Hey, y'all! Time for a new year of Ottoneu. We've got a few new owners in the league (howdy!), but we're still looking for folks to take over Chewbacca and Vottoman. Send me your leads!
Now that the holidays are over and I've got some other stuff off my plate, I'm going to try and get a bit more active on trading; I suggest y'all do the same. Best of luck to everyone!

How do we go about setting keepers? Is there going to be a selection menu that activates in January, or is it assumed that we are keeping anybody we haven’t cut by the deadline (or is there already some sort of menu I’m not seeing)?

Otherwise, happy trading! I'll start gathering thoughts for the 2019 draft once we get closer to the keeper deadline.

Hey, y'all! Offseason is officially here, so time for a few housekeeping updates. We've got our first new owner (hi, Astoria!), with hopefully at least one more coming soon. Since Vottoman and Russelin' didn't run their arbitration, I've officially set them to "abandoned" in Ottoneu, which means that they're open for the taking by the general Ottoneu public. Even aside from all those, though, we'll probably still need 1-2 new owners, so if you have any candidates send them over.

Happy November everybody! A friendly reminder that arbitration is due on the 14th. It was a pretty user-friendly system, so you could probably submit some cromulent values in about 10-15 minutes. Then we can heat up the stove!
-
Hi Ottoneu! Happy World Series day! I feel as if I've already won, because I'm watching with friends, and friendship is the greatest reward. And because I like both teams, that has more to do with it. Anyways, I was also thinking about arbitration this morning and if you are having trouble getting started, here's an article that might help you figure out your strategy: https://www.fangraphs.com/fantasy/arbitration-advice-from-the-community/

What James said -- you can change your arbitration assignments any time between now and the deadline, if you want. (I probably will.) I'm in the middle of moving, but I'll work on recruiting new owners once I'm settled in; I have at least one definite 'yes', and if we have a couple of spots left over we can fill them from the Ottoneu boards if need be. Send me anyone you have in the meantime, though!
-
Thanks to the guys that are leaving for a great season! Arbitration opened yesterday, so could y’all put down some arb values before you go? That should help the people looking to take over your teams stay competitive.
-
Sorry guys will not be returning as I just did not care for this game. Good luck to you all.
-
It is indeed in the rules! VII.d.i. Short version, though, is that you take each team and pick which players should have their salary increased the most. All players receive an additional salary increase, regardless of whether they were targeted during arbitration.
-
What does arbitration all entail...or am I just asking a question that is answered in the rules and I'm being lazy?

Looking forward to next season! Feels like I've got a good base to build on.
-
I'm good to go for next season
-
No worries, Mark! Thanks for the update, and just drop a line if you want to come back for a future season.
-
Unfortunately I won't be back either. I kind of stretched myself out pretty thin with baseball this year and I need to cut back. I will make sure to help out with anything involved with the league before my team is transferred over. It was a fun year and my team performed a lot better than I anticipated since I missed half the draft lol. Best of luck to everyone moving forward and congrats to the winners this year.

Congrats to everyone on a fun season! Looking forward to defending my title despite my best keeper being Miguel Andujar.
-
absolutely - I'll make every attempt to leave behind a decent team and will finish up whatever process is needed.

In the meantime, I think we could get new owners in immediately, though I'll probably start looking for folks in earnest during the keeper selection winter. I had 2-4 people who were considering joining this season, so I'll reach out to them, but if you have anyone else who might be a good candidate, please let me know. I've also heard that a couple of folks might want to switch to the roster of a departing team, which I don't think poses a problem, so let me know if you were interested in that.
-
Thanks, Rich. So we've got BLC and MM out, and I'm guessing TVE as well. If anyone else is definitely leaving, it'd be great if you could let me know before arbitration starts (10/15, I'm guessing), but it'd be a huge help if y'all could at least hang around to submit your arbitration picks, to keep the league on a level playing field.
-
hey guys - had a lot going on personally this year and didn't give this the attention it deserves. That said, I wont be coming back next year. Wanted to give as much notice as possible to find an owner to take over my team. Best of luck.

I don't have a strong preference, but I'd be fine with $75 if that's what we decide.
-
Sure, I'd be fine with $75.
-
Also, with the updates to the prize tiers, any interest in switching over to a $75 league next year? I'd be up for it, but I'd only do so if there was unanimous consent. (No pressure.)
-
Happy birthday to Otto Neu, born 124 years ago today! And even though I'll be finishing towards the bottom, it was a lot of fun doing this league with all of you. I'm looking forward to hopefully finishing on the other side of the table next year.

(Though why you're that keen to keep Carlos Tatis on your roster is beyond me.)
