I have to disagree. I’ve done three this year and they are so painfully slow it made me want to give up. I think it works if you need a few players but not if you need more than four or five. Never again for me.
-
If we can't have our auction Saturday. we should definitely consider a slow auction. I just did a slow Ottoneu auction and it was great. Perfect for leagues like ours that aren't startups. ://fantasy.fangraphs.com/thinking-about-auctions-fast-and-slow-logistics-and-details/

Heard from a potential owner yesterday. Hopefully they will claim Tons of Runs today and we can still have our auction on Saturday.
-
I really hate to move the auction date since finding another date will be a challenge, but also don't think we can have one with an unclaimed team and players that would be added to the free agent pool. Everyone do what you can to find another owner. If we don't have one by Friday at 5PM, we will postpone the auction.
-
Are we still drafting Saturday if the one team is still not claimed?
-
Auction will be held Saturday March 2, 2024 at 8:00 EST. No date was unanimous in the survey, this date was available for all but one.
-
Three more days to complete the survey....

Please complete the form to give your input regarding the date/time of the auction. I'll do my best to accommodate everyone but that may be impossible.
-
Reminder: Cuts are due by end of day tomorrow (1/31). Three owners still need to renew for the year. We'll look at draft dates soon.
-
Sorry I;m not able to play in this league I think the commish needs to cut me, good luck with the season

Welcome Dave Stapleton All-Stars!

Arbitration ends today!!! Please complete arbitration even if you're not returning next season.

Happy to take over for the team formerly known as "Wham Bam Goodbye Sam." First time playing Ottoneu. Looking to be active and make the team my own!

Don't forget arbitration...

Too many things going on in my life, got to bring down number of Ottoneu leagues, so please abandon this team.
-
I removed everyone’s commissioner privileges because I think it is dangerous to have 11 commissioners and not know who is making updates to the league. This wasn’t a coup. I’m willing to hand the reins over if someone is interested.
-
Welcome Pine Tar Rags!
Too bad Bunt for a Hit didn’t stick around to see the SSN requirement has been removed. I see he made us all commissioners. I’m willing to take the role unless someone else really wants it.
-
Greetings - I just claimed the old "Bunt for a Hit" team. Looking forward to the challenge!

I will not be part of Ottonue next season. I don’t agree with the new payment format (required to submit your SSN for a non prize money League). So if some one wants to assume the Commissioner of the league I will transfer the duties before the current season ends to assure a smooth transition. I would like to thank you all for your participation and good luck to all.

I just want to wish everyone luck this season. (because we all know luck plays a significant part). Let’s have some fun, I think the no shift and the “clock”, will add a new dimension to the game. Now, let the auctions and the trades begin.

Well, we are down one manager. If we don’t have a full compliment of managers by Saturday morning, I will put the draft off for one week.

It looks like the draft is scheduled for Sunday - is it happening then, or is that just a placeholder?

For those of you who haven’t done so already. There is only one week left to renew your team for the 2023 season.

Thanks... got the W in my big money league too so I'm enjoying life. Would like for everyone to do arbitration, make some offseason trades and keep the league active. Always fun!

Kungrats Krushers!

Shoopy was banned from Fangraphs by Niv for cheating within the parameters of the TOS. The team was picked up and Niv and his team took care of all the administrative procedures for a smooth transition to keep our league whole. That’s all I can tell you because that is all I know.

I think if a owner abandons a team it goes to a first come first serve kind of thing. Anyone can become the new owner and start making moves. The team is paid for so it's basically a free team for the rest of the season.
-
Anyone know what is going on with Shoopy's team? I saw it was abandoned and then it looks like it had a new manager and now there are a bunch of moves happening?

I have another auction on 4/3. I'm ok with 27th, 29th or 31st, but suggest that we move to 8 EDT (if not 3/27) to accommodate Bullpen Beers and any other west coast owners.

27th works for me
