So here's what we are going to do, EVERYONE (except GFY, unless that team pays today and let's us know with a post) is going to be unlocked to make additional penalty free cuts. This is a ONE time cut, not all day, but it does end at midnight eastern time. You have to cut everyone at once (not one at a time or come back a second time). It's a one time cut for paid teams for one day. No penalties? Sound good?
-
Since turning on the free cut rounds, Scrubs cut 12, WA Kickback 5, Suarez 4, Tittsburg 3, WA Kick 2 more, Scrubs 7 more, Suarez 5 more, Tittburg another 3 and then the new team GFY Express made 23 cuts. Suarez, after I announced I would unlock for a final round of cuts, you made 5 more cuts. But then yesterday said you wanted more cuts. I'm just at this point where it's unfair to the rest of the league unless I unlock everyone (except GFY express, b/c of the payment issue).
-
At what point do i turn it off? some of the new teams joined before 1/31 and were technically supposed to make the cuts before then (without freebies) but I added those new managers/teams into the free cut round.
-
Here's how cuts work. When newly joining managers join, they get one free "round" of cuts. Once the team uses that, the system reverts to a lock. Later, we'll all be unlocked to make cuts that charge us 50% of the players cost as a cap penalty for late cuts. For now, the problem that i'm having is continually reopening cuts after rounds of cuts are made. some of you made cuts then asked for more cuts and then made more cuts and now there is a request for additional cuts.
-
He will unlock it again just keep checking. Also do them all in one cut. I did one went back and it was locked again lol
-
I am not able to cut players, still telling me that the rosters are locked???

ok, the following teams (with newly joined owners) can cut players today: Scrubs; Kopech's Dad; Beaver Liquors; Suarez is Back; Tittsberg; WA Kickbacks
-
it'll happen. remember, either i can do it manually if you DM me or we can wait til the system let's me reopen
-
We need to make that round of cuts for the new owners happen, I didn't get to cut near as many as I needed to.

My highest salary is 11 bucks and u just are taking him from me lol. Sounds like collusion ππ he was mad and dumped all his best players ?
-
Sounds fishy. I swear I seen trout on the roster when I clicked the team also We get shitty teams and lose our best players. While u have no penalties and stacked teams lol Why would he drop his best 5 players ? Makes no sense to me. Also why are the payouts so horrible ? They keep a lot of money for what ?
-
As a leaguewide PS, Right now all our rosters are "locked" via Ottoneu admin...I'll keep checking. For most teams, drops will now be a 50% hit. For newly joining managers, we'll have to talk about the parameters of another round of penalty free cuts....
-
That said, when you took over the team, those drops were already made. And, because they were already made, you didn't know they had been on your team.
Sometimes when teams make drops, it leads other teams to make corresponding moves (seeing certain players in the pool with the idea at a certain cost, leads them to make a drop).
You can still target and get those guys and hopefully at a lower price!
-
Before you took over this team, it appears that the last manager came in and made those drops. I wish it was a default rule that a manager had to pay first (but I'll try and lock teams next year to ensure payment before drops are made).
-
How come I had 5 players that were dropped as soon as I took over this team ? Look back at the transactions. (That was not me) kinda sucks because I would have kept 3 of the 5 Atleast. π. How did that even happen ?
-
Ok it actually let me drop guys but I can't find it again now lol When I click the cut player screen it says locked
-
i can likely manually make drops for any team though....
-
well, it's not letting me "unlock" rosters at the moment...so I'll try to figure out why, or how long this will last
-
Ok let me know when u unlock mine. Sorry I thought I had 7 days still. I'm still trying to figure all of this out lol
-
Also, as for Frederick/Aspence rejoining us. He was the prior owner too, but just hasn't yet paid....I'll give him another day to get the payment made
-
For new managers, it's going to be a daily locked, unlocked thing. But keep reminding me and I'll keep unlocking (but please get the drops done ASAP as there are just 5 days left of the new manager penalty free drop period)
-
Looks like we are full , My roster is locked also it won't let me cut anyone.
-
Newly joining managers will receive 7 days to make drops...we still need Frederick's team to be taken over.
-
Eric, try it now
-
Hi I'm Eric, I am a new owner and need to cut some players but my roster is locked can somebody help me with that?

I can confirm Drew Paid, Drew, I'm checking a box to allow you penalty free drops for 7-10 days....if you want to make any to free up roster room or cap space.
We're now just one team short (it's in the "abandoned" teams list on the Ottoneu "claim teams" page)
-
Whatβs up guys, Iβm Drew L, I just paid and should be all set.

any newly joining (and paid) team will be able to do the same (If a team joins and tries to make cuts before paying, I'll reverse those drops until we have a paid team doing it)
-
Chicago Tony's should be able to make cap penalty free cuts for the next 7 or so days
-
We are at 10 paid. we've had another new joiner. Drew L. Hopefully he pays right away. And I marked Frederick's team abandoned so we can get someone responsive (I emailed Frederick and didn't hear back but see that he had been checking in the league over the last week but didn't make the payment deadline)
-
great, welcome team formerly known as Chicago Tony
-
And I am that buddy - first order of business is coming up with a better team name, ha.
-
I got a buddy hopping in to claim one of the teams so we should be getting close
-
*fist pump* I've emailed two of our managers who didn't renew by 1/31 to see what's up....
-
Thanks for taking the initiative to keep the league alive, @STLBrowns! Appreciate you being on top of the ball.
-
Yep @tittburgh feelers, I see it marked paid. that's 9. We need 3 more and we're set (we're well on our way).
-
I just sent mine also
-
8 paid. Kopech, Beaver, Suarezback, Crawfords, STL Browns, HB Sharks. Tempest, Cardinals
-
Hey Jim B, welcome. yeah, you pay at the top of the league home page or under the "ottoneu tab" on the top left and then "extend" next to the team name/league (I think). The money is held by ottoneu and/or its partners
-
I'm in ! Do I just pay the website ? This is Jim b. I've never used this website before
-
Anyone got some friends that want to join the league?!

We're up to 5 paid, Adding Beaver Liquors
-
Agree with Tempest. While the vote off system is unfair, and arbitration is way better, we're stuck with the former system for now (but have it changed going forward). Still trying to right the ship (and welcome back Beaver)
-
@BeaverLiquors, I think it is too late to nullify the vote-off for this offseason because we do need some form of arbitration in place. I see that the new commissioner already changed the arbitration system for next offseason to allocation, which I much prefer and argued for last season and again earlier this offseason.
-
Hey sorry I haven't been paying attention to the boards in the offseason, but so what is the story with the voted off players? Are we nullifying that for the upcoming draft?
-
We're at 4 paid: STL Browns, Crawford, HB Sharks, Kopech's Dad.
Just 2 days left!
-
just two days to renew
-
man someone really destroyed this league.....but it wasn't me. Let's keep it going.
-
4 Days left to get the payment in. 2 down, 10 to go..
