Morning - on the starting auctions front - I see that as the only avenue to add players at this point? If I start auction, I assume I still must win the bid to add, 1$ min? Cutting Trevor Bauer felt great.

Hey, league, welcome Steve, the new owner of THE GAME. Didn't take long to pick up the abandoned team!
-
Heads up, league: we will need to find a new owner for "THE GAME" since the previous owner had some unexpected family priorities crop up. I'll be posting on the Managers Needed site, etc. Pass the info along to those you think might be interested in joining us. Thanks.
-
We'll start the draft in 1 hour. Please be a little early so we can start on time. If you are going to be late, let me know. It's kinda late but you could get a proxy; if so, again, let me know. Thanks, see you soon.
-
Yes, we are using the Ottoneu software for our draft. Use the "auction draft" page, under the "Auto News Alliance" tab. Let me know if there are any more questions, etc. See you a few minutes before 8 pm edt tonight. Thanks.
-
Are we doing the auction right through the website or are we using a different platform?
-
Reminder: we’ll start the draft tomorrow 3/22 at 8 pm edt. Please come a little early so we can start on time. See you there!
-
Excited for the draft but more excited baseball is back.
-
OK, book it. Draft date: March 22, 8PM EDT. See you then!
-
If any of you know the My Analytics owner, please reach out to him. I'm not getting through. thanks.
-
Save Tuesday, March 22, 8-12 PM EDT for our draft. It's not official - confirming with one more owner. stay tuned.
-
I have another draft scheduled for Monday Mar 21, but the other two dates work.

I can do any day if it starts after 8 PM ET, possibly 7:30. Earlier than that gets tricky with kids sports.

Front runner times so far are 5-9 PM EDT on March 21 (Mon), 22 (Tue), and 26 (Sat). 6 votes in. Weigh in so we can set the date! thanks.
-
I'm out of the country from the afternoon 3/27 through the afternoon of 4/5 so I will be completely unavailable. Would love to attend the draft so hopefully something before 3/27 will work!
-
Please complete the doodle calendar, link below, set up for March 19 - April 6. The sooner everyone completes it, the sooner we've got a date. Thanks. So glad we have a labor agreement...

Agree with waiting until we know what's going on before we set up the draft. Also agree with Trash on both counts, unfortunately.
-
Really disappointing the two sides let it get to this. I won't be surprised if we don't see baseball until this summer.
-
Sorry…Mountain Time for me, but that’s in between everyone else, so I’ll figure something out. Later the better for me.
-
Thanks everyone. Unless I hear differently, we have a manageable set of time zones. I also like the idea to wait until we know a start date for the season before setting up the draft. Comments welcome.
-
Sao Paulo, Brazil (UTC-3, 2 hours ahead of EST), I'm very flexible and can do daytime, late nights, early am, just can't do March 5th and 19th.

Eastern time zone. Later evenings after the kids are asleep work for me best and if that's the case, I can do any night. I also agree to wait until we have an opening day time and maybe a little bit of free agency? I feel like free agency can change some values of players.

Central Time. I'd also like to wait till there's some idea about when/if opening day.
-
Eastern time zone, but I stay up pretty late :)
For that time frame, I should generally be good for almost any day except Thursdays.
-
Eastern time..set a time and Ill make it happen..I would just suggest we wait til we know an opening day..either way they will need 4 weeks of spring training..just my thought ✌🏻

Right, Trash. League, let me know your thoughts about scheduling a time for the auction draft before April 1, waiting for a new CBA and associated schedule to be released and then scheduling, or other thoughts/concerns/options before us. The other league for which I'm commissioner wants to set a date now to avoid being unable to find an open date, with personal calendars getting crowded out by other activities. I'm open to whatever. Let me know. Thanks.
-
Central time zone and I will draft whenever but should we wait until MLB and the MLBPA have figured their stuff out? It could be tomorrow or it could be June lol.
-
I'm building a calendar to pick available times for our auction draft using the "doodle" app. **Please tell me your time zone**, so I can suggest appropriate time blocks per day from which to choose. I'm assuming we'll look at dates from mid-March through mid-April for the time being. Comments welcome.

Welcome to The Game, glad to have you with us!

Well, that was fast. Welcome our new "Mediocrity" owner, SCOTTY13. Glad to have you!
-
Had to abandon the "Mediocrity at Its Best" team. I've posted on the Managers Wanted Community Board (https://community.ottoneu.com/t/one-opening-in-active-20-fgpt-league/11280/2). Please let your friends know. Looking/hoping for a quick pickup. If anyone is active on the Ottoneu Slack channel, can you post? Thanks.
PS: after we get the new owner, we'll start working on a date for the annual draft.
-
What's up everyone, if you like H2H, there are 4 teams available in 1317, a 2nd year league with 2 matchups/week, which helps take out some of the randomness. The teams will get a P/F round of cuts, but there’s lots of good keepers and great talent in the auction pool. The teams are Orlando Solar Bears, Animales, KCKings and B's Big Ballin Benders.

Would deal Betts, N.Cruz, or Brantley for anyone that I would keep, if anyone is still looking for any last-minute deals.

Just a reminder to everyone that the deadline to make your offseason cuts and get your rosters legal is 11:59PM EST tomorrow, Feb 15th. As a reminder, no transactions are allowed afterwards until the draft concludes. Note, if a trade is accepted prior to that deadline it will still go through even if the processing time is after the deadline (but you will have to keep everyone involved through the draft). If anyone has any questions, let me know!
-
Still open to making a couple last minute deals. Not particularly looking to move Bichette, Alonso or Jimenez but will listen.

FYI: the keeper deadline will not be extended beyond 2/15, according to Niv Shah, Ottoneu creator, manager, general emperor, etc. Meaning, you have a week to make trades and cuts necessary to get your team under the 40-man, $400 cap limit. Best wishes, all.
-
Please welcome our newest owner, clarkmann9, who is taking over the Beef & Chedda team. Glad you joined us!
-
Hey, I just took over Beef & Chedda and an open for trade offers! Still sorting through my direction but willing to listen on anyone.

Unfortunately, Beef & Chedda has been abandoned. If you know of someone who is interested in claiming this team, please let them know. First come, first served.
-
Note that you don't need to get under the 40 player, $400 limit until the keeper deadline, now scheduled for Feb 15. However, tomorrow is the date by which you must renew your team for 2022 (11:59 PM EST).
-
Here's a gentle reminder that team renewals are due Jan 31, a week from today. Thanks to the 5 who've paid up. If you're not planning to return, please let me know asap. Don't want anyone to get caught without a team on Feb 1. Thanks! Looking forward to a great season, whenever it starts...

Hey everyone, just a friendly reminder that the deadline to renew your team for 2022 is January 31st (though if possible please renew sooner!). Hopefully everyone is planning to return, but if not please let me know ASAP so we can try to find a new manager ahead of that deadline to give them a chance to make a few moves if they want to.
