Sorry all, it's been a very busy past 6 months for me with some life events. But, I did allocate my arb money and thought I had set it all up correctly... Maybe I missed a team or something and it voided all the allocations I made, which stinks. I allocated in my other Ottoneu league as well and it work correctly.
-
My bad I completely missed arbitration - will definitely be back for next year however!

Yeah, El Paso, Breaking BABIP and RocketScience are probably goners. Lindenwood and Moneyballers have been active recently. The league goes through a fair amount of churn.
-
Lots of teams did not participate in the Arbitration process. Are they all quitting or just non participation?
-
That's it for Spaceballs II. (Although I hear the movie is in development.)
-
Spaceballs II have not made a move of any kind since April 8. I have sent messages asking if they have quit. I haven’t gotten any reply. I think the team should be abandoned. Unless someone knows an owner who would be interested in taking over the team.
-
Congrats to the Sharks on winning the title....another fun year in the books. I had hoped that the playoffs would have gone a little differently for me, but Dinger Derby can be unforgiving come playoff time. Thanks to Quick for his work as commish and looking forward to the off-season and next year.

Thanks for an interesting first year. I really enjoyed the slow draft and i am grateful for the weekly setting of the team as it allows me to give the team my full attention. I will try and see how to better construct the team for next year.
-
It was the Sharks over the Bats to win the third year of the Derby. And my team denied the consolation of third place to the Maple Leafs. I feel vaguely guilty about that, but the Derby is the Derby. Thanks everyone for a wonderful season.
-
Congrats to the Baby Sharks! 🦈 Ohtani and the boys were too much for us this week. Ironically, it was my bats 🦇 that let me down this week.

It doesn’t get more exciting than that, fellow Derbyists. The Bacardi Bats prevailed by less than 8 points over the Maple Leafs. And my thrilling comeback fell less than 3 points short of the Baby Sharks total. So the Bats and the Sharks will fight for the gold cup, while the Maple Leafs and I will fight for consolation. It almost sounds like the NHL. Good luck everyone.
-
Great matchup between the Moneyballers and the Bats. I’m slightly ashamed that it looks like I’ve backed into a win. My full condolences to the Lindenwood Stars, who deserved better.
-
Damn that was close….
-
Currently a few hundreths of a point separating. I've got baseball and football on the split screen, good luck Moneyballers!

Incredibly close matchup between myself and Bacardi Bats! Will be decided by Altuve vs Ginkel pretty much

In fact, it works just like a regular daily league, except for the maximum of 8 pitching starts a week. Sorry for the confusion.
-
I am wrong. It appears to be daily settings.
-
No, the playoffs continue to be weekly settings. Choose wisely.
-
Is it daily lineups during the playoffs?

Good morning. We have moved into the playoff section of our schedule. All teams can still add and cut players as in the regular section of the season. Ottoneu rules still apply.
-
Just a reminder that we are headed into the last week of our regular season. The top six teams will advance to the playoffs. The first week of playoffs start on September 2 and will see the number three team play the number six team and the number four team play the number five team in a head-to-head format. The number one and number two team have a bye for this week.
-
It is nice, this league is my favorite to manage in terms of convenience and how it changes for the playoffs. So, I can live with this one drawback.
-
It’s not possible. It’s equally annoying when someone comes off the IL without warning on a Tuesday. Still, having to set lineups once a week is nice.
-
I'm sure it's not possible, and this is an issue with all weekly leagues regardless of platform, but I wish it was possible for us to replace players who go on the IL midweek. It always sucks when someone goes down after lock on a Monday or Tuesday.
-
This is a friendly reminder that tomorrow is Patriot’s Day. The Red Sox game starts at 11:10 AM EDT. That means weekly lineups lock at 11:10 AM EDT.
-
There is a handy reminder on your lineup page: "All players lock 5 minutes before the first game of the week." The first game this week is Thursday at 1:10 PM EDT, so lineups lock at 1:05 PM EDT Thursday. The week to be careful is when Boston has the early Monday game on Patriot's Day.
-
I believe lineups lock at first pitch of the first game of the week, so the time will vary week to week whether there are afternoon games (or no games) on Mondays.
-
For us newbs of weekly setups what is the deadline Mondays to set team for the week?
-
A friendly reminder from your commissioner that this is a weekly moves league. So, if you want a player's stats to score for the two games in Korea, the player must be in your lineup by 6 AM EDT tomorrow, March 20th. Good luck to everyone.
-
Thanks for a successful auction Commish!!! I appreciate all your work!

Well this was my first ever slow draft and I really enjoyed it. Maybe jumped the gun on a few offers but not only was it a different experience compared to fast auctions but the preparation and research on players being called allowed me to prep for my other otto leagues. Thanks Quick for all the work.
-
Okay, after a little glitch, the import is done. I have checked the number and dollars for each team. They match what was in CouchManagers. Please check your rosters to be sure there are no further issues. The draft is over. You can auction, cut or trade players. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
-
Breaking BABIP, I'm going to assume you are done with the draft.
-
My bad - yes, I am also finished. Sorry for the wait.
-
Sorry, yes, I'm done.
-
Lindenwood, Breaking BABIP, Spaceballs - give me a sign. Are you finished or not?
-
Sounds good to me

I'm finished

I am good with that
-
There has been no action in the couchmanagers room for at least a day. Is everyone finished? If everyone is finished, I will import the results into Ottoneu and you will be free to trade or nominate in Ottoneu.
-
It is intermittent. It goes offline but then catches up then times out again.
-
I'm able to get in, but there is a banner at the top saying "Working on improving site performance".
-
Same here. Haven't been able to get in for an hour or so
-
Hey everyone, anyone else having issues with couch managers? I went to refresh and the page just keeps loading
-
Friday it is. Let’s say 10 AM EST so that people in other time zones can wake up if they want to.
-
Friday works for me as well....fully ready to blindly overpay on guys based on off season headlines of how good of shape they are in, etc

I like the idea of starting early before I'm tempted to blow all my auction money chasing small sample spring training stats!
-
I'm also good to go whenever. Sea Lions mentioned Friday; that's good with me. Start it in the morning at 8 ET to run it for a full day to kick it off?
-
Ready to start whenever!
