• Hi Guys. My name's Ray and I've taken over Bob Loblaw.

• Saw the messages; I'm having trouble replying on my work computer so I will respond when I'm on my regular computer either tonight or tomorrow--sorry for the delay.

  Corn Cobb TV on April 27, 2011 5:07 PM

• Rabbi - I sent you a message in response to your post on possible trades.

  Zeezils on April 26, 2011 10:52 AM

• Others - I posted a message on the Fangraphs forum about getting a new owner, so we'll see if anyone's interested.

  Zeezils on April 26, 2011 10:51 AM

• There's nothing to be done about Bob Lablaw, is there? His team is screwing up the score board.

  Butch Bando on April 26, 2011 1:35 AM

• I'm looking for some OF help. I'm willing to deal from my infield or SP depth.

  Corn Cobb TV on April 25, 2011 9:34 AM

• I'm fine with that. On a side note I am also building for the future, so if anyone wants some of my current payers or cap room for prospects please let me know and we will work out a trade.

  Friends O'Clyde on April 21, 2011 12:21 AM

• Fine with me.

  ARGYLE SOX on April 20, 2011 10:02 AM

• Hi folks, just thought I'd say hi. Looking forward to trying out the ottoneu format.

  Butch Bando on April 19, 2011 10:18 PM

• Sounds great - sign him up

  Balls In Play on April 19, 2011 10:52 AM

• Fellow owners, I've found a guy that wants to take over one of our dead beat teams (Orange Asian Tigers and Bob Loblaw). Does anyone oppose adding him to the league? Of course, he understands that this year is sunk and will be building for the future.

  Zeezils on April 19, 2011 10:01 AM

• Yeah, but that may not happen until the end of the season. If so, the standings won't be accurate until then, which would be extremely annoying.

• It looks like their is. The constitution says if a team does not have 1250 innings pitched they will receive 1 point per category.

  Friends O'Clyde on April 2, 2011 12:16 PM

• The people that run the site need to make it to the deadbeats don't get any points for having a 0.0 ERA, WHIP, and HR/9.

  Zeezils on April 2, 2011 9:15 AM

• Let the games begin. Sucks. We'll deal with it at season end.

  ARGYLE SOX on April 1, 2011 9:20 PM

• Well anyway, LET THE GAMES BEGIN!

  Zeezils on March 31, 2011 10:29 AM

• I'm not suggesting getting someone to take over the team for just this year. I'm thinking of a permanent replacement. I guess we should just go with what we've got now.

  Zeezils on March 31, 2011 10:14 AM

• now. everyone has to re-up for this year theyre saying no way to get someone to just "take over the teams" for this year

  Big Papi memories on March 30, 2011 6:42 PM

• They won't add anyone to the league now or ever? If the answer is ever, that's just ridiculous. This site won't survive if they don't have a way to deal with turnover.

  Zeezils on March 30, 2011 6:20 PM

• unless they can let us do an expansion draft or something next year, but theres not enough talent left to entice anyone, i wouldnt think

  Big Papi memories on March 30, 2011 3:38 PM

• the issue is this kills the dynasty aspect of the league, no one is going to want to take over crappy teams with no players moving forward either. and thus it renders all our picks of the future pointless

  Big Papi memories on March 30, 2011 3:37 PM

• they wont add anyone to our league without deleting it all together. it will let us start the league even if they arent full though, they just wont accumulate stats

  Big Papi memories on March 30, 2011 3:36 PM

• And Orange Asian Tigers has a decent half-roster, someone may be want to take over his team, especially if the entry fee is refunded. I say we try to have ottoneu get us at least one more owner to take over that team.

  Zeezils on March 30, 2011 9:06 AM

• I think just two (Bob Loblaw and Orange Asian Tigers). I'm not sure what RichmondRabbi's deal is though, he doesn't have a full roster.

  Zeezils on March 30, 2011 9:04 AM

• How many true deadbeat teams do we actually have? Seems like only two or three. Tomorrow is also a really bad day for me anyways.

  Long Gone on March 29, 2011 7:58 PM

  Long Gone on March 29, 2011 7:42 PM

• Oh, and offer them full refunds too.

  Zeezils on March 29, 2011 5:14 PM

• I would actually like to join that league, but I can't afford the time needed to do another auction. How about if they join our league, we release all the players on our deadbeat teams, and only the new teams can bid on those players?

  Zeezils on March 29, 2011 5:13 PM

• from the moderator "There is another 4x4 league that needs 6 owners - I can disband your league, refund everyone in it, and those of you that are active can try to join the Whiskey and Women league, if the draft time (tomorrow, I believe) works for you."

• I contacted ottoneu help, they may have an option for us:

  Big Papi memories on March 29, 2011 2:37 PM

• stupid coin flip costing me the one (adequate) player from my alma mater...

  Corn Cobb TV on March 28, 2011 4:10 PM

• PLus their prices increase every year, so not every good player will be kept

  Friends O'Clyde on March 28, 2011 1:06 PM

• It doesn't let me cancel an auction

  ARGYLE SOX on March 28, 2011 11:59 AM

• Look at the empty teams if they take it now it will be way worse than taking it later.

  ARGYLE SOX on March 28, 2011 11:58 AM

• Remember though Zeezil and Bravos that next year there will be a lot of players in the draft because we each get to vote a player on each to team to let lose, so I'm sure that Albert or Hanley will be free agents next year.

  ARGYLE SOX on March 28, 2011 11:57 AM

• Whatever we do, it needs to be done soon. Opening Day in ~75 hours!

  Zeezils on March 28, 2011 9:48 AM

• I agree that it would make more sense to try and find replacements now. Though I don't think anyone will want to claim the entirely empty roster at this point, unless we could rig up some sort of supplementary draft

  Long Gone on March 27, 2011 10:55 PM

• Also Losers, going back to the issue of deadbeat teams. If we release all the players on those teams, it'll be hard to get owners for next year too since the rosters will still suck. That doesn't really solve anything.

  Zeezils on March 27, 2011 3:30 PM

• Losers, can you cancel an auction? I was going through the steps to tell Seattle how to nominate a player and accidentally nominated Andres Torres. I don't want to be on the hook for $1.

  Zeezils on March 27, 2011 3:28 PM

• To begin an auction for a player, click the Free Agents link to the right of where it says Fantasy Player Search. Then, find the player you want to nominate and click the Free Agent link next to his name. There you can start the auction.

  Zeezils on March 27, 2011 3:24 PM

• I can't figure how to fill out my roster, how do I start auctions on players in order to do so?

  Clase Closed on March 27, 2011 2:41 PM

• Good idea Zeezil, but I'm worried that no one would want to take over and we'll face the same problem we have now, where they just won't care enough. I would definitely consider it more next season, but I think we're stuck. What do you think?

  ARGYLE SOX on March 26, 2011 11:30 AM

• Rather than having the league release the players on the deadbeat teams, why don't we see if Ottoneu can get us some new managers to take over the teams? They should waive the admission fee for the new owners too to get some to join.

  Zeezils on March 25, 2011 10:58 PM

• Regarding the C question, I think it's to cut down on having to check whether your catcher is in the lineup every single day. Between the 2 slots, you should be able to fill up the 162 games pretty easily.

  Zeezils on March 25, 2011 10:56 PM

• Losers's trading block has been updated!

  ARGYLE SOX on March 25, 2011 10:49 PM

• Maybe because C never get 162 games in. You might want to ask Help@Ottoneu.com though.
