If it makes a difference, this will be my first ottoneu H2H. Looking forward to it.

Haha yeah, I started the league last year mainly aimed at newer players (since it was my first time ever playing), but it wasn't a definite rule or anything lol
-
Other new owner says thanks for welcome. Happy to be here, but was wondering about the league name. I thought it would mean everybody in the league would be fresh and new to ottoneu, but I see that I have been in other leagues with some of you and some of you have been playing ottoneu for a long time . . .so how do you get the fresh ottoneu faces? I definitely need one.

Welcome to the league! And a welcome to our other new owner as well.
One more spot to fill and we'll be ready to go

Hi! I've claimed (after invite) The Big Red Machine. Upon moving to a new home in SoCal, they were renamed the Mustachioed Gentlemen. I'm an experienced fantasy baseballer (started in the 80s as a teen) with three seasons of Ottoneu play under my belt. I'm a pastor by trade and count baseball as my main hobby, traveling to stadiums (21/30, reset to 20 of 30 due to Globe Life) and playing sporadically in an 1886 rules league. (scvbb.com). Best of luck to all this season & thanks for the i

Also updated trade block if anyone wants a prospect or a 3B
-
Just set a draft day for a weekend night, close to the season start. Lmk if this works for everyone or if you have any other suggestions
-
Yeah, I think new owners get a free round of player cuts. I had posted the open teams before, but now that the season is getting closer I think people will be looking for teams again so I’ll make another post
-
I believe you get a certain period of time to make free cuts whenever you claim a team, even after the keeper deadline. For what it’s worth Big Red Machine hasn’t logged in since August and WRCPlus hasn’t logged in since April so I think we are going to need at least two new owners
-
Are there teams we need to fill? How does it work if we have owners that aren't picking their keepers, end up dropping, but the keeper deadline has passed already?

If you click on your team name at the top, then there will be an option for “arbitration” on the top left. Then there will be a drop down menu of all the teams to choose from. You have to allocate all $25, or none will count. And you have to allocate at least $1 to each team, with a max of $3 per team.
-
K does someone want to explain how I allocate $ for arbitration?
-
That’s weird. I haven’t seen that at all. Try messaging Niv on the community forums?
-
For some reason I stopped being able to assign arbitration dollars. I get a JS error now. I took a screenshot, but I have $13 left.

Looks like there’s 4 managers that haven’t logged in for awhile, so I’ll be emailing them asking if they’re still in. I’ll give them a few days, and if I do not hear back I’ll look to fill those spots

Hey Commish have you heard from people if they plan to continue? Only six of us have participated in arbitration, so it doesn’t look good so far

I will be back to try and redeem my playoff upset.

Congrats to DumbLindor’s Army!! And everyone else to a great season!
Just making sure, everyone is good to go for season 2? If we can get a roll call going so I know whether I need to find new managers ASAP, that would be awesome
-
Well that -18 start by Wade Miley didn't help my any. Good start to the week lol.

Ahhh, my fault then. Thanks for clearing! Sucks, I would of bid more if I knew.
アメノヒニキク on

The good part is that the winning bid is only $1 higher than the next highest. So if you put a $4 bid, but no one else bids, you’ll still get him for $1. Or if I bid $10 & your highest was $4, I’d win him for $5. Double check the Rules section in the top if I didn’t explain that very well lol
-
For auctions, you never know if you’re the highest bid or not. Like we mentioned earlier, anyone who wants to bid can make a silent bid & whoever has the highest bid after the time is up will win. So even if you’re nominating a player, if you really want him & are afraid someone will outbid you, then you might want to put more than $1 up.
-
Being able to grab an player at auction last second by outbidding is garbage. Should reset the clock. I checked before going to bed and and woke up at 9am to find the player I lost the bid.

I had this issue in my other league. Move the player currently in UTIL to bench first. Then move Ohtani to UTIL. IDK why you have to do it that way, but it worked for me
-
How come I cannot put ohtani in utility spot?

Big Red Machine's trade block has been updated!

Exactly correct. To clarify, you must drop a guy who is at least $2 in order to start clearing cap space.
-
Awesome, thanks. Yeah, I dropped two guys to get under the cap and my total # of players but I ended up getting myself in a bigger bind. Thanks for the info.
-
If you drop a $2 player, you get $1 back immediately, and the other $1 back when/if someone picks him up etc. LMK if you had any other questions.
It also will explain everything under the “Rules” section you can click in the top right of the site
-
Sorry I tried to reply to your message, but I just noticed it got kicked back in an error.
Anyways, so you’re over the salary cap by $1, so you need to cut at least $1 in salary. You can do this via trade or dropping a player. If you do it via dropping a player, remember that when you drop a player you only get 1/2 his salary back immediately. You wouldn’t get the other 50% of his salary back until another team picks him up. So if you drop a $1 player you don’t get anything back immediate
-
Can someone help lol. It’s telling me to fix my financial situation but I’m not exactly sure how to do that.

Big Red, are you playing now? I have an owner who wants your team if you didn't want to play, but we'd still like to have you if you're going to keep playing.
-
That is really good to know, I had no idea it was a silent auction. Now may I please have Max Fried back? Thanks....
-
It's a silent auction that ends at a specific time regardless of when anyone else bids on a player. So everyone has a set time after the auction is announced to place a bid on a player and the highest bidder wins.
-
Does anyone know if the auctions add additional time after a bid? Like if someone bids with 10 seconds left in the 48 hour time frame, do they just win or is there some mechanism to prevent that? Cheers
