So are we still allowed to (oops, I forgot "we" is a trigger word for NYS, let me re-phrase.) Are the teams in this league ("we") still allowed to bid whatever teams ("we") want on players, or will NYS set the maximum price? Maybe NYS has a point that this league ('we") shouldn't follow the Ottoneu rules like every other league? So NYS, what are the rules the league ("we") should follow?
-
I was going to post nearly exactly what Can O' Corn posted. I don't really understand the problem.
-
NYS, I'm a little confused as to what the problem is here (and yes, I tried to read back and to the beginning of the year but you deleted your message. And also your argument last night was semi-incoherent). Who has AKA overspent on? And what problem does that represent if he's in the bottom third of the standings? Isn't that how all of this works - you develop a strategy and see how it pans out?
-
I haven't seen Commissioners say anything? Did I miss it!? Who are AKA's players that are way over inflated? There is inflation because of bargain keepers not bid up in auction or prospects made good, like Elly this year (should I be mad at Rainmakers for having him cheap??) We also have cheap players and extra money because we have 3 teams who spend less than $300 (one under $200) on their roster; that includes you. If you bid up players, you make AKA spend his money. I'm confused on problem.

Hilarious I purposely left Domingo on the bench because he has been terrible.

That is an amazing number of teams. I have more teams now across all formats than I have ever had including NFBC (not the big the cash prize leagues by they way) which I am trying for the first time. I am in over my head with only SIX teams. Good luck and glad to have you in the league Big Papi!
-
Yep I was in top 16 in OPL last year. Things went a little out of control this year with me acquiring all those teams, hope I can keep up, GL to all this season. Just watched Shohei pitch to As's, fun to watch baseball
-
Glad to have you, Papi. I knew you're real because I'm in OPL and I've seen your name many times.
-
Hey no bot here. Calling me a weirdo?? That's a freebee. Check again, it's more like 125 leagues, took me almost 5 hours to do lineups today, so I'm not a bot for sure . I'm a retired senior (OK old) baseball fan, been with Ottoneu for 4-5 years now, sucker for CLAIM page when players I like are on roster. Ottoneu is my only hobby besides TV, so let me have fun and please not too much compliments my way. I don't think Niv sees me as a weirdo at all.
-
I'm fairly certain Papi is real. What say you, Papi?
-
Have a great season! Good luck this year and enjoy the show!
-
Yes, sir! Happy Opening Day!
-
Let's play Ball !
-
Auction starts in approximately 15 minutes.
-
Or I guess not Wahoo anymore now Team Name Undefined.
-
Hi Wahoo! Did you have any luck finding a proxy?
-
You can also do the same thing on the Ottoneu Forum. Just Google "Ottoneu Forum" and look for the "Managers Wanted" topic.
-
If you have an Ottoneu Slack account, you can go into the "Managers-Wanted" channel and indicate you need a proxy for tomorrow's auction.
-
Looks like I will need a proxy - tried to recruit a buddy but he isn't free either. I wasn't aware proxies were available, can one of you point me in the right direction? I appreciate the help!
-
I can do Friday. (Still miss our usual Sunday auction)
-
Is there anyone else who may not be able to make the auction on Friday?
-
Wahoo - Please let us know if you need a proxy. We can help you find one.
-
Wahoo, would you like some help finding a proxy to participate in the auction for you?

Don't think I'll be able to make Friday night as stated in the poll. Bummer considering the state of my team!
-
Hello! This is just a quick reminder that our auction is this Friday evening at 8:30 pm EDT. Looking forward to a great season!
-
Sounds good 24th of March works for me. Hope it works for everyone. Thanks for scheduling

Thanks everyone! We are closing in on a date -- March 22, 24, or 25. I am going to schedule us for the 24th at 8:30 pm ET as a placeholder. Meanwhile, pitchers and catchers are reporting this week and spring training games are on the horizon!
-
Sorry gang for the no responses, I have been on a cruise in the Caribbean but am back. March 22, 24, and 25 all work for me, I am a no go on March 10th. Thanks.

My schedule is still the same: out 13-18 March and all Tuesday evenings. I can do those 4 days. Sorry that the Sunday evenings that worked so well for so long are no longer possible.

Trip, I didn't vote in the poll, but I can make any of those dates work.
-
I can schedule around the day that doesn't work for me to grease the wheels on that.
-
I just looked at the poll. 8 people have completed the poll. There are no days that work for all of us. So, we will have to do the best we can. The best four days are Friday March 10, Wednesday March 22, Friday March 24, and Saturday March 25 where 7 of 8 can attend.
-
I'm pretty flexible on draft dates. Sunday nights work best for me, too.
-
Great to have you on board, owner of the team soon to be formerly known as the Spider Tack Spinners!
-
Excellent!
-
Consider it filled!
-
Welcome New Spider Tack! Now that the league is full again we can get back to setting a date for the auction. Wahoo! set up a poll (THANK YOU!) to help us figure it out. Please complete the poll when you get a chance.
-
hey hey we're full again! welcome
-
Thanks for joining! Happy to have you

Hello everyone. Taking over Spider Tack. Will make any additional cuts / change name shortly. Excited to be joining the league.
-
Would recommend using your team name to fill out rather than real name (will be easier to track, wouldn't let me change my name after the fact).
-
Any interest in filling out this poll? Could be the easiest way to nail down times that work.

I cannot do 13-18 March, nor Tuesday evenings. I can usually make other weekday nights work if we don't start before 7:30pm CST; I have much more flexibility on weekends. I always thought Sunday evenings were ideal (certainly better for me) and worked well for us in the past.

weekdays are good for me
-
Is anyone/everyone opposed to weekdays? In previous leagues I’ve found that’s when most people are at home/available, and weekends are more hit or miss.
-
Hey, Otto Fifteen! Welcome aboard. Looking forward to competing against you in a baseball league now!
-
Any weekend other than 17-19 will work for me
-
greetz and welcome yo!
-
Great! Welcome to the league! We are happy to have you join us! As I am sure you know, you are now allowed to make one round of penalty-free cuts from the team. We ask that you make any cuts that you would like to make over the next few days. Good luck this season!
-
Hello! I just claimed the available Hit The Bricks team. March 10th or 11th work for me.
