I just received a couple messages saying they can make Saturday at 3 work. I'm scheduling it. Hopefully everyone else is still on board!
-
So, the 1st isn't coming together. I'll work on making another day happen over the weekend. Just for the record, if there isn't a unanimous day, the tiebreaker will be who's signing up for the most days. If there are days you could make that you haven't signed up for, please go edit the calendar.
-
Yeah noms are vital and viral. In practice, yeah you are allowed to miss a few, but if it is a pattern...I'll stare with evil eyes and make a stupid remark about your team!
-
There is the expectation that you nominate on your turn. There's a commissioner option to turn on that if you miss your nomination, you're locked out of the draft. In my opinion, for this league, that's too punitive. Phones ring, babies cry, significant others distract, bathroom runs are necessary, minds wander. However, in the mid- too late-auction, where skipping noms can be valuable (But low rent, in my opinion) gamesmanship, there will be less leeway.
-
Depending on how deep cuts are, and people's bidding habits, I'd say 3ish hours.
-
How long does a draft normally take?
-
I cannot do the 8th or 9th due to work, will be in meetings all weekend.
-
Last year we did Feb 24th at 14:00 PM EST.
-
I remember 3pm on a weekend was settled on last season because we have multiple disparate home time zones. Could some of the older owners chime in to verify my memory?
-
only date in Feb that I can't make is the 8th

Sorry didn't fully read your message looking for late...so guess morning idea won't work
-
I'm probably going to be having a new kid here in next 10 days or so, so selfishly this weekend would be best if we can make it work to get it out of way for me. How about early in the day. Coffee and ottoneu drafr
-
What time are you thinking? I have to leave for work at 5pm central / 6pm eastern. Any way to do the 23rd date which got the 2nd most votes if it's okay for everyone.
-
If we were to have the auction later on February 1st (this Saturday) would everybody be able to make a later time? If someone couldn't do a later time, let me know, and we'll work on a different date.
-
So, there is no unanimous vote. Also, we had two non votes. The 2/1 had 8 votes and 2/23 had 7 votes. Would any of the owners that voted no on those dates be able to make it if we moved the time an hour or two in either direction?
-
How are we doing on the auction date/time? Would be great to know this soon, since I have to fill out doodles for other leagues too.
-
I want to announce this, in case it affects done of your end of rosters keep/cut decisions. At the auction, we won't have a set limit on rounds or anything like that. We'll keep going until everyone is finished.
-
I know I have some messages/trade offers sitting there, and I apologize for not getting to those. As a player, I'll get back soon.
As a commish, I'd like to thank everyone who voted, and would ask everyone else to try to get to it this week.
-
Filled out the poll.
-
Completed my poll dates
-
Everyone, please go to the poll and vote for every day you could attend. Ideally, we'll find a date that all of us can attend.

Congrats man! No problem at all.
-
Hey, all. I know I promised a survey over the weekend. My newborn baby daughter had other ideas. I will get it up by next week!
-
What is LeagueSafe? I've heard about the 5MilB system on top of Ottoneu - time consuming?
-
Let me know if you have any questions or interest in joining. Thanks.

Hello all. I'm commissioner in league 606 & we are recruiting a new owner. It is a $20 Ottoneu Fangraph pts league with an additional $100 buy-in to LeagueSafe. Entering its 6th yr. Also has 5MiLB prospect roster system. 3 owners left at the end of last season so we are going to have a snake dispersal draft to re-allocate their teams. Two spots are filled already. Link to the league: https://ottoneu.fangraphs.com/606/home. Available rosters: Saratoga Grays, Urban Achievers, Knoblankiel Y

Good to go! Trade block is updated and open to all proposals.
-
Hi All -- just claimed this team, waiting on confirmation from commish that no one else laid claim. If good to go I'll update the trade block and get going quickly. Feel free to shoot over ideas for trades in proposals or notes if you see potential for a deal.
-
Shouldn’t take long to fill his team. He has a pretty solid roster and is below the cap.
-
Captain Bob will be leaving us. It sounds like he has a lot of exciting stuff going on, and needs to cut back on ottoneu. Best of luck to him, so we'll need to find one more owner.
-
It's time to start thinking about the auction! Looking over the comments last season, we agreed on a 3pm est start time on a weekend day in February. If 3pm on a weekend is absolutely not doable for somebody, speak up, we'll look for a different time. I'll be putting up a poll over the weekend to vote on the day.
-
Could definitely use some OF or SP. Madrigal and Beer very available in any deal.

Hello hello, welcome to the best armchair experience of being a GM.
-
Welcome to all the new owners! Feel free to ask any questions. Not knowing your experience levels with ottoneu, I like to point everyone to the surplus calculator in the community forums. While it shouldn't be taken as a bible, it's a great resource for getting a feel for player values.
-
I sent the commissioner a message. I will be willing to take over La Duda but don't just want to jump in if you have others waiting.
-
Any idea what we are doing about the multiple open teams?

Greetings everyone. I know it is the holidays. I'm part of another league "Just a Bit Outside" aka JaBO: there are two open spots: Fangraph points, and we are into year EIGHT!
-
Welcome to the league lights!
-
I may have 1 guy taking over one of our 2 orphan teams...fingers crossed
-
Wasn't directly involved, either way thanks Commish. Appreciate we have a commissioner on top of things.
-
FYI to the league: Cuba messaged me to let me know that the trade that was accepted was offered in error and Beck graciously agreed to cancelling it. After speaking to both parties, I cancelled the trade with the commissioner tool.
-
We have two open spots. I didn't see the advantage of booting him before they were filled.
-
That’s a good question. If we do have a spot we should probably get working on filling it. Not sure if he’s playing or not
-
Hey have we heard from La Duda? He didn't arb and hasn't checked in since early October...there's a ton of abandoned teams out there so if we're gonna be looking for a new owner, we should probably address it sooner rather than later. If he's in, then no worries, my bad.
-
Almost trade season...tick tock tick tock tick tock.
-
Need to abandon team. Apologize for quick exit.
-
Looking forward to upcoming season. Took over The Musial Suspects
-
Welcome new owners!
