Welcome to the league! A couple of dates to keep in mind, if you want to make any cuts (where they will not count against your salary cap), they need to be made by January 31. Draft is on Sunday, March 1, at 1:30 pm (Eastern). If you have any questions, feel free to message me or post on the board...it's a fun format, hope you enjoy it!

Awesome, I was worried about it being so close to the deadline but the quality of the league prevails! Or something like that.
-
I guess we settled the "how long will it take to fill a spot" debate pretty decisively!
-
Welcome to the league! We are happy to have you.

Welcome dude! Glad to have you. This is the best league I've ever been in, so hopefully you'll enjoy it.

GONE's trade block has been updated!

Hey guys, I just claimed "GONE". This will be my first ottoneu league, but I've been actively playing fantasy baseball since 2000. I'm excited to be in the league! Best of luck to all of you.
-
5th - just joined slack this morning. Looks pretty cool and a good way to tap into the larger Ottoneu community.
-
I just posted on the ottoneu message board about the opening.
-
I looked at Slack but didn't join...might be an interesting way to spread disinformation if you know others in your league are members.
-
Well that was an unexpected turn of events. I'll cut his team so we can get a new owner in.
-
I just joined it. It looks like an open discussion about all things Ottoneu. You have to send an email to OttoneuTrades at Gmail asking to be invited. Then you'll get an invite.
-
What is it? So obviously no, I haven't joined but thought I read a reference to it in fangraphs comment section on some article.
-
Has anyone else joined the Ottoneu slack community?
-
At least he changed his name on the way out so we know he meant it...

Having said that, as a content member, it would require multiple and monumental reasons for me personally to depart. An unhappy owner needs little reason to stay, if anything is probably looking for a reason to depart and on small terms apparently.
-
Strange, not only this is league has been in the top 10 in the past two years (year one had 3 in active owners even), this league's temperament by far does not aim in running people out. No league is perfect, but Don't Be Chi is pretty darn close and the members are a riot in terms of humor.
-
Woah, that was an unfortunate attack to read. I didn't see what warranted the "trolling" comment. I'm no softy - and enjoy heated debates about trades ect, but that seemed like a really strange way to handle a concern. It didn't seem like pasttime meant any malice toward ridickeylous or the plumbers- just maybe didn't research before he asked. This is an awesome league with knowledgable owners, but let's not run anyone out for asking too many questions. I think a reminder is a good idea too.

Agreed. In the interest of a kumbaya moment with the rest of you, I didn't mean to participate in driving anyone off, but I think Good Plumbers and Ridickeylous have been good members of the league and Danks has been a great commissioner, so I was getting a little tired of the questions. I would have felt differently if we actually had any problems with owners not paying attention, but this is one hell of a dedicated league.

Count us as supporting Danks. If he's really gone then we'll find someone to take his place.
-
Thin skin. Danks - you're my boy, blue! I love this league as much as Winterfell.

danksforallthefish, I will make life easier for you and all who aren't concerned! Please remove me ASAP! Good luck to ALL! Off to troll elsewhere!
-
And if it's not meant to be trolling, I apologize, but at least check the message/transaction board before calling people out! I think you also posted an urgent message about setting a draft date a week or two ago, and posted about a February 14 draft date...even though we had already set the March 1 draft date in early December. I know you are in a lot of leagues...let's leave the stress of crappy owners that exist in other leagues where it belongs - not here!
-
I don't think we should rip pasttime for caring. All he did was ask if the Plumbers had checked in lately? And now he's getting torn a new one. Everybody needs to chill. Seems like a simple yes or no question he was asking. I've had the grumpy champion war children (I hate to see how grumpy he gets when you doesnt win the championship)lash out at me so I know to tread lightly, but come on, it was just a simple question. I don't think he's bashing the plumbers.

Pastime just posted this same thing about Plumbers less than a week ago, and numerous people responded to point out that Plumbers had just made a trade on January 15.
-
And I kinda get it, because I know fantasy baseball lends to owners checking out relatively early sometimes, but that's not an issue with this league. Also, I note that I only overtook you for third because you quit changing your pitcher lineups at the end of the year and didn't get near your innings limit. 3rd place may not be much, but that got me my $50 back, so Pot-Kettle and so on and so forth.

Pastime, I agree with War Children. Danks has always been on top of everything in this league and we've had exactly zero problems in this league with owner participation. Plumbers is not the only team still over the salary limit and he has no real reason to drop anyone before the deadline.

I say this with Peace & Love, this is the most awesome league ever! Make no mistake, I'd like to rip all of your throats out come April, but I love you all...very much!
-
TROLLING? Children--why aren't you concerned? Some people would like non-interested owners{might make it easier to do well}. Keeper deadline is just days away--better I guess if less people know--that way it hurts their team--and could HELP other teams. Could cause some owners to drop--some people may see that as a good thing. I think we ALL should at least should be aware of dates--maybe even a reminder--JUST SAYING!
-
I assume it's trolling. Which is best left to Fangraphs comments.
-
Why are we so concerned about who's not coming back, we didn't have any problems the last 2 years. Also, its the offseason, people are going to not comment for a long periods of time.

Who the F is Loney Furbush?
-
Meant 96 K's, but more like +66Ks to Max AL strikeout output.
-
Max Scherzer in the NL league! 32 starts x 3 pitcher at bats K = +66 extra Ks.
