Turns out IL 10/IL15 guys still count against our 40 man roster in real life and in here so I'm in cutting mode today
otherwise, happy opening day

If someone wants another Otto H2H league. I have two openings in this league! Questions, DM me or just claim one of the open teams.

I have normally seen it something along the lines that you have 48 hours to bring your team into compliance. Then it normally is an unwritten rule because you can’t really penalize team, can we? But it can come up with cuts/players being reauctioned and cap penalties being removed. It is a framework for teams to know the boundaries.
-
sometimes folks are hospitalized or go on trips or get married or have babies or have deaths in the family and our dynasty world understandably takes a backseat. We want everyone to stay involved and glued in, but sometimes things happen. It gets to two weeks and I'll have another manager step in, at least temporarily.
Hopefully that doesn't happen, of course...

if a team doesn't set a lineup for a day (b/c it can't because the lineup isn't in compliance), it's not the end of the world. Two days in a row and it starts to become more problematic. We get to three days and I'm emailing....at 5 days I've sent 7 emails. I've only replaced managers who didn't get back to me or failed to set lineups for 2 weeks. (that was my limit).

What is the rule for in-season? Every league handles a little differently. For instance, I am out of compliance and will be for about 24 hours while that trade goes through. It is good to know now, as it comes up once or twice every year.
-
BTW, if you end up "out of compliance", the league commish is not going to have a fit until 3/27 ish when the regular slate of games begin (b/c by then you'll be prevented from setting daily lineups). But being over limit by players or salary is ok, right now. you just can't make trades, or set your lineup (it's a pain). But also hopefully it's very temporary as we get clarity on folks that make the team out of ST or end up on IL (freeing a roster space for you)

if anyone has a Yahoo fantasy account and wants to take over a Dynasty team in there, it's $50 and a decent team. We haven't yet opened the season (we will once I have the replacement owner). Anyway DM me and I'll transfer so you can have a look

Drafting tonight!

otherwise, we end up painfully waiting through minutes and minutes of dead time. Which doesn't become a big deal until around 11pm ET then you're like oh man, i wish i had that 20 minutes wasted time back b/c we'd be done!
STL BROWNS on

i will pause the draft and manually unlock you for the ensuing round. 3 misses and you're out! frozen through the remainder of the draft
STL BROWNS on
February 29, 2024 1:46 PM
-
it won't let me put "5:15" for tomorrow's start time so I'll pause it at 5pm PT for 15 minutes (and you can load up your queue especially for nominations). The way nominations work is that it will lock you for a round if you miss your nomination (you have 30 seconds to nominate)
STL BROWNS on
February 29, 2024 1:45 PM

Ok, here's a proposal. We start at 5:15pm PT/8:15pm ET. But, I pause the draft for 5 minutes each hour. So at 6:15pmPT/9:15pmET and 7:15pmPT/10:15pm etc. and hopefully Clark can join us around 6:20pm (after the first hour)
In the draft I did last Friday (a full team, brand new league) there were TONS of guys to add on the waivers after at a far better value than draft day. And, the guys picked up at the draft were cheap when everyone ran out of $$

If we start at 6pm PT/9pm ET, it could be 12:00 or later friday for you east coasters…

I'm good with pushing it back Friday night or Saturday night works for me too (I'm east coast)

Sat works for me. So does a one hour later start on Friday. I can be flexible.
-
well Clarks that's a bummer. There will still be steals when you get on (maybe even more steals) and you'll end up saving a ton of money, but obviously you'll miss out on a few guys.
Right now, for the East Coast folks, we're looking at an 11pm finish time. so it may be hard to start later.
and we already pushed back one hour (from 4PT/7pm ET)
If everyone agreed, we could move to Saturday (anytime, I'm open all day). But we'd need 11 more managers to agr

Hey fellas, I’m not going to be able to get to the draft room until about 9:15p est. Coaching AAU and just had my practice moved to Friday night, I’m at the mercy of the club. I should be ok, I’m unlikely to be active early on. Sorry guys
-
I'm being told that this could be up to a 3 hour draft so be prepared!

slight change to the draft time (an hour later). the draft will only last an hour (I think)...maybe 1.5? we're all not totally redrafting and have limited budgets..

I would like to make sure it is okay, but I would like to cut Schwarber, too. I thought he was $24, not $34. Thought I would ask before I do it. Thanks.
-
I would prefer 7 CT. I hate to be the new guy and asking for an adjustment, but I have three young kids. Getting past dinner time would be fantastic.
-
And welcome. We are fully paid up and ready to go!
I have Friday March 1 as our 2nd year auction draft 7 ET/4 PT. That work for everyone?

Commish - I accidentally didn't get Schreiber cut. Could you please cut him for him?
-
Hello everyone, I am Ben aka Balboni Sandwich. I took Gaussian's team and paid for it. I will be making cuts shortly to bring my team into compliance. Look forward to the year.
-
Final tally is 11 paid (last year's champ, Clark's sporting goods re-joining us). Guassian cricket was the only one who hadn't so I'll mark it abandoned and we'll get a new manager

ok, i've been reading up on the Otto' Rules. If a team is over 40 or over $400m by 1/31 then they can't draft. In order to become "legal" (i..e under 40/$400) they would have to cut players and incur the 50% cap penalty of the player cut. But if the player is cut before the auction and then drafted during the action, the cap penalty disappears.
So, it'll be up to an individual team. I think the penalty of no auction draft and no adds/initiating trades is penalty enough
STL BROWNS on

Alternatively from the "I don't care if someone is over 40 players or $400m", we could do option b which is allow teams to have "out" players who should be IL eligible. We do that in Yahoo leagues by carrying them over and adding them back in after we finalize rosters. So if a team has 5 "out" players and 44 total players, they would be at 39 legal players and ok to draft 1 (as long as they are also under $400m)
