Hi all - I set the draft to Sunday, March 3rd at 12pm. Let me know ASAP if that doesn't work. The draft should only take an hour or 2 this year due to keepers.
Also another reminder cuts are due the 31st!
-
Thanks, you the man!

Thats only if you hacr a wallet and balance with them, not for just making a payment. Also see the forum response:
https://community.ottoneu.com/t/paydala-sign-up/13448
"This fee is for anyone who has a digital wallet on Paydala with a balance. Because of how we’ve implemented our integration, this is never true for Ottoneu customers. Any deposit is immediately given to Ottoneu to pay for a team... "
-
So when I go to pay and use a credit card, why do the terms make it sound like I'm opening up whole new bank account in my own name? It's talking about inactivity fee of 2.95 if I don't make any transactions in 6 months. I'm so confused.

Hey everyone! Quick update: welcome Peter to the league who will be taking over Baserock's team.
Also looks like dues are due on the 31st (same as the cut/keeper deadline). You can renew at the ottoneu dashboard which is here (https://ottoneu.fangraphs.com/userdashboard)

Hi all! Results are in - Middle draft date won (between Feb 22 - March 9). I hoping to get one more person to join shortly to replace Gaussian (unless you appear??). Then we can schedule a day. Will aim for a weekend during the afternoon so it's not too late with the time difference for Mike. The draft will be much shorter than last year, probably a couple hours max. Also - couple more weeks to finalize cuts/trades!
-
Welcome back Jimmy! Good to have you in the league again.
For the draft, I’ll point out the season starts March 20th with two games in Korea. So maybe early or mid-March is best. Also, since I’m 5 hours ahead, an afternoon time slot would be ideal if possible!
-
With complete candor, I don’t have the cap space for Ohtani and will likely cut him. If you’d like to acquire him and not leave it up to auction, I’m entertaining trade offers. $65 seems like a lot for a guy who’s only going to hit Util this coming year, but for the keeper perspective, he scored me 1856 points this past season despite missing our playoff weeks. $65 is a steal for that kind of production when he’s fully healthy next year.
-
We always used to have last year’s winner throw out the first player before Ottoneu…would be nice to keep the tradition…

But yea the draft will probably be an hour or two, no where near as long as last year since a lot of players will be kept
-
Rounds depends on how many players are kept. Each team can keep up to 40 players and must be at $400 or below by Jan 31.
Draft order doesn't matter because it's auction, but probably the winner from last year throws out the first guy. Or maybe last place. Something like that.
-
For the draft how many rounds is it? And assume by by Jan we need to be under 400 dollars and doesn’t matter how many players are kept? How did we do draft order etc.

Salaries are already updated on your roster!
That would be fine with me, maybe I'll maybe a Google form so we can take a poll
-
So, how does the arbitration player salaries work? Do we keep them and the salaries get automatically updated, and cut them if we don’t want to keep them at the new salary?
As for draft date, how does late March work for everyone?

Ps- trades are allowed. So no need to make a bunch of cuts now, can wait till January or whenever as long as the deadline hasn't passed
-
Finally - what are your thoughts on a draft day? We can do it anytime after Jan 31. Feeling an early draft, middle, or close to the start of the season?
-
Hi everyone, welcome to our new owner of Springfield, Jimmy! Some of you know him already from the old CBS league - happy to have him back.
A note on Keepers - I just confirmed it is more of a cut deadline. So between now and January 31, 2024, you can cut players. Anyone you do not cut by then, will be kept.
Still have not heard back from Baserock, so if anyone knows another person who is interested in joining, let me know.
-
Hi all! It's been fun checking out the arbitration results.
We may need 1 - 2 new people to take over teams next year, so if you know anyone who may be interested, please reach out! Would love to fill the spots ASAP. Let me know.

THREE DAYS LEFT FOR ARBITRATION! STILL HAVE FOUR TEAMS LEFT!

Get your arbitration dollars in!
-
Yup that's correct, thanks for reminding everyone! Get your allocations in, there's a new button next to the lineup page for you to explore.
-
Arbitration period is open, ends 14 November I think. If you don't allocate $25, at least $1 per team, you won't get credit for any arbitration allocations.

Your roster will likely become "illegal" during our off-season due to players coming off the 60 il or other real life team moves. Just as long as you were legal on the last day of our regular season then it's all good!
-
I think I’m one player over the limit, but it won’t let me drop a player. Do I just wait?

Thanks for putting this league together Andy! I had a great time and am looking forward to an active offseason! I agree that rosters should be legal heading into the offseason.

Congrats to everyone! This is def different than cbs, but I think I kinda like it better overall. Some things I like less, but that's gonna happen anywhere. I look forward to seeing how the arbitration plays out, since that sounds super fun.

Happy end of season everyone! Big congrats to Cooper Kai Dojo on winning the first championship! 2nd place is Return of the Gristle and 3rd place goes to Doc Madness. I'll send out another message about arbitration which starts 10/15, but for now, you have till Oct. 1 to make any final roster moves.
Also I had a lot of fun this year, and hope to see everyone back! But if you know you don't want to join up again for next season, please let me know ASAP if you can so we can fill your

Hello fine folk I've never met from this random league - I'm conjuring up interest in an Ottoneu basketball league, and I'm not above shameless promotion. I enjoy this league's competitiveness, and would welcome some overlap as I give basketball a go. Starting from scratch, $50, categories. Ottoneu is going through some changes, so for now, I will need to manually add teams by username. Payment will get figured out by the site later. If you have interest/questions, please send me a message here.

Fyi there are issues with email notifications to Gmail accounts. I haven't been getting auction notifications or anything either

Looking for a dynasty rebuild. Making everyone available. Open to all offers. Looking to add younger players. Looking for Cheap salaries and studs. Open to moving higher contract players.

Gotcha, thanks!

It goes by standings order. If there is a tie, the lower team in the standings wins
-
Or I guess it would be auction priority?

Is there any waiver priority anywhere? If I nominate a $1 player, someone else can win over me by also bidding $1 with a higher priority?

Also FYI - Week 1 is an extended week, it goes until April 9th according to the schedule. Still 10GS for the long week.

Yup!

Oh, that makes sense. Is that a commish only option?

It's because I'm sending them as an "email to the league" rather than posting on the message board. I guess it handles them differently.
-
Wondering why I see emails for Andy's messages, but if I hit reply it says it's sending to "ottoneu@ottoneu.com" and I don't see the messages here. Is there something I'm missing?

I am good for any start time ... be here at 6:30

Yup 7pm. I sent out a league email early today, left me know if you didn't get it

Hey, was there a resolution to the start time? Just I know when to hop on.

I am good with any start time, but 1030/11 is my Tapout for nighttime. No issue if we have to finish Sunday. I am flexible all-day
-
Any chance we can push the draft to 7:30? I know the later time isn’t ideal, but I have to get our baby to bed before I can draft.
-
I’m good with the 23rd and am flexible with start and stop times.

I have to tap out by 11. I have twins under a year and they start their wakeups around 1230. I am good starting at whatever time

Is anyone opposed to starting the draft on the 23rd at 6pm EST? Seems drafts take 5-7 hrs so depending how it goes, maybe we can power through and complete it all on the one day.
