I was thinking the same thing about the draft date.
-
understood. i guess we wait and see. i suggest coming up with some alternative draft dates. we may get lucky with a experienced owners who can draft on short notice but the fact that the draft is listed as tonight might be hurting our chances too. so maybe set a deadline and post a new draft date?
-
We don't have to move the draft to avoid refunds. It's a manual choice by commish, or at the start of the season (March 30th).
I don't want to do 10-team either.

I have being doing this for a long time and a 10 team league no no appeal to me.
-
or just commit to a 10 team league
-
let's move the date before that happens.
-
No reason to pull the plug and nor to what to become a 10 team.
-
Looks like we went the wrong direction this morning. Not sure why anyone would drop out now. Refunds will happen if the league doesn't fill up to draft before the season. No reason to pull the plug now.

I see you went to Community to post for one more. Good work . Hopefully we can get one more ASAP.
-
Looks like someone else might have left, do you want me to reach out to the league I commish and see if anyone wants to join?
-
And, we're back !!!!!!
-
A few of us have quite young kid(s), hence the last draft times (after bedtime).

Hey all! I just took the open spot. I should be good with 8 pm est for Friday and Saturday. I have an infant, so may have to step away unexpectedly, but I will communicate that in the chat.
-
Went 0/3 on my reachouts sadly. Post away thank you all
-
I posted in Reddit League Classifieds today. Have not posted it elsewhere. Feel free.

This stinks. I just invited someone from another league of mine.
Have you tried posting in on Community?
-
Looks like we lost one. Hopefully we'll fill up again before tomorrow.

Welcome everyone. Glad we got filled up. We can definitely talk about breaking the draft up. We'll plan to take a short (10 minute) break at the 2 hour mark. Once we come back, we can look at where we're at and go from there.

It looks like we have a full league.
-
I've been inviting the people in the people seeking leagues page. Certainly ask around. I'd much much rather have 12.

Same both those times work. Looks like we need two more teams or are we sticking with 10? I can ask around or post on ottoneu pages
-
I'm good with splitting the draft into two days, Friday/Saturday 8 PM sounds fine.
-
I can do 7 pm Central and beyond most days.

That is what I was thinking as well.
-
I'm certainly open to taking some suggestions from people. Likely we can discuss in the draft room, as everyone will be there.

That's fine. We can do Friday and Saturday night. We can talk about how we want to split that up. I am on Eastern time and there might be others. I just don't think anyone should have to stay up until 3 or 4 in the morning. Thanks for understanding.
-
I would be okay with splitting it into Friday and Saturday night, both at 8pm or so. It was designed late, so we could put our kids to bed, etc. first. At 5pm ET, I'm still at work (mountain time here).

If we start the draft at 8Pm on Friday and it takes at least 7 hours that takes me until 3am or later. I suggest we split in up into 2 days or start it at 5Pm.
-
I think it was the 12th or so we set it up. The other commish is my cousin and I know he has his kids solo on weekend daytime as his wife works those days. That’s why we set it up later Friday.

I have done several before. Some have been split into two days. I would prefer doing them on the weekends during the day. Lets see when we get a full league we seem to be filling up well so far.You started on March 12th, Is that right?
-
Agreed. Everyone, just be prepared if you've not done a fresh Ottoneu draft before - I did one last night (first ever) and it was about 7 hours.
