Agree 100%
-
I'm cool doing it in one sitting if we can. Going to be tough to find a time when all 12 of us are available

I wasnt disagreeing, I completely understand, I wrote that just to assure everyone. Your point is correct.
-
I just meant, like, every year. Hashing out the auction details is the toughest part. Always compromise to be made from everyone. It's worth it, though. The auctions are a rush.
-
We will have 2 months and we will actively find a 2nd date if needed, no one will be left out
-
For what it's worth, scheduling the auction is the hardest part of this game.
-
My preference is to go as long as possible
-
I’m not saying we stop at midnight, just using that time as a point “to see where we are”, We would still have almost 2 months, and I know time flys by but I think we can figure that out at that point or after. I’m not saying we can’t make it in one shot, but can’t guarantee we will either. If we go w a second date, no one will be left out, everyone will need to agree, that’s why the more we get done the better and that’s the way we should look at it.
-
I haven't done an Ottoneu auction yet, so no previous experience to talk to, but I'm reading expect 6-8 hours. If that's the case and we're talking 3.5 hrs, if we can't move it earlier I think we should agree on a date/time for the 2nd half ahead of time. I joined knowing the date/time and could make it work all the way through in one shot. My schedule can get iffy and I'd hate to see a few folks not be able to make a follow-on after being committed half way. Just my 2 cents.
-
Same plan though, go to midnight, see where we are, try to get majority done.
-
I've seen some go to 8 hours
-
General plan would be go to midnight EST and see where we are, def want to get majority of it done, rather than 1/2 and 1/2, at that point we can pause and make decision. We will see where it takes us. I would just say bid in a way that doesn’t continually add time over and over.
-
I hear start up drafts can be 6 hr affairs. Are we going to marathon it, divide it in two, other plan?
-
lol, sounds good! just making sure.
-
Hope so. They took my money!
-
Question for Placeholder- just based on your team name I want to make sure "you are in"?
-
OK, looks like we are then?
-
Just posted the link in my other leagues. Hope to get someone on board. Been really excited about the draft on Saturday.

Just joined. 5×5 neophyte. Excited to draft from scratch!
-
I posted in the community, on Slack, and it's public so anyone can see it under "Join A League". If you know anyone that's interested send them to that tab or I posted the link in the community and Slack. Thanks!
-
Great, let me know
-
I may have an owner. Will know later tonight or tomorrow
-
Ok, strange bc in both the league message board and private one the date is written or referenced and privately they asked, either way, if anyone knows of someone for a final team this league is public so they can go to “join a league” and easily join. I’ll post in forum and slack tomorrow.
-
If go to team settings you can “withdraw from league” up until before draft which looks like they did.
-
Are you able to withdraw on your own? Or is that something I need to do? Idk if you get your $ back if I do it?
-
The draft is this Saturday, it has been clearly written that way, sorry if you misunderstood. Let me know your decision, I would have to find a replacement quickly. I sent you (I think there are two of you (comanagers)), a private message, please read that before withdrawing if that is what you do. Also, since there are 2 of you, would 1 of you be able to make the draft? Plus there is a chance the draft doesn’t complete and we schedule some for another date that we agree on. Things to thinkabout
-
Yes
-
Are we set to draft this Saturday?
-
Full!
