It does indeed seem like we need a new owner. Shadow, if you're still in contact, would you let Mercy Rule know that I can hold off posting the team until Wed night. For everyone else, please fill out our poll regarding your draft availability. Still haven't heard from 3 folks.

Hi, friends. The Cubs & Dodgers open the season in Japan on March 18th for two games. The traditional opening season is 8 days later on March 27.
Please vote at the poll link below for your availability. I added each of the first 16 days of March and will schedule the draft for the date that best suits everyone.
Get excited. The Cubs have pitchers and catchers reporting one week from today!

I texted him this message. Thank you so much. Hopefully he can get it fixed.
-
Shadow, would you please let Will know this via Niv:
Every user has a 10 day grace period to renew any team they have and was due on January 31.
If a team is not renewed by February 10th, it will show up on the Claim Teams page as Expired
If someone is having trouble paying for their team, they should email help@ottoneu.com immediately
They should also review this thread for common issues (remainder in community threads)
-
I didn't mark it as abandoned so he can't do that yet. I don't see any commish tool that allows it. Let me send in a note & see if there's some kind of hidden trick.
-
He should be about to buy it on the expired teams list
-
Will Stockton with Mercy Rule is locked out of his team. He tried to pay but it wasn’t accepting his payment then it locked him out. Can someone look into this for him.
-
That's more like it!
-
Less than 3 weeks left in the trade season--awfully quiet around here.
-
Thanks so much all the help
-
Welcome, Jon! Glad we got you up and running. Hope you'll leave a few decent prospects for the rest of us to pick over.

Should be all set. Let me know if there’s an issue

Ok, Jon has claimed the Spiders and is working on getting his arbitration funds allocated.

Yes, I see it also. Not sure why I didn't before.

I see it on there

Neither Cleveland Spiders nor our league name exists on that page, I just checked. Any idea why?

Just tell them to go to this link: https://ottoneu.fangraphs.com/claimteams, find Cleveland Spider, and click "Claim."
-
Oh, OK Steelhammer, just saw your message. Will get on it.

Just two to go for arbitration--any chance we can get a new manager in place to arb before the deadline?
-
Great news! I love an owner vouched for by another! Have them join Ottoneu & you can private message me their username. I can add them from that.
-
I've located someone interested in taking over the unowned team. I've played against him in different leagues for about 12 years. Who is acting as our commish? How does he proceed in becoming a league member?

A shame to see another original owner go, Papi, but I sure do respect your being smart about your time and energy. Be well & enjoy the postseason.
-
Hi Commish and owners, congrats to the winners, wanted to say it's been a pleasure playing with all of you this season. Got way too many leagues and cannot maintain the rythm (time consuming and $$$). So I won't be renewing many of my leagues like this one, got some talent to attract new owner for next year so you should be able to quickly fill vacancy. have a good arb and a great future season! Thanks Commish for great work
-
Thanks Chimps!

I've posted the opening & will let you all know when potential owners reach out.
-
Cheers!
-
Sure, I can do that much for my hobby. Thanks for explaining & hope we cross paths in the future.
-
Not all that much, honestly: sending out reminders for arbitration; setting the draft date; starting and ending the draft; ensuring that the league has 12 owners if an abandoned team is not claimed for some reason. Everything else takes care of itself. Let me know if I can make the change, thanks.
-
Hate to see you go, but I understand. I would be happy to help if I can. What is actually involved?
-
Arbitration is now open, and runs through 11/14. Last call for a new commissioner. Otherwise, when I abandon my team it will likely leave the league without a commissioner (I believe you can then email Niv to add one).
-
Great season all, and congrats to OZKING! I'm going to step back from this league next year, and will likely abandon the team soon to allow someone else to take part in arbitration (which begins on Tuesday). We will need a new commissioner, so feel free to raise your hand if so inclined.
-
Congrats Ozking...heck of a season!

Congrats Ozking! I was hoping to catch lightning in a bottle with Urshela and Iglesias but they couldn't quite get it done. Certainly made for an entertaining day though
-
Yesterday's double header ruined my work day because the extra BA point was very much in play for Scioscia Distancing 2.0. Thanks everyone for another great year.

Congrats Ozking. Really close race. Looking forward to 2025. Things can literally only get better for me.

Trout 💣 to kick off opening day! Happy opening day everyone!

Hello baseball fans - quick reminder that our auction is only 3 days away, taking place on Sunday evening.
We will allow a few minutes of grace for late arrivals, but will get started no later than 5:35 PST. Thanks!
-
3/10 works great for us.
-
Nothing scheduled for 3/10 yet, works for me
-
I'm down for that as well

Thanks! That date & time works for me
-
Hello friends! A reminder that tomorrow is the deadline for making cuts, and renewing if you have yet to do so. We also need to find a date/time for our auction...I'm going to propose Sunday 3/10 at 5:30 pm PST/8:30 pm EST. I'll wait a few days to see if anyone has a hard conflict. If not, we will lock it in. Baseball will be here soon!
-
Sorry to hear that Chimps, condolences to you and family
-
Condolences CC. Love the story--hope you keep singing happy birthday to both for a long time.
-
So sorry to hear that. Best wishes.

Dear league mates -- I'm staying in the league, but have ignored a couple of you recently because my mother passed away last weekend. The funeral is next week, and I expect to be back in the swing of things during the week of the 18th.
Stupid baseball fact: she & Willie Mays shared a birthday and I annoyed her as a little brat (sometimes as an adult) by making the third line of the song, "Happy Birthday, Wil - lie Maaaayyyssss".
Looking forward to anot

Arbitration is open – you have until Tuesday 11/14 to make your allocations! Let me know if you have any questions.
