• Thanks, Britton!

  Concrete Dildos on February 23, 2025 2:35 PM

• Shout out to Russell! Thank you for running all this!

  Butterscotch on February 22, 2025 11:34 AM

• Ok, everybody. It looks like we're fully ported over and up and running. I started a free agent auction to test it out. Let me know if anything looks wrong.

  Concrete Dildos on February 21, 2025 11:48 PM

• They’ve both told me they’re done. I’ll transfer everything over tonight.

  Concrete Dildos on February 21, 2025 9:02 PM

• Last two teams are you going to bid?

  Bayside on February 21, 2025 8:59 PM

• I’m halfway thru a 4 hr 50 that is on pace to take 24-28 days depending on when you make the estimate

  Did You See Brian's Hat on February 21, 2025 9:48 AM

• Only two teams left so it’s pretty hands off until they finish.

  Bayside on February 20, 2025 10:27 PM

• I increased nominations and shortened from 6hr to 4 hrs so the final teams can finish up quicker. We'll stop when there are no more active auctions.

  Concrete Dildos on February 20, 2025 1:27 PM

• I’ve just been busy at work (including last weekend) and having this auction, two nfbc DCs and a FYPD going has been crazy. One person in the FYPD was complaining about how slow the draft was going with our 8 hr clock, lol.

  zitor0123 on February 20, 2025 9:34 AM

• Just curious, never done a slow draft in Ottoneu.

  Hodgepodge Powered by Aaron Judge on February 20, 2025 9:29 AM

• In a rush?

  zitor0123 on February 20, 2025 9:28 AM

• How long are we going to let this slow draft go?

  Hodgepodge Powered by Aaron Judge on February 20, 2025 9:23 AM

• I’m a little heavy on the hitting side if someone is looking for MI/OF

  Bayside on February 19, 2025 4:46 AM

• Yes. I have it set to pause from 12 ET to 9 ET

  Concrete Dildos on February 16, 2025 4:33 PM

• This is my first time with this format, does the draft pause overnight?

  Hodgepodge Powered by Aaron Judge on February 16, 2025 4:21 PM

• We're up an running in the new draft. Hop in and start bidding

  Concrete Dildos on February 16, 2025 3:34 PM

• Ladies and Gents. I'm sorry but to fix the problem I had to create a new league. Sucks, but good to catch when we did and fix before auctions started finishing. Join here:https://www.couchmanagers.com/auctions/?auction_id=1075
  
  Same password (Drebin). We'll get started once we get this new one filled. Again, sorry!

  Concrete Dildos on February 15, 2025 8:06 PM

• Hey, everyone. I paused the draft because there’s an issue with the roster settings I need to fix. I will probably have to restart the draft and it’s better to do now when no auctions have completed. I’m sorry and I know this is really annoying. Stay tuned. We’ll kick things back off within the next couple of hours when I can get in front of a computer.

  Concrete Dildos on February 15, 2025 6:06 PM

• We are live! We'll start out slow with three nominations each. It's a six hour clock with 2 hour extension for bids. I'll increase nominations by 1 every two days. We can discuss cutting the time down after a few days too.
  
  I kicked things off with Matt Olson, CJ Abrams, and Pete Alonso. Happy bidding!
  
  Russell

  Concrete Dildos on February 15, 2025 11:33 AM

• Ok, everybody. Everybody's in. I'll get all the keeper info uploaded to Couch Managers and we'll get started today! Like last year, we'll start out slow with low nominations and longer auction times, then we'll ramp up every couple of days. I'll send another message when we're all ready.

  Concrete Dildos on February 15, 2025 8:28 AM

• Waiting on Bayside

  Concrete Dildos on February 15, 2025 1:23 AM

• Who's our one hold out? Might as well get started here

  Exit 9 on February 14, 2025 6:56 PM

• Hey, everybody. I created the draft on Couch Managers. Once everyone joins I can import the rosters/keepers. I'm planning to get us started on Feb. 20, but once everyone joins we can get started sooner if you want. Here's the link (Password: Drebin): https://www.couchmanagers.com/auctions/?auction_id=1055

  Concrete Dildos on February 11, 2025 2:43 PM

• When will slow auction start?

