Also, maybe Laurence wants to give his phone number so any owner who has an issue during the draft can text Laurence quickly so no one gets disadvantaged. That being said, the biggest time suck in a draft is when a team doesn’t quickly nominate. If everyone tries hard to be ready, everyone benefits. Thanks.

Hey, re the auction, there was talk on slack about the failure to nominate in the ottoneu channel – look at 2/21 around 10:00 p.m. For the commish, there is a “manage locked out users” link at bottom of draft page that apparently opens another window where Laurence can uncheck the “done with draft” box. Unless someone is abusing the process, I think Laurence should definitely pause the draft and quickly uncheck if someone is locked out.

Oops definitely didn't mean to include Easter Sunday, so that option would be out for me. It looks like the 23 and 25 are the most popular. Is the 8:30 starting time good or is 8 or 8:15 better?
-
Florida here. Prefer 23rd and 25th but I can do either. On 23rd would prefer to stop around 11 et if possible.

Could everybody let me know where they are located so I can come up with draft dates agreeable to all.

We NEED a draft date, actually DATES!

We had 7 abandoned teams and a big point discrepancy in the standings. So we decided to do a complete re-draft in order to attract owners to claim the abandoned teams.

Is this not a dynasty? Do we have to cut all of our players?

Guys, I am in the of moving. I'll come up with some dates that we can do a draft in a couple days.

Weeknights are good but not until after 8 est. time. The later in March the better.

Can't do March 12th. Pretty open any other time but weekdays after 6pm. Why don't you go ahead and start with some dates to pick from and see what works. I recommend setting a draft date and then sweat the payment before we actually draft. Maybe pick two weeknights in the evening.

DRAFT: Weeknights are generally best for me, anytime. Sundays probably good, as well, though tougher as we get closer to Opening Day. Sat, Mar. 12 is the only day I am OUT for sure. The sooner, the better! Let's go, boys!!!
-
I'm also available weeknights after 6. If it's a weekend thing, I can do March 11-13, or March 25-26.
-
I am available any Sunday from March 6- April 3. I can also do weeknights after 6p et, however I am busy March 14th-18th

Agreed let's LET'S THIS PARTY STARTED. Would like to schedule the draft but their are still some owners who need to pay for their teams. I will send an email to them and keep the league informed. In the meantime, can everybody give me some dates and times for possible drafting. Two days sounds good to me, possibly 3. Let me know what you think.
-
Aye!
-
Final Vote in favor of allocation!
-
Agreed, F*n Cat. Let's get this party started!!!
-
Do we have a final decision on Allocation/Vote Off? We should also start planning the auction soon.

I can't take all the credit as this is my first time as commissioner. I have received some excellent advice from Prospects.
-
Thanks. I am really looking forward to the draft and the start of the season. I think we have some great owners by the sound of the comments.
-
I'm gonna vote for vote-off. Although, I am cool with either way. Welcome new owners. Glad to have you. And I agree this looks like it's gonna be a really good league with strong owners. When I signed up, it was dying. Now it's gonna turn into a strong league. Aces has done a fine job rebuilding this one.

By my count, so far there are 6 votes for arbitration and 2 votes for vote off. There are still 4 owners who have not voted.

Hello, everybody! New to Ottoneu, but have heard great things and look forward to helping get this revamped league up off the mat and running strong. I hope we can keep a good, solid group together for the long haul. I have been trying to read up a bit on arbitration vs. vote-off and there appear to be pros & cons for both expressed by experienced competitors. That said, allocation seems like a unique & interesting exercise worth giving a try. Sooo...
My vote is for allocation arbitratio
-
That is my understanding as well. Just assumed it would be easier to get everyone together for one Sunday then two nights.

Most "NEW" drafts are done in two days--otherwise it is a very LOOOONG undertaking!

That being said, I think with this being a "new" auction, we should go for a Sunday afternoon draft date. Otherwise we may have to split the draft into two nights.

welcome Country Dogs. I think this has the makings of a great group!

Hoping for allocation. Agree it makes for more interesting strategy. Thanks.

I also agree with Aces that we should wait until everyone has renewed to schedule the draft.

Good to have a full league! I do favor allocation, I think it adds to the strategy. I'm ok either way though.

Hey all, just grabbed the available team....seems like a great group....hope it works in long term

Just to let everyone know, Catalina sent me an email and he is for arbitration.

Another issue we have is when to schedule the draft. We can only hold a draft after all teams have been paid for. No exceptions.
For those teams who still need to pay for the team, please take of this so we can move forward. Thanks Aces
-
We are still looking for one more team to join. In the meantime, I would like to take a vote on what people prefer, either the arbitration process or the vote off. Please respond by sending a message. I'd like to conclude the voting by next Wednesday, Feb 17 at noon, PST. Thanks
