Last bit of housekeeping (less imminent), but we'll need to lock in a draft date. Date hasn't been considered (and Mar 6 isn't my suggestion); just saw it defaulted to Feb 1, so wanted to push back.
-
Hi everyone - just a quick reminder that both the keeper and dynasty extension deadline is fast approaching (January 31st), so please be sure to take care of both responsibilities. Shout with any questions. Thanks!
-
Oh yea! Shoot, dereliction of duty admitted. Making the change now.
-
There was a vote to change the trade review window from 48 hours to 24 hours with a deadline to vote by Dec 31st. I don't believe there were any 'no' votes and we're past the deadline so was just curious if we could enact that rule. Sorry for any confusion.
-
Not sure I follow the message DT? Feel free to DM any specifics to help me understand, or you can keep here if you think it applies to the league. Either way works for me.
Thanks!
-
Now that we're past the 'change the trade review window' are we able to change it?
-
Retraction accepted; trade will remain as is.
Happy New Year to all!

I retract my protest on the Krang trade.

I meant to counter with Logan Webb and screwed up with Cobb. Comish I responded quickly on this screw up and I hope Krang will do the right thing. But willing to accept what ever the league decides.

Hey all - I just claimed Choir Boys...figured it'd be a good project for the next few years (but I may be a moron). Pretty much anyone except Witt available. Who am I kidding, this team stinks...anything not bolted down could go, so Witt is also available. Looking forward to an active league.

Welcome indeed! Why do I get the feeling that Choir Boys is going to take a lot longer to fill… hmmm.

Yes! Welcome to the league, Jaesong!

It was proposed earlier in the year that we move from a 2-day trade window to a 1-day window. Vote YES if you agree with the change, vote NO if you want it to stay at 2-days.
Voting will close when we get a majority, or December 31 - whichever comes first.
I vote yes.

Hey there - I can abandon the team for you. Thank you for playing!

Hey I'm finding myself too busy for ottoneu. How do I surrender my team?

Trade season is open again! No pickups allowed, but we can trade and cut again.

Good news! Choir Boys allocated before setting sail, so at the very least we'll have full team participation. Now, I'll work on filling the slot before the deadline, and the new owner will have the opportunity to revise. But again, worst case if it takes some time, we'll still have allocations by Nov 15.
-
Agreed. If he's willing, its better we ensure the dollars get allocated.
-
With arb starting in 2 days it would be awesome if Choir Boys could allocate his arb dollars then whoever takes over can make necessary adjustments.

Here are the two responses I got with a bit more detail.

Hi everyone - Choir Boys let me know that he won't be returning to the league next year. Ahead of arbitration, I wanted to temp check you all for what might be the best option in this case. I asked the Ottoneu message boards, and have a couple ideas (and welcome any others):
1.) Ask Choir Boys to allocate out on Friday as a favor before setting off
2.) Try to get someone new before the allocation period who will be a perma-member of the league
3.) Solicit the msg board for a v

Thanks! Still waiting on stat corrections- seems we may share a lead. Quite an intriguing finish either way. Fun fact I learned: if any of the potential wildcard ties had caused a Game 163, it would have counted as a regular season game for roto leagues and pushed the season end a day later!
Also, clicking the tools icon above>"calendar and finances" will show the previous year calendar, where all dates happen to be middle or end of month, so I imagine you can get a

Looks like Niv posted the upcoming dates, and it may track beyond that as well.

Anyone have the off-season calendar? First timer here. Want to know when I need to update my valautions.

...and am confident/hopefully that no one will put themselves in an intentionally illegal roster the last week of the year to stash/store an extra 20 guys. I'm also not going to be too impressed with the players selected for such a 'move' anyway, so part of me wants to say knock yourself out... but yea, don't I guess?
-
In terms of caps, I think the roster count makes more sense than the salary - salary will get flushed out by the cap heading into the draft, so it doesn't really do you a whole heckuva lot of good to be over/way over. As for roster to 40, I can see how that makes sense - but since this year is fully in swing, I would want to put that up to a vote to enact post-'22 (unless there are strong feelings that we NEED this NOW). I am not worried about people being over 40 if by nature of COVID/60-IL...
-
24 hr trade window also works for me.
-
In another league I'm in we have a rule that teams must get roster to 40 and salary to under $450 once the season ends. This, among other reasons, is to combat that "roster hoarding". I only bring it up as a thought rather than suggestion.
I'm also in favor of the 24 hour trade review. 👍
-
Aaaaaand he's back everyone! Shortest retirement of all time!
-
Oh interesting... I suppose you can technically set your lineups for the rest of the season knowing you won't be able to make start/sit moves nor make trades/acquisitions, and that's the behavior being referenced in the rule. As I understand it, the "roster and salary cap limits" from the rule extend to the offseason until rosters lock and the $400/40-man rule takes effect.
Also, yes to shortening the trade review window to 24 hrs.
Also, also, pour one out for the Ye

Thanks Kylo and FCW - very helpful. Kylo - your note is I suppose what I was thinking we should at least think about, but completely agree that I don't think we'll see that. Feels like everyone operates in good faith :)
-
Technically, rule I.c. states "At no time shall a team willingly go over roster and salary cap limits. If a team knowingly does this, they will face penalties at the discretion of their league's commissioner." So if there ever is a situation where someone is clearly abusing the rules (adding 20 extra players to have a 60 man roster before offseason cuts), you have the power and authority to undo that. But I don't think we will run into that situation.
-
Every team except Tornadoes is going to be rostering more than $400+ of players at some point this offseason. So if someone wants to nominate a player for auction in late Sept whose value is going to inflate by $1-2 plus any arb dollars from other teams, and they have the cap space and roster spot to do it, go ahead. The auction + arb are checks to make sure no one is gaming the system.
