Thanks for the explanation. (though, you could have done way better than Castellanos and Taj is likely coming back this week)

Well I'm currently getting way less production from my hitters than my pitchers. Taj hasn't thrown a pitch this year and has contributed zero points thus far. If my pitchers are already outscoring my hitters, my team needs a bat more than another SP especially with Steele coming back soon and I believe Castellanos's track record points toward a turn around. For an SP I don't need and $2, I took the flyer. That was my rationale.

if anyone has a Yahoo fantasy account and wants to take over a Dynasty team in there, it's $50 and a decent team. I commish that league as well. 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...

Saguaros is correct. So I'm not going to over-police that situation, as the system will shut you down & make you make cuts in order to be able to set your lineup, make trades, accept trades, &, well, be functional!
I'm currently out of compliance but I had pre-set my lineup for 3/20 in case I went over; but, I'm still hopeful my IL guys go IL to help me cut down.
I will be back in compliance before the first full slate of games -- so I don't lose the

In a continuing league, cap is enforced by the system after the roster freeze deadline on Jan. 31. In a new league like this the cap starts in place. If you go over, the system will not allow you to bid on players or make/accept trade offers until you rectify the situation.

Hey, just wondering... I know it's still way early... but just so we all know... what date does our roster / cap need to comply with the rules? Is it March 20th or earlier? Just want to be sure we are all on the same page.
-
Aqua, you could proceed with undoing the cut by applying a $1 penalty to me.
Indeed, I made the action very quickly on my phone while being inattentive. It's my first year on Ottoneu, and I'm learning the basics. I can confirm that the lesson has been learned for this aspect.
-
but, perhaps the beautiful part of doing it in here is I'd add Chris Taylor back and he'd cost $2 instead of $1. But, if he's cut again, Presidente would get that $1 back

That's it exactly. the system requires a confirmation. it's a rare situation. But having everyone with a free cut doesn't work well either.
All my leagues have a penalty (which is usually due to inattention, doing something too fast).
And, because it requires time for the commish and could have been avoided, I've standardized the assessment of penalties and tend to get one per every one or two leagues per season (so it's not a lot).
The AquaSox on
February 27, 2024 11:23 PM

I don’t think extra penalties are a good idea. If you as commish want to fix a random mistake that is fine. It happens very rarely. The Otto system asks for a confirmation and that extra step is quite reliable.

Hey all, if you mistakenly cut someone, I'm happy to reinstate that player but the cost is $1. I have penalties in all my leagues for mistaken cuts. So just let me know if a mistake happens (before the player clears waivers) and that you accept the penalty and presto, I'll make it happen

The only important lineup spots are the active hitters and pitchers. Anybody else can be in any slot and it makes no difference. The bench, minors, and IL slots are purely for your own convenience to keep track of players. Use them as you will with no penalty.

Hey question for everyone. I'm new to Ottoneu format and I was wondering if there really any difference between my bench and minors roster spots? It appears I can place anyone in the minors or is that just because the season hasn't started? I'm basically just wondering if say Tatis Jr has a day off can I move him to a minor roster slot for a day or will that trigger some sort of penalty?

Hi, I just realized that I dropped the wrong player. I was supposed to drop a player to accept the trade with Emy Awards since I had 41 players. I did it quickly on my phone and I just realized that I dropped C. Taylor instead of D. Jansen. Can we fix the mistake? Thank you.

Hopefully everyone is in this for the long haul and we stay together and stay competitive (even if our teams go on a losing streak). For me, it's the journey, not the end result, so I'm just enjoy the ride (winning is icing)

But, if it continues into the season, being locked is going to cause you problems in trying to win matchups, stay competitive while affecting the overall competitive balance of the league.
For managers that aren't setting lineups, I'll send reminders to them privately and to the group publicly before finally, and reluctantly replacing a manager (last resort). Not setting a lineup for a day or here and there isn't going to ever get me riled up....but not setting for a week (or two

Hey everyone, please note that Commissioners approach this next issue differently. My approach is this (and its consistent across my yahoo leagues): If you go over budget or roster size, you'll not be able to propose trades or set your lineup until you come into compliance. So if you're temporarily out of compliance, like now, tomorrow, next week, I'm not worried. Guys will go on the IL, guys will get waived, things happen.

Hi everyone, we're set to draft tonight!!! We'll pause at about 5:50pm PT (for 10 minutes so I can get to a soccer practice) and then around 7:10pm (again for 10) so I can get back home. Other than that we'll try to power through to 8:15pm PT/11:15pm ET (if you Easter Coasters can make it that long). Then we'd stop and resume Saturday at 10am ET/1pm PT

well, we start at 4:30/7:30. we can take a break roughly every 1.5 hours. I know I have to transition to soccer practice for a 5:50-7:15 PT practice (just getting my kid there and then I can resume drafting). so I'll try and pause for up to 10 mins to get me to practice at 5:50PT/850 Ethen we'll pause again at around 7:05pt/10:05ET to get me back home. And we'll just see how far everyone can go after that? maybe just til 8pm PT/11pm ET? maybe you east coasters can last til 11:30/midnight....
