Appreciate that..
-
For anyone that isn’t aware. There’s a thread on CM here https://community.ottoneu.com/t/couch-managers-down-3-2-2025/15240
-
No problem I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing out on the fun.
-
Yeah, still down. Once it's back up, I'll pause the draft and make the necessary fixes. I'll update everyone here once we're ready to get going again.
This sucks, I'm sorry. I think it happened last year, too. I'll talk to the guy and see what we can do to avoid it next year, or if I can't get a good explanation from him, we'll look for alternatives.
-
Is it still down? It's still not showing up for me. Now there's a privacy notice for me.
-
Just got the update. Site should be up again soon.
“Might need to put a few hours more time on the auctions that ended in the past few hours. You can do that from the Manage Auction page on your auction when it comes back online.”
The site has been down for about 4 hrs, so if it’s up again soon I’ll add 4 hrs on to auctions that completed in that window.
-
Glad it wasn’t just me. I’ve been having a hard time since we started.
-
CM has been laggy for me, and seems to be completely down for the last couple hours. Sorry guys. I just emailed the guy that runs the site and asked him to at least pause our drafts, because I can’t get in to do it. Will update you when I hear back.
-
We’re up and running. Looks good so far, but I’m at an event today with spotty service so bear with me on the troubleshooting.
-
Pretty sure noon eastern time.. today
-
When are we starting the draft?

All good. Hooray! Thanks guys, let me know if you have any questions.
-
I'm in now. Apologies for being late!
-
...well before the 18th.
-
Only one left. I messaged Summer of George again. I'll plan to push the start button around 9 AM PST tomorrow morning, regardless. I've checked through rosters and they look good to me, but let me know if you see any errors and I'll get them fixed.
Everyone will essentially need to check a minimum of once every 8 hours during wake times so you don't miss out on any players. I can always adjust the time settings if we need to speed it up, but I think we'll be fine finishing well befo
-
Thanks to all who have joined. I just emailed the 4 managers who haven't, hopefully everyone will be in by tonight.
I uploaded rosters into the draft room, so please double check for any mistakes.
Remember that positional eligibility between Ottoneu and Couch Managers isn't perfectly 1-to-1, so refer to this site to make sure of a guy's positions for the upcoming season.
-
Awesome, thank you. Good luck to all this season.

Good deal, thanks as always for setting it up!
-
Saaweet.. appreciate you being on the ball.
-
Slow auction room is set up.
link (free for you all to join): https://www.couchmanagers.com/auctions/index.php?auction_id=1111
password: ottonew
Once you join, please "edit team name" under auction settings on the bottom right and make it as close to your team name as possible (there's a character limit). Looking to start on March 1st!
-
Sounds good, thanks for getting it set up!
-
Thanks everyone for hitting the fees/keeper deadlines!
We've been starting our slow auction through Couch Managers on March 1st the last few seasons, and that's the plan this year too. I'll get the auction room set up a week ahead so we can get everybody joined up, and the draft itself usually takes a week or so to complete.
-
Just under 5 hours left to make cuts! Remember that you can't make any cuts after tonight until after the draft, so if you don't open up roster spots now you won't be able to add anyone via the draft.
-
A little over 48 hours left to execute trades and pay league dues!
-
A little under two weeks left to swing those trades before the keeper deadline! It's been a fun offseason so far, I'm enjoying all the activity.
Also, friendly reminder that league fees are due by the 31st as well. There's usually a short grace period before you'd be kicked out of your team, but I'll send another reminder as we get closer.
-
Welcome!
-
Welcome aboard, good luck. 👍
-
Welcome to our new manager! Glad to have all teams accounted for again.
-
Just under a week left in arbitration, and then trades will be open!
I've reached out to the teams that haven't completed yet, hopefully we'll get everyone's allocations in (besides our one abandoned team).
-
Arbitration starts tomorrow!
Men of Steal still hasn't been picked up (I think Big Papi flooded the market with abandoned teams), but I post in the Managers Wanted forum so hopefully it'll happen soon.
Hope everyone is enjoying the playoffs!
-
I’ve marked Men of Steal as abandoned, should get claimed soon. But if anyone has a friend that wants the team, let me know.
-
Please abandon my team.
-
Congrats to our champ, and thanks to everyone for another fun season! I can't wait for 2025 to get underway, looking to make it a big comeback year.
If anyone is thinking of not returning, please let me know ASAP. Arbitration starts on the 15th, and I'd like to try to get any new managers in the league before then so that they can participate in the process.
Enjoy the playoffs, everyone!
-
congrats to the winners
-
Yeah man, happens to the best of us. We love this game because of how complicated it is haha.
Thanks for helping out, Generous!
-
Lol no problem, good luck to you
-
Glad I’ve been in league for 6 six years and.l know the rules…For whatever reason I came into draft thinking 60 day IL guys not only provided roster spot but also 50% salary relief on the players. Thank you for the clarification and I will quietly exit the back door with my head down. Good luck this year

Guys are moved to the 60 day when their MLB teams officially place them on it, it’s not an Ottoneu adjustment. You already have three 60 day IL guys on your roster. It looks like your lineup is locked at the moment because you’re over the cap, not because you have too many players.
-
Any idea when Ottoneu adjusts for players on 60 day IL. I have $5 coming back to me in relief which will put me below $400 but my team is now flagged as illegal lineup where I cannot participate in trades/auctions

OK gents, we did it!
Rosters have been imported. I had to do a few manual fixes, but everything should be lined up. Let me know if you see an issue.
Auctions and trades are open, see you all in Seoul!
-
With the overnight sleep, I feel like a 12 hr initial clock is unnecessary. Now that I know everyone is logged in and checking, I'll change it down to 8 hr initial + 8 hr extension tomorrow morning.
-
Yeah, I just went with settings I saw in a forum somewhere. We can change things if we need it to speed it up a bit
-
Whoops never mind, I found it in Couch Manager settings, 9am ET to midnight ET
-
Sorry if this is somewhere on Couch Managers and I’m missing it, but can you remind me what hours of the day the draft clock will be running?
-
Auction started, let the nominations begin!
-
Alright folks, everyone's joined! I'll push play tomorrow at 9 AM PST, and the nominations can start.
In the meantime, please look over your roster in Couch Managers and make sure everything looks right. It all seems aligned to me, but if there are any issues I want to get them fixed before we're underway.
-
Yup! I shot him a message. We'll aim for a 9 AM PST start time the morning after we've all joined up so everyone can finish preparations.
-
so just waiting on Billy Ball then?
-
That was quick! Only one manager left to join.
I went ahead and loaded rosters for everyone else, so while we're waiting to start, please double check and make sure everything looks right.
Remember that positional eligibility between Ottoneu and CM isn't perfectly 1-to-1, so refer to this site to make sure of a guy's positions for the upcoming season.

Ok, auction created (it's free for all of you):
