Thanks Arraez! Glad to be here and open for business, need a stud 3B or 1B? Come knocking. I plan on keeping Shohei though ;)

Good morning everyone. We have a new owner who has taken over for Ragans Against the Machine. Welcome to the league!

Congratulations to the Dodgers for winning the World Series! As a reminder, please complete your arbitration allocations or let me know if you will not be returning to the league next year. Arb closes on 11/14 at which point trades / drops open back up and I will also start sending out polls for potential auction dates for next year. Happy offseason and here's to a another fun year!

Arbitration has opened! I hope everyone is enjoying the postseason, meanwhile back here in Ottoneu arbitration has opened. Please ensure you spend all your dollars or none of your allocations will count

Congrats to Baseball Furies! I was trying to remember the last time you weren’t in first and it looks like you’ve been at the top since April 1!! Impressive wire-to-wire win! And great job to Arraez and Shine and The Two Zac’s, topping 18k is tough to do. Hope you all enjoy the playoffs, catch you in the offseason!
-
Hey all, as we head into the climactic final weekend of a great season, I just want to make sure people are quickly resolving illegal roster situations and every team ends the year with a legal roster. Happy final week and may your favorite team make and win in the postseason!

7/11/2024 5:15 EST: Dodgers' Miguel Rojas flies out to Phillies' Johan Rojas as the auction for the Mariners Josh Rojas commences.
-
Just updated my trade block, let me know if any of you have interest.
-
It cuts their cap penalty in half
-
Why do we keep adding players in auctions then dropping them immediately? Just don't bid if you don't want them
-
Looking to move one of Alonso, Freeman or Ozuna for an equivalent SP
-
3HR on the bench. Amateur move.
-
Always Start Studs
-
The short answer is no, Minor Leaguer's points don't count towards your team's points.
Only points earned by players in your starting lineups will count for you. A minor league player can only earn points for you when he is promoted to a major league starting lineup and you put him into your team's starting lineup.
-
Really crucial question I should have asked way earlier: do Minor Leaguer's points count? I am guessing no.
-
Commish - nice job with the slow draft. I was skeptical but I thought it worked out well. Sorry I was absent at first - real life got in the way.

Our auction is complete! Rosters have been fully imported and transactions are now open. Please, please, please let me know ASAP if there is an issue with your roster. And let's enjoy the season!
-
I'm done so that works for me
-
We haven't had any active auctions today. If no new auctions are started by 7pm tonight I am going to end the auction and we will transition to in-season ottoneu
-
Hey all...we are trying to finish the auction as quick as possible...the simplest way (ie. the way without changing any rules/times) is just for everybody to click pass if you are not planning to bid anymore on a player...if 11 managers click pass on a player the auction ends right there. This can get done real quick if we're all doing that.
-
Yeah, thanks for running the show, Ethan! It seems the Espino problem is just adding insult to injury—looks like I’ll be cutting him as soon as the draft is done, unfortunately. If it’s easier for you to leave the wrong name until post draft, you can.
-
appreciate your efforts to make this work for everybody commish.
-
I imported the auction progress back into ottoneu - this should make management a little bit easier. It looks like Daniel Espino's player ID link is broken so I might be manually cutting him from Morristown's team after each import... But everyone else looks good to me - please let me know ASAP if something is off. I'll be doing these imports every day or so as the auction goes on to keep things as in sync as possible.
-
Alright everyone, the auction has started. We all have 1 nomination per team at a time to start off but we will up that as we go on and get more comfortable on the platform.
-
I'm flexible for anything...
-
Cool, just wanted to confirm that the slow draft starting tonight was the only available option. Here's hoping it isn't too much of an imposition.
-
I think I was previously available but am now unavailable if we are talking about tonight specifically
-
Slow auction kicks off at 6pm tonight. I assume people's schedules haven't magically cleared so we can do a live draft - but if you were previously unavailable tonight and now are, please let me know because I agree live drafts are better.
-
So what time does the auction kick off tonight? We really can't live draft this?
-
The password to join is "oooption"
-
Here is the link to our auction room. Please join as soon as possible and name your team the same as here in Ottoneu so I can import rosters https://www.couchmanagers.com/auctions/?auction_id=848
-
I'll set it up and send out instructions after work today. Please join as soon as you can and name your team the same name as it is here on Ottoneu to make it easy to import rosters onto the platform
-
Do we have a couchmanagers draft setup for next week?
-
Sorry, starting on the 13th. I’ll update the banner
-
Sending to confirm, but we are doing a slow-draft on March 13th or this evening?
-
Yes, you'll need to create a couchmanagers account and enter the auction room on there, and it interfaces with ottoneu via roster import / exports. I'll send more info on that this weekend when I have some free time but here are some ottoneu threads with info https://community.ottoneu.com/t/couch-managers-recommendations/7056 https://community.ottoneu.com/t/questions-about-couch-managers-slow-draft/8849
-
I've been out to lunch but do we need to set up a separate account for Couch Managers? How does Couch Managers interface with Ottoneu?

Quick note for those that have not used couch managers before—it uses different position eligibility rules from Ottoneu, so if you’re searching for someone by position you’re better off doing that in Ottoneu and just searching by name in couchmanagers. For example cm lists Geraldo Perdomo as SS/2b, but ottoneu has him as 2B/SS/3B. In general you’ll occasionally get more eligibility in Ottoneu, but it can be good to know for guys that move around the diamond a lot.
-
Here is some info on the features for the slow auction. My understanding is that it is pretty customizable and settings can be changed during the auction if we find there's something we like / don't like. If you look at the couch managers site there have been a few ottoneu auctions running and you can view those draft rooms to see what it looks like https://www.couchmanagers.com/auctions/guide.php
-
Good but some info on the format for the slow draft would be useful

Works for me. Can you post a link to how it works for those of us who haven’t done a slow draft before?
