Draft Day!
-
Pretty sure I didn't qualify for this season OPL. Looks cool though, definitely next season. Thanks for the heads up on the draft. I forgot that was right around the corner..
-
Nah, not me. Just hoping my team doesn't finish 13th this year! See you folks in just over 48 hours for the draft!
-
Just entered my team in OPL for the first time! Anyone else doing it this year?
-
But they often put Couch Managers links (ongoing slow auction) to follow on Slack. There's one up there now that's almost finished if you're curious
-
Aha! Now we know one tenet of 'the Spud Way'! šø
But yeah, you make a decent case... tbh I usually use it in the free leagues -- but I still find I like my teams better afterwards than live drafts š¤·āāļø

Works for me. Thanks

Law Dog you hit on why I don't like slow drafts for existing leagues. Also, bidding is impacted because you are bidding on multiple players simultaneously and might not actually win those player auctions.
For us to do a slow draft I think everyone has to be onboard and that is just not the case. If it's something we want to do in the future we can discuss it more next off-season.
It looks like 3/6 is the best date, is everyone good with that date and a start time after
-
Worried the slow draft would turn in to constant watching or miss out. Has any one done one in ottoneu with bidding? What was the experience?

The 6th works for me. Also Not Against a slow draft.

Against

Looks like March 6th is the best date.
Rusty (King MeKong) suggested doing a slow draft. A slow draft works by each team nominating a couple of players and bidding on them all at the same time. There would be a different auction clock for each player that would reset when there is a new highest bidder.
If you would like or are against a slow draft, lmk!

Hey, sorry I never saw the doodle poll...I can't do the 29th or 3rd. Will be on vacation. Can do the 6th or 8th though.

I'm fine with all. If we do the 6th, I can start at any time from 8 p.m. ET on.

March 8 would not work for me

Hi all, George is taking over the Band of Brothers roster. The league is full, so let's go ahead and schedule our draft night. Based on the doodle survey, the 2nd does not work for everyone. The options that work for everyone are February 29th, March 3rd, March 6th, and March 8th. If one of those dates doesn't work for you, lmk.
-
Enjoy the break from Ottoneu!
-
I changed the draft date to 3/2. We can change it once we get closer to March, especially with the league missing a manager.
-
Also, we still have one opening (Band of Brothers), if you know anyone who would be interested in league, lmk!
-
Hi everyone! Below is the doodle poll to figure out our draft night:
https://doodle.com/meeting/participate/id/aA89l2le
We can iron out the draft time once we find a date that works for everyone. Also, please don't forget to make your cuts and renew your roster before the keeper deadline.
-
What's up y'all.. glad to have joined this league. Looks right up my alley. Once I get settled in I'll be making cuts to get the payroll squared away so feel free to shoot me some offers. I'm not shy to trade away big contracts right now if it makes sense for both parties. Looking forward to a fun season. Cheers

Sorry for your loss! Appreciate the heads up and I vote for team name change to Wil - lie Maaaayyyssss
-
My condolences George. I lost my mom 24 years ago and I still think of her regularly. My mom was a big Milwaukee Braves fan. Took us to Milwaukee where I saw Warren Spahn pick Willy Mays off second base. I hope you always remember her. Take care.

Sorry for your loss. Take care.

Dear league mates -- I'm staying in the league, but have ignored a couple of you recently because my mother passed away last weekend. The funeral is next week, and I expect to be back in the swing of things during the week of the 18th.
Stupid baseball fact: she & Willie Mays shared a birthday and I annoyed her as a little brat (sometimes as an adult) by making the third line of the song, "Happy Birthday, Wil - lie Maaaayyyssss".
Looking forward to anot

Gregg has decided to step away from Ottoneu, big loss for us because of how competitive he was and he was also one of the original managers of the league.
I will look for a replacement manager, if anyone knows someone who would be interested in The Quadfathers roster, lmk.
Also, if you think you will not be returning next year, lmk!
Lastly, don't forget to arb!

Congratulations to The Spuds. Really dominant year. Well done.
-
Thanks Rusty! Also congrats to Law Dog and Genitals on 2nd/3rd!
Fun season everyone, I'm looking forward to the off-season!
-
Oh by the way-- props to Jacob for officially wrapping up what became almost a lock in June! Never seen a more dominant year in an Otto league. Well-done Commish
-
Thanks everyone! Happy to be here and look forward to the second half of the season
-
Welcome to the league!
-
Thanks for stepping in midyear, Robert. I know that's never fun so I appreciate it. George
-
Welcome Robert.
-
Hi all! Empty flight has decided to step away from the league, just one too many leagues this year. Robert (simplastik) has taken over the roster Chocobos & Moogles. Let's welcome Robert to the league! Also, enjoy the all-star break/enjoy not worrying about lineups for the next few days!

Oh Joe Ryan, your first impression on the job has not been impressive.

Welcome Tim. Good luck.

Welcome Tim!

Adam (Pitches Be Crazy) is taking a break from Ottoneu and thought it'd be best that the new manager of the team was able to start the rebuild before the off-season. Tim (Blue Crew) has been added to the team, let's welcome Tim to the league!

drunk ottoneu is some of my favorite ottoneu haha