  Did You See Brian's Hat on February 3, 2025 9:48 AM

• We have three teams that still need to pay/renew before Jan 31. Get on it!
  
  We also have five teams needing to make cuts before Jan 31. Get on it!

  Concrete Dildos on January 28, 2025 12:15 AM

• Got it. Thanks!

  Marty Bergen's Axe on January 16, 2025 7:53 PM

• It should be on your "dashboard" all the way to the right of the league name

  Ted . . . ! Why? on January 16, 2025 5:51 PM

• How do I renew? Can't figure that part out.

  Marty Bergen's Axe on January 16, 2025 5:48 PM

• To get under $400, you can cut players or you can wheel and deal. Trade your higher priced players for less expensive keepers. The Roster Organizer is great for this if you aren't using it yet.

  Concrete Dildos on January 16, 2025 12:28 PM

• Hey, everybody. 3 orders of business:
  
  1. We need everyone to renew before Jan 31. You'll get booted from the league if you don't and I won't be able to help.
  
  2. Everyone needs to make cuts by Jan 31. You need to get under $400 and you need at least $1 to spend for every open roster spot you have. (e.g. You keep 33 players, you need to be under $393).
  
  3. I'm thinking we start the draft on Monday, Feb. 20. We'll do a slow auction again, so we can take our tim

  Concrete Dildos on January 16, 2025 12:26 PM

• Sooner the better. Late February?

  Hodgepodge Powered by Aaron Judge on January 16, 2025 12:25 PM

• Should we schedule the draft?

  Ted . . . ! Why? on January 16, 2025 9:20 AM

• No. Technically it’s a disadvantage because you couldn’t trade them.

  Bayside on December 4, 2024 10:33 PM

• There's no reason to drop a player until the keeper deadline, right?

  Ted . . . ! Why? on December 4, 2024 10:11 PM

• Thank you! I figured out the right way to do it.

  zitor0123 on November 24, 2024 10:52 AM

• I think I re-added them all. Let me know if I missed one.

  Concrete Dildos on November 24, 2024 9:41 AM

• Cut Players - I didn’t mean to cut those players. Thought I was using the roster organizer tool.

  zitor0123 on November 24, 2024 9:12 AM

• Make an offer on Butler if you want him.

  Bayside on November 15, 2024 11:25 AM

• Great job with arbitration, everyone. We had 100% participation. Make sure you check the damage and start thinking about who to keep/trade/cut. The keeper deadline date is January 31. Use your Roster Organizer to plan. Let's heat this stove up!

  Concrete Dildos on November 15, 2024 10:37 AM

• Govier one+ day left.

  Bayside on November 13, 2024 1:26 PM

• Two days left for arbitration!

  Bayside on November 12, 2024 6:23 PM

• All right, everyone. We've got a new owner for Conformity. Welcome! We're full again and ready to roll. If you're one of the last arbitration holdouts, just make sure you do it before the deadline. Then let's have a crazy trading offseason.

  Concrete Dildos on November 4, 2024 4:41 PM

• Thanks Russ. Looking forward to hemming and hawing over every two-bit trade offer in yet another league

  Did You See Brian's Hat on November 1, 2024 11:55 AM

• Welcome, Tony! I know Tony and he'll be a great addition to Pallazzoneu.
  
  One team to claim left. Clock's ticking on asking your friends to claim it! Let's get this thing filled back up and complete arbitration, everyone!

  Concrete Dildos on November 1, 2024 11:08 AM

• Placeholder. We'll figure that all out down the road. I thought the slow auction was kind of fun, but since the auction wont take as long this time we can find a date. I'm cool with whatever. We can figure it out in a couple of months.

  Concrete Dildos on October 18, 2024 3:13 PM

• Is that draft day the real day or just a placeholder?

  Ted . . . ! Why? on October 18, 2024 2:38 PM

• That team definitely has some fat (Not Pfaat!) to trim, but it has some really nice pieces to build on. I'll find somebody. Will start in the discord.

  Concrete Dildos on October 17, 2024 9:53 AM

• Holy crap. That team hasn't logged in since April 15. I had no idea. What a waste. Did something happen to that guy? I'll mark the team abandoned and start working on a replacement.
