I thought he said he was gonna pause. If someone keeps repeating, then he would consider removal. We should know early in the draft who is having issues or not. From what I remember, Torpedoes handled it like a champ last year. Ottoneu does need to take some of that price increase and improve the draft room, no doubt.

I agree with all of it except kicking people out of the draft. That draft room sucks. You stated it yourself. A lot of moving pieces too. For whatever reason people miss their turn. It happens. Pause and make everyone nominate. My 2 cents.

Just for the record, both of these policies have been and will continue to be the case in $100 Old School Hardball. No "passing" on nominations is permitted in the auction draft. If it gets down to within a couple seconds, Commish will pause, and then reset the nomination clock. Repeated violations will be subject to removal from the auction. Please be prepared. Every team is entitled to nominate and bid on players for as long as they have money and roster spots available.
-
I also think we should clarify draft doesn't end until all teams have left the draft room. There can be a strategy to be the last one drafting at the end all alone. In the past, there was a situation where an owner had many spots to fill and a different Commish ended the draft saying owner would have to auction through transactions. That owner should be allowed to complete roster at draft. Ottoneu actually states: e. Each owner can leave the auction at any time. Once all 12 owners have left.

I prefer we set some clarification regarding missed nominations before draft. I think we should pause draft and require all owners must nominate a player. Or everyone gets one miss, then done if miss again. Something set beforehand. Seems like every year, in at least one of my leagues, someone conveniently starts having computer issues right before their bid comes up. I do recognize that Ottoneu draft room kinda sucks. Maybe with the price increase, it will be improved. We can hope.

DRAFT DATE -- Let's go ahead and lock in Sunday, March 10 for the Auction Draft. We will begin as early as possible to accommodate Killer Bee's. I still need to work through some logistics, but please plan for mid-afternoonish.
-
Sorry meant to say good to draft any day but 3/23 & 3/24. Same goes for trading though!

Updating my draft dates: I cannot do 2/26, 3/2, 3/13, 4/7. I am in other leagues, so I will keep you posted when they get a date set. As of now, all other dates are good for me.

Chicks said he's out. I have abandoned the team. The new owner will be able to make cuts when he takes the team over.

It looks like Chicks signed in a couple of days ago, but before that he hadn't signed in since October.

Any of the dates you mentioned works for me at this time. I am in others leagues, and they haven’t set yet, so my dates could change. As of now, all good.

I can do either 3/10 or 3/17, preferably in the evening. I'd also prefer those dates to February. Thanks.

any of those weekends work for me

74 hours until the keeper deadline... Back to picking a draft date, with Killer Bee's being overseas, we are left with not much to choose from. Weeknights are impossible for him, and weekends are tough for me, but I can arrange for a Sat or Sun to make this work. Does anyone have thoughts on Sun 3/17 or Sun 3/10? I do have all weekend of Feb 9-10 available, though I realize that's coming very fast. On the plus side, that gives us all spring to be fine-tuning rosters, making trades, etc.

I'm good with the weeknight dates you posted. As of now, the only date I cannot make is April 7th. I'm in a few more leagues and those dates have not been set. So I could add a few more days depending when we set date.

That is certainly going to make it a challenge, as I generally travel on weekends. Friday evenings are definitely OUT for me, so let's start looking at Sat-Sun dates...
-
Weeknights don't work for me since whatever time you set will be in the middle of the night. I'm in Germany, so I have a 6 hour time gap between the East coast. My preference would be a Friday or Saturday...I can make whatever time you set work on those days. Or even on a Sunday if you set the draft at 4PM ET or before.
-
Just a friendly reminder that the keeper deadline is two weeks from today, so don't forget to pare your roster down to the point you want it for the draft. We should also start looking at optimal dates for the auction draft. The Mariners & A's kick off the season early with a pair of games in Japan Mar. 20-21, so we need to look before that time. Last year we did it on a weeknight and that seemed to work out well. Please look at Mar. 4-7 & Mar. 11-14 and let me know any bad days
