• How do you move the player to the lineup?

  LightSABRs on March 29, 2023 10:22 PM

• Good reminder for everyone to make sure they do that

  Mat-Su Miners on March 29, 2023 9:41 PM

• Should just be a button that says lineups at the top and then you can put the players in the starting section

  Mat-Su Miners on March 29, 2023 9:40 PM

• How do I put my players in lineup?

  LightSABRs on March 29, 2023 8:20 PM

• idk about transferring my team to someone. this is a dynasty. I'm still going to play to win.

  Mat-Su Miners on March 23, 2023 2:50 PM

• yeah, me too Ace. i figure that if were in the running at the end of the year for money (i.e. a playoff team) that we need to transfer our team to someone from a state that isn't banned... and then hope that WA gets it together and updates our archaic laws on "sports betting".

  STL BROWNS on March 23, 2023 2:48 PM

• I didnt know that lol. Im in washington. That fucks me

  Mat-Su Miners on March 23, 2023 2:45 PM

• Also heads up to managers from these States:
  
  b. If you reside in an ineligible state, you are permitted to make a purchase and play in a prize-eligible league, but you are not eligible to win any prizes listed herein. The ineligible states are: Arizona, Iowa, Louisiana, Montana, Virginia, and Washington State.
  
  I don't remember seeing this in the terms before...but maybe i saw a different page with the payouts and didn't click through to this one. But definitely first t

  STL BROWNS on March 23, 2023 2:43 PM

• Re payouts/league fees, does anyone know the answer to this question: We paid $1200 in. Per team administrative fees are $20 (12x20= $240). Here is the payout: $600 $200 $100. = $900. That's $1140 accounted for. What happened to the other $60? Or am i just real bad at math?

  STL BROWNS on March 23, 2023 2:40 PM

• Otto is a community platform. it's run by the community, which is really helpful. Again, it's not at all similar to yahoo

  Mat-Su Miners on March 11, 2023 12:26 PM

• i looked over the rules Ace. maybe i didn't catch every little detail in the manifesto but I tried to set up the best league experience it was letting me. It wasn't so easy. And, i contacted Ottoneu and they didn't want to help. they wanted me to ask the "community". Anyway, it is what it is.

  STL BROWNS on March 11, 2023 12:25 PM

• I just dont know if you can change settings at this point. But yes, agreed. Otto has a whole rules charter that explains all this stuff that I'd have looked at before setting up the league.

  Mat-Su Miners on March 11, 2023 12:23 PM

• Yeah, As commish you should look at the rules. :) It would have been better to have a GS cap each matchup rather than a season inning cap, because that will mean if someone hit's their cap, they score no more pitching points for the rest of the year? I would be game to vote to change it to 8 GS per week rather than a season innings cap which will be hard to follow. it makes sense to have one or two starters each day and a full bullpen without a GS cap.

  Destiny's Beaver on March 11, 2023 12:21 PM

• No it means that you get 2 per day. if you set the cap, then you're capped to a certain number of starts per week. So this way does allow for more starts.

  Mat-Su Miners on March 11, 2023 12:15 PM

• I see. I didn't want a cap on Starts allowed so I went with zero. that to me was seemingly setting no cap. oh well.

  STL BROWNS on March 11, 2023 12:15 PM

• I agree. means you need to pick and choose starts based on matchups.

  Mat-Su Miners on March 11, 2023 12:13 PM

• There is a 1250 IP max anyway. If we had a ton of SP slots, we’d knock out that in no time. This provides more season long value

  Double Stuffed Orioles on March 11, 2023 12:12 PM

• you have the GS cap set to 0 so it means, 2 SP slots per day

  Mat-Su Miners on March 11, 2023 12:10 PM

• In head-to-head leagues and during the playoffs, 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) and five relief pitcher slots. The number of starting pitcher slots depends on the league's Per Week GS Cap setting

  Mat-Su Miners on March 11, 2023 12:10 PM

• welp, i see no option as to how we can. We'll just be an OF/RP dominant league. smh. oh well. maybe it'll be great. and we'll all pick it up as we go and end up liking this format a lot...for now...its disgruntledness time....

  STL BROWNS on March 11, 2023 12:07 PM

• it just means 2 starts per day. not 2 starters. Also, yeah i drafted with the roster in mind so it would be annoying to change it now

  Mat-Su Miners on March 11, 2023 12:06 PM

• well, 2 SPs is ridiculous. is that editable even before the draft? this system was not very intuitive and i don't see it anywhere (the editing of positions). did people really draft 3rd tier relievers b/c of the 5 RPs thing and is that really going to effect anyone to go to 4 RPs and 3 SPs even if we can? or keep 5 RPs and go to 3SPs..but again, it's probably all academic b/c i don't think we can.

  STL BROWNS on March 11, 2023 12:05 PM

• Also looking at your team, it seems like you drafted 1 RP so of course you'd want to change it

  Mat-Su Miners on March 11, 2023 12:01 PM

• This isnt yahoo. I dont think you can change the settings, especially after the draft as that would have altered my draft strategy and I would not be okay with that anyway. It's supposed to be max starts per week, 2 per day I think.

  Mat-Su Miners on March 11, 2023 11:47 AM

• then again, i have no idea how to change it even if i could (maybe you can't)...and maybe you vets can weigh in. are these always the settings? just 2 SP and 5 OF?

