I will be staying. Thanks Squirrels and Winnetka.
-
Ok, I have added you both as commishes. Thanks for taking over, best of luck
-
I can co-commish with Winnetka. We will need to quickly do a roll call of who is staying so we can get new owners and get the league up and running smoothly again.
-
I'll co-commish if someone is interested in handling all the emails and stuff. I hate emails, I check my inbox on average once every two weeks.
-
I’m going to bow out of the league, joined with the expectation pf the franchise tags and pay tier increase. Wasn’t really looking for another $20 standard league. Thanks all
-
Most people in this league are not on Slack. I am going to re-emphasize my previous message, which goes as follows: "Hi folks, judging by the vote, it appears we have far less than a quorum on this issue. Five owners didn't vote, that concerns me the most. I won't pursue any changes but I'm also no longer interested in running the league and being in the league. Someone please step up and run the league by the end of the week."
-
Hello...so I didn't get a chance to chime in over Thanksgiving. I also get a lot of Ottoneu emails and didn't see the original. Does anyone use the bestcoastleague slack channel? I'm wondering if we could post a couple of polls there to vote and have more visibility into the issues.
Also, I think it would be easier to chat about them there.
Overall, gut feeling is that I don't feel strongly about anything and being new would be willing to go with the majority.

I am also against both
-
I understand the intent of the rule change and was actually once in a leagu that used such a system but didn’t see it achieve any great success in improving parity or maintaining competitiveness during the season so I would vote against the change. But I am more strongly opposed to changing to a prize league. Putting it off for a year doesn’t make it fair. If you want a prize league start one from scratch so everyone has equal chance. If I had wanted to be in a prize league I would’ve join
-
It's great for owner's that don't want to play with a fair set of rules.

Alright, folks. The rules that I sent out can be considered a proposal. This a request for a vote. Please vote "For" or "Against" on this league message board by EOD Sunday, December 1st. A majority vote will rule, the commish's vote breaks a tie.
-
I just resent it. There's a character limit on the board which is why I messaged via e-mail. As far as voting goes, we will vote on the payout change when that occurs. Everything else will be implemented without a vote.
-
I get about 200 Ottoneu emails a day, including some from you. But I did not get that message. Why don't you just post these changes here that you would LIKE to make so we can vote on them.

Alright, folks. Here's the deal: I sent an e-mail on November 16th with some details things I am implementing after the 2020 season and beyond. If you did get it, great. If you did not, please check your e-mail just to be sure. If you did not get it (and are not getting regular prompts on trades, transactions and league messages), change your e-mail in your Ottoneu account so that you get these e-mails. Thanks!
-
I sent a PM
-
I didn't get it. And what do you mean new facets?

Ok, I hadn't looked back far enough, got it, and I like all 3. The Franchise System is new to me, I think it looks good.
-
I didn't find one.
-
I sent an e-mail through the "E-mail the league" feature regarding new facets to the league that will take place after next season. Did anyone not get it?
-
Hey guys, thanks for having me! My trade block is updated and looking to make a few deals
-
Hi all, I would like to introduce Matt, the new owner of Lux Capacitor! He lives in Brooklyn and is a Phillies fan. Trading season is now open. I am finalizing some additions to the league and will send the messaging out for these items soon. Good luck and thanks for the full participation in arbitration!
-
Everyone, please welcome Jon, the owner of ??? (formerly Deuce's Wild)! He lives in Denver and is a Cubs fan.
-
Chad of Deuces Wild decided he wanted out of Ottoneu, so the team is open. I have someone inline but I would take recs if he doesn't pan out.
-
Hey everyone, hope nobody minds this quick plug...I'm a Commish of another league finishing up it's first year and I need a new owner. Anyone here interested in taking on a second (or third) team? I've been careful in league selection when joining new leagues, we have a fun group and a couple of west coast guys already in the league! :) If interested send me a message! Link to team: https://ottoneu.fangraphs.com/1013/team?team=7215
-
It would’nt be a message from your commission without a gaffe. I meant arbitration, not arbitrage
-
I declare this frickin arbitrage convention open! One month to spend $25, it’s like going back in time It seems as if we have a full ship for the moment. I’d like to thank you all for being a good group of owners. I’m working on some ideas to keep this league as interesting and competitive as it can be. I’ll let you know the details as soon as I have them ironed out. In the meantime, enjoy the playoffs and making good players more expensive to own. Choose wisely.
-
Thanks for the welcome, I'm excited to join another established league. I am excited about the roster start I get here as well, unlike the rebuild required with the last team I took over! I look forward to the fun season ahead!
-
Welcome. . .your new team is almost going to be able to set on cruise control next year. I just noticed tho that almost every team made the 15,500 pt threshold. There is a Great Chemistry badge available if the whole league is reaches it. https://community.ottoneu.com/badges Great season all.
-
Everyone, please welcome Harold, the new owner of TBD. He's a Reds fan in Cincinnati and he's fresh off winning two leagues this year. It's going to be tough competition for all of us.
-
We have another owner joining shortly
-
From TBS: Josh, I am going in a different direction, so I won't be playing with you and your guys next season. You should be able to find someone to take over TBD. Thanks for a fun year. You have a good league, and you are a good Commish. Good luck to you.
From TBD on October 4, 2019 6:18 AM

Hi folks, we're six days away from arbitration. If you are not staying in the league, please let me know via PM or the message board. If you are, no need to message.
-
From what I have seen, there were a lot of after-the-fact adjustments in points and stats that happened a couple days after the season ended. I think this is a product of the third-party stats source that was making the changes. Another league that I am in was affected by this - some races were down to 3 points difference after the changes where they were not as close before. In this case, it didn't affect the outcome but I would definitely be asking for more clarity if the races were closer.
-
I was thinking the same thing as well regarding the 1499 innings. I guess I should read the rules and pay more attention to them. It took me two years to understand that you can actually go over 1500 innings.
-
I wondered about that, too. At one point, the system had you starting the day with 1499.1 IP and I though maybe the system considered anything more than 1499 to be 1500, so it shut you down. But I don't know. The system sometimes does weird stuff. It has ADDED 2 points to my final score since Sunday. I hope you get your points back.
-
Not that it matters much, but I didn’t get any points from my pitching on the last day. I can’t figure out why, If anyone knows or can figure it out, I wouldn’t mind knowing.
-
Congrats on 1st, TBD! Now it's time for playoff baseball
-
Congrats to TBD on the Victory! A great race thru the last few weeks.
-
Way to go, Bill (TBA)!

Congrats to TBD on a strong season and a strong finish! Even after losing Yelich and Marte, you just kept rolling. It was an impressive job streaming pitching from the waiver wire. Most everyone else finished strong as well; thanks to all on making it a competitive league! Enjoy the playoffs and get ready to arb in a couple of weeks.
-
Thanks. A fun season. Props to Winnetka for an awesome late-season run.
