I vote we start as soon as it's ready.
-
I'm contacting couch managers to make sure there is only one Ohtani in the draft (since that is how Ottoneu has it). Once that is complete we can start the draft, or wait until opening day. I am fine either way. I would say lets start sooner than later unless someone has a schedule conflict, let us know. Thanks.

TLDR version, keep track of your roster positions, and don't draft 40 catchers! (or zero catchers, which is more likely to happen and actually did once before).

Now that everyone is logged into the draft website, one word of caution. Coach Managers will let you draft 40 catchers, or zero catchers, which will be a problem when your roster gets imported into Ottoneu. Your 40 catcher team would be imported OK, but you would have an "invalid roster," and Ottoneu would make you correct it before you could set lineups, etc. You would have to cut players for a penalty and pick up whoever was leftover from the draft to get your roster into a valid sta

Looks like we're full up on couch managers. Do we just start nominating players or should we wait for an official 'start'?
-
I'm in too! Everything looks good commish, solid work!

Thanks, I finally found the rules, I thought they were league specific at first so I was checking League Settings. I'll get it figured out eventually.
-
From the rules:
In non-head-to-head leagues, a starting lineup consists of one slot at each infield position (catcher, first base, second base, third base, and shortstop), five outfielder slots, one additional middle infielder (second base or shortstop) slot, one additional hitter from any position (utility slot), five starting pitcher slots, and five relief pitcher slots.
-
I can't seem to find the lineup details. It looks like a weekly lineup, but how many of each position do we field each week?
-
Hey everyone.....first time Ottoneu player here. I've had my eye on it for awhile and can't wait for the season.

Great to have the league filled up! Commish — are we shooting to be done with the the draft by opening day or to start then? I’d vote for starting as soon as we can but I’m good either way.
-
Hey, ya so I put the date later on the settings in case the league didn’t get filled in time and get all screwed up. We will shoot for April 7 as long as no hiccups with the third party drafting tool. Which there shouldn’t be.
-
Thanks dowie for all the work on this! Question: you mentioned in the managers wanted forum posting that the draft may start opening day, which I think is April 7. Date in the setting page says April 10. Makes no difference to me when we start, just asking. Thanks again!
-
Hey all!! Stoked we filled out the league so quickly, I’ll work on getting the slow draft set up. In the meantime if you are new, make sure to read thru the rules and ask questions if you’ve got any!
-
Good day fellow managers. I know some of you. What can I say except I want to try a slow draft. All the best, Chris.

Hi all. Greetings from Toronto. Just joined the league; first time doing Ottoneu and super pumped to give it a shot. Message board works for me too.
-
I'm good with message board, I'm getting the emails just fine.
-
Message board works for me, though I also use Discord.
-
Thanks for sure to Dowie for setting this up! In my other Ottoneu league the message board works pretty well for league-wide communication, assuming everyone has the option turned on to receive emails of new postings.
-
Hello all, I just joined today (Coop15). First time at Ottoneu, with prior fantasy experience. Thanks for organizing the league Dowie! Since I have no prior Ottoneu experience, no rec on best mode of communication. I have seen some references to Slack, which I have not used but am happy to learn. I've used Discord. Open to anything that everyone else would like to use. Thanks again. - David

Hey all! This is the first time I've set up a league of complete strangers, so any suggestions on the best mode of communication?
-
Awesome! Welcome aboard!!

Hi all, I just saw the league advertisement on the community forum and decided to crash the party. I've played ottoneu before, but never a slow draft or weekly lineup league and I'm excited to try both out!