  STL BROWNS on March 11, 2023 11:46 AM

• well this part is ridiculous. the 5 OF and 2 SP and 86 RPs. seriously, any objection to my changing that to make it realistic. ugh. can we drop 1 OF spot and add a CI or something. I didn't change those settings or even see how. (and i tried to go through every option). And this part is even worse: To get credit for a pitcher's performance, you must play him in the same role as his major league team uses him. (i.e. SP or RP) Fine, if we have 4 SP and 3 RP max

  STL BROWNS on March 11, 2023 11:43 AM

• awake and done!

  STL BROWNS on March 11, 2023 11:33 AM

• I think the draft has to be ended by the commissioner before we can bring players up for free agency

  Destiny's Beaver on March 11, 2023 11:26 AM

• hope this easy because I,m simple

  Mudhens on March 10, 2023 7:07 PM

• just 2.5 hours away from our Dynasty marathon draft! I know i'm going all in on Albert Pujols. I got to have that guy for the next 20 years!

  STL BROWNS on March 10, 2023 4:53 PM

• Stoked!

  Destiny's Beaver on March 9, 2023 7:45 PM

• Reminder auction draft tomorrow, 4:30pm PT/7:30pm ET

  STL BROWNS on March 9, 2023 12:43 PM

• We'll only have one first year draft. Enjoy the process.

  Darby Daisies on March 7, 2023 6:42 PM

• Quick nominations will be key. But I think it’ll be mathematically impossible to finish under 5 hours, lol… and it’ll be GLORIOUS!!!

  Ultra Slim Fast Plan on March 7, 2023 6:09 PM

• ok, moving up to 4:30pm PT/7:30pm ET

  STL BROWNS on March 7, 2023 2:51 PM

• We have 40 roster spots...and $400 to spend

  STL BROWNS on March 7, 2023 2:12 PM

• I am good whatever time Friday

  LightSABRs on March 7, 2023 1:40 PM

• Hey all. Any of those times should work for me.

  The Canterbury on March 7, 2023 12:34 PM

• Any idea how many roster spots we will have?

  Darby Daisies on March 7, 2023 10:42 AM

• I would be good with any time after 7:00 ET.

  Darby Daisies on March 7, 2023 10:41 AM

• I'm good with any of those 3 options (7:30/8/8:30 ET)

  Gleyber Day on March 7, 2023 10:18 AM

• i'd suggest we move up to 5pm PT/8pm ET, or slightly earlier (i.e. 4:30pm PT/7:30pm ET). However, i won't do it if anyone objects (b/c of work/commitments,etc). You've already paid, and the draft was set at 5:30pm PT/8:3pm ET Friday so this idea is to be helpful (to east coasters), but not hurtful in the sense of preventing someone from beginning the draft. So, any objection to a move to 5pmPT/8pm ET or even 4:30pm PT/7:30pm ET?

  STL BROWNS on March 7, 2023 10:12 AM

• Wow, it's fantastic news to say we're full. Thanks to everyone who reached out and helped us get to 12! The next order of business is the draft. On the appointed day (Friday) at the appointed time (currently 5:30pm PT/830pm ET), please come back here (i.e. this desktop app) and I'll hit "start auction draft" and we'll begin a 40 round auction! (beware, that's a ton of players and could last up to 5 hours, though we may be more in the realm of 3-4 hrs). So in light of how long the d

  STL BROWNS on March 7, 2023 10:10 AM

• OK but where do we draft?

  LightSABRs on March 7, 2023 9:44 AM

• We're full. Should we think about moving the draft a little earlier in the night Friday since it will take a long chunk of time?

  Destiny's Beaver on March 7, 2023 8:44 AM

• Hey all, we're up to 10 teams!!! Just two more and we're good to go to draft Friday!!
  
  If you know anyone who's interested, invite them to join: https://ottoneu.fangraphs.com/processinvite?code=eyJMZWFndWVJRCI6IjE0NzAiLCJJbnZpdGVyIjoibmNkYXZpcyIsIkludml0ZXJJRCI6IjIxNTk1NyJ9
  
  And a special shout out to Destiny's Beaver for joining and helping post to recruit additional managers.
  
  I'm excited to get out league rolling!

  STL BROWNS on March 6, 2023 10:50 AM

• @Gaussian cricket: the league settings are requiring that i pick a date....but i've also emailed about four new managers from the ottoneu community message board

  STL BROWNS on March 4, 2023 5:32 PM

• My two cents is not to lock in a draft date until we have all 12 owners. Don’t want to lose potential owners just because we stuck with a firm draft date.
  
  And I think if you hold the line and keep the league open, we’ll get more and more in the next week+. But I’d push the draft out more toward mid-to-late March. More intel on injuries, batting order, etc. by then.
  
  FWIW

  Ultra Slim Fast Plan on March 3, 2023 10:09 PM

• ok, well, i pushed back one more week. i contacted otttoneu customer service too about changing to 10 teams and they said that $100 leagues had to be 12 teams. that's fine, but we just need help filling it, so they've suggested we hit the ottoneu community forum...

  STL BROWNS on March 3, 2023 3:56 PM

• well, we're back down to 6. Should we push it out to next friday or find another day next week? maybe its the day that's getting everyone...or is it too early for the west coast? anyway, thoughts appreciated.
