Are we still doing the draft today even though we aren’t full?

How many playoff teams do you all want to have? Currently it is set at 4

I don't think it is giving me an option to change it to anything other than points

based on the settings it looks like it will switch from 5x5 scoring to points once the playoffs start

Does anyone know the answer to this question:
If it was points, are we retaining playoffs in a Roto format? Never seen one that has an arbitrary roto cutoff and then switches to points for playoffs.
If I need to change the settings, I can. It gives me two options for H2H Fangraph points or H2H SABR points

From what I understand, yes, unless you release them first. This is my first year as commish so I'm still learning the process.

ok so as of right now i don't have to do anything? i noticed severino was selected off my team. so he will just go into the auction draft as normal?

Don't forget the draft is this Sunday at 7:30 Eastern Time. I believe you have to make your roster cuts before the draft if you do not want a penalty for waiving them

The only remaining team without a manager is now The Great Curve

The vote off system works like this. Every year at the end of the season, you can place a vote for one player on each team to go to arbitration. If that player's name is brought up during auction, you can bid on that player, but the original owner of the player selected will get a $5 discount off their bid

hi all. how does the vote off system work?

We have two teams left to fill. The Great Curve and Johnlu are the only teams remaining without a manager.

Was last year a full points league? Or a 4x4 roto?

Since we changed the scoring system, every one got a chance to make more cuts.
As far as starting from scratch again and redrafting, I am against it. We may have people leave every year and we can't redraft every season. It defeat the purpose of having a dynasty league. Hopefully we build up a league where the same managers stay every year, but there is a good chance we will. So let's stick what we got, release who we don't want to keep and have fun this season.

On returning owners and the drops -because the scoring system changed, I believe the drops were opened back up to allow us to adjust as desired.

Are returning owners still allowed to be dropping? I thought their keeper deadline was 1/31?
GF Chaunceys on

still 2 weeks before the draft, so not too worried about that yet with the remaining open teams. as for redraft, i'm obviously pretty satisfied with my team but if everyone else wants to redraft I'm not going to be the only one to object. just ready to get back at it.

Their response time is incredible. Niv said if a league wasn't filled by the start of the season, then refunds would be issued. We can also move the draft date back if we need a little more time, but not much more.

Welcome to the league GF Chauncey.
We only have three available teams currently. Steal Your Face was taken by Darth Bader. They have not given me any communication about a cutoff, but I will ask Niv (Ottoneu director) and get that information for us. I will message him now.
We can't redraft now because some people only stayed in the league because of the players they had. I finished in last place this past year so maybe we should lol.

New to Ottoneu this year, what is the cutoff for those last 3?4? teams to be filled before the league gets punted and we get a refund? Hopefully, at least, 48 hours out from auction to allow time to prep.
GF Chaunceys on

I believe the plan is to hold a draft before the season starts. Everyone is free to cut anyone they like on their rosters that doesn’t fit the 5 x 5 scoring and keep whoever they wish to to keep too
-
Would be down with a redraft, due to scoring changes. A lot of owners not returning, too. Would be a way to get a bunch of those slots filled.
GF Chaunceys on

Looks like the scoring option already changed. If changing the scoring system should we do a fresh draft as well as some may have drafted based on the prior system?
-
Just signed up - am fine with date/time. Would also want 5x5 roto scoring
GF Chaunceys on

Just keeping this going—I vote we switch to 5 x 5 scoring and I vote we schedule the draft for Sunday March 26 at 7:30pm Eastern time.
-
We need to agree on a draft date and format change soon. I can't post what we are doing until we make up our minds

I am going to open a round of cuts once everyone has signed up. If you know anyone who wants a team, better claim them quick. Raging Birds has already been claimed by a new member, Jeremy Styner.

I'm cool with either stat option, though I did originally hope to join a 5x5 league (those you mention) so certainly not bothered should we switch to that. May impact roster construction though, so knowing sooner is probably better - not sure if we'll be able to cut players prior to draft if this does change, but I might want to.

After looking into it more we have two options. Keep the scoring system the way it is or switch to traditional stats. The traditional stats would include AVG, HR, RBI, SB and Runs for the batting stats. For pitching it would track Wins, Saves, ERA, K's and Whip.

I am glad you asked id love to see our scoring updated. Maybe we could take a vote?

What would you think about adding a few categories like wins, saves and RBI's? Any other suggestions?

Redlegs, thanks for doing that. I'll see if I can find one or two who may want to join.

I looked into how we can keep this league going. I asked Ottoneu how we can replace the commissioner and volunteered to take over. We would need 6 people to take over the existing teams and they will be given the opportunity to drop any of the players they do not want to keep before the draft. I've asked a few more questions about how to proceed and will follow up with you all once I have more information. If you know anyone who would like to take over one of the teams, please let me know.

I think the teams showing in red on the standings are the ones who didn't renew? Hopefully we can fill those slots and get cranking.

I think once we figure out who has stayed and who is gone we can recruit some new teams and schedule the draft?

Is this league still alive?

Thanks Moose; good time this season. Hope all those planning to return are voting on arbitration - looks like a good way to even some things out. Looking forward to the next go round.

Agree with LordPorkChop, and congrats to all the playoff teams. I look forward to arbitration, keeper selection, and another auction draft. I assume same scoring system for next season?

Good season all. I've enjoyed my first attempt in this format. Moose, I'm eager to see how these final tow days shake out; good competitive finale regardless. Thanks for keeping it interesting.

How is arbitration done for this league? Will cap penalties count against us next year?
