Daily it is!
Final check that everyone is returning for next season...?
-
Daily for me also. Thanks!
-
I prefer daily as well.

I second what Lefties said and I'd strongly prefer to keep daily lineups. However, what I meant by my comment is I would not drop out of the league if we switched if the majority decides for it. But I think the beauty is in playing daily as opposed to weekly.
-
I personally strongly oppose weekly lineups, I suppose I'm a bit biased as I had set my lineup for all but maybe 3 or 4 days last season. That said, the weekly setting also devalues some of our teams that skew more towards SPs than bench bats, while making the decisions to start certain pitchers in a given week more of a roulette-feel, and on top of that, the inherent randomness of injuries after the start of every week along with certain teams pushing back pitcher starts at certain points.

I prefer daily lineups, but I'm open to switching to weekly if majority wants it.
-
Is everyone happy sticking with daily lineups or would you like to switch to weekly to remove some of the admin?
-
Thanks for the heads up about arb, almost forgot, I will be back next season.

Reminder for everyone that we've got a few days left to get your arb numbers in! Is everyone other than Metro back for next season?
-
I'm sorry to say that I won't be returning next season. While I've enjoyed playing, I won't have the time to devote to Ottoneu over the next six months as I will be out of the country for most of November, some of December and almost all of March. These seem to be the times when I would need to concentrate on preparing my team and I won't be able to do that. It's been fun, and I hope to return for 2026 if there are any teams available then.
-
Well managed, Lefties! Gutted to miss out on a top three spot but a fun season!
-
Thanks for the fun season y'all, hope to see everyone back next year

Haha, bit of a cautious call from the Anarchists there!
-
Wow, sitting AL CY runaway winner Skubal against the Rockies who are one of the worst lineups in the league, I guess we're throwing in the towel 2 weeks early here huh

Looking to acquire an SP before the deadline. Open to trade ideas.
-
I updated my trading block and untouchables. Open to trades before the deadline. This season has been rough on me...
-
Haha, wouldn't be the worst idea! I missed out on Ramos so was desperate to get TF
-
Looks like the strategy for next season is to just put bids on a bunch of random Giants players to eat up some of y'all's budgets...
-
Okay, I've just updated the time. Think that's our best solution -- let's go with this, looking forward to it!
-
I mean I'd prefer 7pm to 6pm although I could manage 18:30 at a push.
-
I'm good for 18th, but I'd prefer 7pm GMT for a start time.
-
I can do evening on the 18th as well.
-
18th works for me as well.
-
Evening of the 18th works for me too
-
Hey all - thanks for letting me join in the league. Looking forward to playing. As far as draft dates, I should be good for the 18th evening.
-
I'll be travelling home so next Sunday doesn't work for me unfortunately. How about the 18th?
-
I'm okay with moving to an earlier date, but can't make it before 20:00 on weekdays. Weekends should be okay at any time. If everyone is good for next Sunday, maybe we can place it then?
-
I'm good either way, personally; if we did want to try and make a pre-20th weekday draft work, I'm only restricted on Tuesdays myself (so 19th wouldn't work for me unfortunately). Any other day I should be good.
-
The reason why I brought up the earlier start date was that I'm not sure whether those stats would count or not. Last season 1st place came down to a gap of only 187 points which could've been the difference from just 2-3 games.
-
I could do the 19th, but I don't think drafting after the Japan games is a huge deal (and is probably going to be pretty common this year).
-
Was thinking about this the other day, LG. I don't have any weekends free before the Opening Day in Japan due to both of my parents turning 60 this month. I could potentially do the 19th if that works for anyone? Although I'm aware time difference makes it tricky doing weekdays.
-
Any thoughts on moving up the draft from the 24th? Looks like the season officially starts on the 20th.
-
March 24th sounds good to me as well.
And welcome aboard, Andrew!
-
Sunday 24th March is good for me.
-
Hey folks, my name is Andrew. I just took over the Anarchists. I am getting back to Ottoneu after taking a few years off. Looking forward to the season and getting to know y'all! (Also - March 24 is fine with me for the draft)
-
Works for me, I don't really have any room, but I'll try to join just to learn your strategies. :)

Sounds good to me.
-
How does Sunday 24th March suit everyone for the Draft?
-
Shame, thought they’d be back to defend their title.

The weekend or the week leading up to Opening Day would be okay for me, just not on Opening Day.
-
Hi all, hope we're all looking forward to the start of Spring Training! We've got one space in this league with Bomb Throwing Anarchists not renewing -- as ever, if you're got anyone keen to join, drop them a message. Does anyone have any preferences for Draft Day?
-
Hello all. I appreciate you letting me run a "trial season" last year. It was fun but I'm going to bow out and abandon the team. One and done! Thanks again
-
Hey guys! Looking forward to another fun season in 2024. We've currently got one unmanaged team, so if anyone knows of someone who might be interested, give them a shout.
-
Got unfinished business, so I'll be back

I'm definitely playing next year. Can't wait for Opening Day!
-
Is everyone here for next season? This off season has been dead and some teams haven't even checked in.
-
Ok, got it to work, sorry for spamming. You can't use a non-US issued debit card, but credit cards work fine.
-
Hi everyone! Have you been able to extend your teams for next season? I couldn't have my payment processed and reached out to Ottoneu, they said they'd changed their payment processor and had to manually enable payments from my country. Then, they only accept US-issued debit/credit cards. I believe most of us, if not all, are European. I don't have a US-issued card.
-
Hey guys! I'm sorry to have to do this, but I am going to have to abandon my team on here. I have been reaching out to people throughout the season and the offseason for trade talks and received one response. I'm definitely not upset or anything! I'm just going to focus on my other two leagues and leave this team for someone else. Thanks for the fun year!

Hey y’all! Updated trade block. Looking to find some SPs. The guys listed are who I would prefer to move but no one is off limits.
