The league name is homage paid to our GDR league that I had been running since 2005. I don't know how generic ottoneu leagues are named, but this is a specific name to me and some of our long time league mates.
-
Might I be allowed to ask why we can not have a real league name other then the generic Public League 131?

I agree, we've chosen allocations so we will stick with that. We'll vote again on GS cap and then anything new that becomes an option for 2020.

Thanks for the efforts commish. I think the GS cap sounds like a good compromise. As for the allocation method, I'd like to propose that we plan to keep that going forward and don't revisit. It would make things too difficult to go back-and-forth on that. Looking forward to 2019!
-
All the votes are in. We are keeping allocation method, it was a clear majority (83%). The GS matchup was extremely spread out. A 75% majority voted in favour of a cap, so I factored those as voting unlimited as votes for a cap of 10. I compromised and set the cap to 9 since that was the average of the votes. We can try it for a year and then vote again in the next offseason.

Lots of trades, I like the activity. Anyway, I've removed the last inactive owner and posted his team. We should have someone soon and we can finish up the voting.
-
Wow. Quite the blockbuster deal between Shoopy and the Pope. Lots of movement this off-season

Sounds fair to me, thanks. I will email him again and let him know. If we get nothing back after December 17th I will remove him and try and fill his team.
-
the results by January 1, 2019, which would provide 30 days to make trades and do transactions before the keeper deadline.

GSB hasn't signed in since October 27, did not participate in Arbitration, did not respond about renewing and has not voted...I'd say it sounds like he's not coming back. Out of an abundance of caution, I would suggest sending him a final message that he needs to act by December 17 or the league is going to assume he is not coming back. That gives him a week to do something. If he doesn't, you can post his team. Hopefully it gets taken quickly, the new owner votes and perhaps everyone can know

Personally, I think we should set the deadline earlier for this vote as the format will dictate teams’ strategy. I guess the question I would have is how close is the vote? If 7 teams want a GS cap, then the last vote doesn’t matter and it’s really a question of how many per week.
-
We now have 11 active owners. Genoa Salami Boxers was active for the full season, but did not participate in Arbitration and was the only one to not respond to my email about renewing. I would like to keep the voting open until all 12 owners are active so what deadline do we set for the last owner to participate? I had initially thrown out Jan 15th, but wanted to see what everyone else says.

I contacted the outstanding 4 teams to complete the survey or let me know they are not returning. Cell Block C has decided not to return so his team has been made available. Its the only H2H so should be fairly quickly to fill.
-
i vote NOT to change the name. it was the name of the league in gamedayritual and it should stay.

I have been away dealing with some family stuff but there absolutely needs to be a cap. I would have preferred the IP cap that the other formats, but a GS cap is better than no cap.

Well, I appreciate the conviction of the commish, but is there any way that the rest of the league can have a say in our name? Also, if people don't vote within a week, I think we should go ahead. And, if the vote is close between no GS cap and a GS cap, I think it should be different than if it's close between two different GS caps. Basically for me it's first, do we have a cap, and then if so, what is it. And, I'd push toward a higher cap if we had one, IMO.
-
I've also thrown out the date of Jan 15th for renewal deadline, please let me know your thoughts guys.
-
The league will not be re-named. But, I've just sent out a league email trying to get a few more votes in on the changes to arbitration and the starting pitcher weekly limit.
-
Can we also vote on re-naming the league?
-
Slot 5 & cap the starts @ 7 which averages out to 1 a day each week. My vote. Thank you.

Smell My Finger, the cap would be whatever we vote to set it to. Options are 7-10.
-
We can select the number for a weekly cap on starts. In my opinion that is the biggest decision we need to make for the league as it has a pretty big impact on strategy. Admittedly, I don't have a strong opinion either way. I'd suggest we set a deadline for people to reply, and then the majority of responses ends up as the answer.
-
Also, I might be willing to trade Baez for the right SP.

What would the cap # be?

starts*

If you select no cap on starts, there will only be 2 SP slots. The only way to get 5 slots is to select a cap on stars.
-
Arb the same. Just need more activity from the owners. No cap on starts but can we get it where we can have 5 starters in the lineup instead of just the 2. It makes it a bit rough. Baseball season is very long and to need to make moves every single day can be taxing and makes some lose interest. If that is the way it must be then so be it.

Yes, you will have to cut and paste the link for it to work. So far only 2 responses. I will email the link out as well.
-
I copied the link in his message and put it in a new browser window and it worked. Basically 2 question: do you want to do arbitration the same way next year or the other format, and do you want to have a weekly cap on games started.
-
How'd you answer the survey? The link does not work?

I answered the survey. I think that they set up the renewal deadline to be before the keeper deadline but you could check. This would allow us to get new owners and allow them to make trades to shape their roster before the keeper deadline.
-
I also propose a renewal deadline of January 15th.
