll message the folks not in directly and either way, will begin at 8:15p
sorry for the delay.
-
Yea I think there’s a long enough timer that we don’t all need to be in to start
-
Given the auctions are 24 hours, I doubt everyone will all be in at the same time
-
waiting on Lions Pride and Average Joes. if you gentlemen can kindly join CM that would be appreciated.
