• It looks fine. It was probably formatting from the previous version that I did not reset. Thanks!

• I filled in my times, but I had to unmerge some cells in the second row. I hope that didn't screw anything up.

  Candy Apple Greys on March 21, 2022 11:56 PM

• No problem! I am glad the link worked the second time! Let's see if this helps get this figured out.

  RoundTrippers on March 21, 2022 11:42 PM

• Great idea, Roundtrippers. I just filled out which days I am available and what times. Would be great to land on a day and time soon.

  Fomorians on March 21, 2022 11:39 PM

• It looks like you may have to cut and paste the link in my previous message.

  RoundTrippers on March 21, 2022 11:05 PM

• We used a shared google doc in a league I was in a few years ago. I updated it for our league.
  Hopefully this link will work: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Jw3d_WvF159fCHFtmrQJIXYLcnEx_VmQ7ZNTzKIWeJU/edit?usp=sharing

• can we do a vote somewhere lol. hard to get 12 people together at once and hard to follow all the different dates flying around

  Colter's Wall on March 21, 2022 12:29 PM

• I think we are at a point where we might need to start talking April 5th or 6th.

  Chico's Bail Bonds Bears on March 21, 2022 11:50 AM

• My understanding is that CouchManagers takes more work on the part of the commisioner(s), even with the import/export features from Ottoneu to CoachManagers. As well, 3 hours is too short a bidding time. I sleep. And up to 48 players at once? When I've looked at CouchManagers, I see 8 hour bidding times, 1 player per team at a time and weeks long drafts. Slow drafting is what it's designed for.

  Candy Apple Greys on March 21, 2022 11:23 AM

• If you go to couchmanagers.com you can "watch" live drafts for other leagues to get a feel for it. Look under the "Auction Draft" tab at the bottom of that part of the page there is a list of live/current drafts. It is pretty easy to figure out once we got started.

  Fomorians on March 21, 2022 10:22 AM

• Never done one of those. Going to need a tutorial on it.

  Chico's Bail Bonds Bears on March 21, 2022 9:20 AM

• If someone knows how to use it, I say we go ahead and do it. I've only done one slow auction and loved it, but don't know how to set it up with an existing league.

  Fomorians on March 21, 2022 9:19 AM

• Yes, essentially it is the same as a normal auction. Each team can nominate say 2-4 players at a time. We then have 6 hours to bid on any/all players nominated. Once the 6 hour clock gets under 3 hours each time a new bid is placed on a player the clock resets to 3 hours. It may sound like it will take forever (it will with the first few players), but it picks up steam real fast. The software is clunky, but what draft site isn't lol.

  Fomorians on March 21, 2022 9:18 AM

• I’ll be traveling all day on the 26th until 8 pm Et. Would be okay with a slow auction

  Dusty Creek Renegades on March 21, 2022 9:08 AM

• Ive never done a slow auction before, are the mechanics the same as a regular auction just with a long ass time?

  Where did Tsutsugo? on March 21, 2022 8:52 AM

• Great Idea! Let's do it!

  Count Me Out on March 21, 2022 8:29 AM

• I just did one for another Otto league and it only took a week to finish a start-up league. We would have far less players to auction off. We could do a 6 hour clock with a 3 hour reset and could finish in the span of a few days hopefully.

  Fomorians on March 21, 2022 12:20 AM

• What if we did a slow auction on CouchManagers? That would solve most of our problems I believe.

  Fomorians on March 21, 2022 12:19 AM

• I can do the 26th, but only if we start at 9:00 pm or later. I'm also available 3/22 and 3/24 at 8:00 pm or later.

  Baby Sharks on March 20, 2022 7:56 PM

• I can do the 26th, but would prefer earlier in the day. 12 EST would work.

  Fomorians on March 20, 2022 6:19 PM

• I can do the 26th, but still prefer late evenings. If not, I can make 12 EST work.

  The Price is Wright on March 20, 2022 3:43 PM

• Seems we can possibly do early on the 26th looks like. Sadly we might not find a spot that works for all 12, but hoping to maximize participation. 12 EST?

  Napalm Bombs on March 20, 2022 12:53 PM

• 26th is great

  Count Me Out on March 20, 2022 11:23 AM

• Morning of the 26th (or any time on the 26th) is fine with me.

  RoundTrippers on March 20, 2022 11:07 AM

• 1pm eastern on 26th is good for me

  Chico's Bail Bonds Bears on March 20, 2022 10:55 AM

• I can do the 26th if it starts before 1 PM EDT or after 8 PM EDT.

  Candy Apple Greys on March 20, 2022 10:53 AM

• I already have a draft tonight - sorry. Morning/afternoon is fine with me on the 26th.

  Chico's Bail Bonds Bears on March 20, 2022 10:44 AM

• I could do tonight.

  Fomorians on March 20, 2022 10:37 AM

• What about tonight?

  Count Me Out on March 20, 2022 10:31 AM

• I have a dinner for work that night. Would have to be later in the evening. If the 26th is the best option then I can make it work. Could we maybe do the morning of the 26th since it is a Saturday?

  Fomorians on March 20, 2022 10:26 AM

• 23rd?

  Chico's Bail Bonds Bears on March 20, 2022 10:18 AM

• Baby Sharks' cuts have been completed- I think we are ready to go!

  Count Me Out on March 20, 2022 10:09 AM

• I can NOT do the 24th. Sorry.

  The Price is Wright on March 20, 2022 9:59 AM

• My cuts are in now. I had more time this morning than I expected.

  RoundTrippers on March 20, 2022 8:44 AM

• I will have my cuts by sometime this evening.

  RoundTrippers on March 20, 2022 7:36 AM

• I thought yesterday that I could do the 25th, but I can't sorry. I could do the evening of the 24th or anytime on the 26th.

  RoundTrippers on March 20, 2022 7:35 AM

• I could do the 24th.

  Baby Sharks on March 19, 2022 11:22 PM

• Well Bat's cuts just made the draft a whole lot more interesting. $232 and 30 spots. Can't wait to see what Trips and Shark do for their cuts.

  Chico's Bail Bonds Bears on March 19, 2022 10:09 PM

• I can make anytime on the night of the 25th work

  Schrödinger's Bats on March 19, 2022 10:00 PM

• I would prefer the 25th just so I am not up late the night before we go to the hospital for the baby. I know a couple of guys just asked for the 26th, but would y'all be willing to flex to the 25th?

  Fomorians on March 19, 2022 9:44 PM

• 26th at 9:00 pm eastern good here.

  Chico's Bail Bonds Bears on March 19, 2022 9:08 PM

• Could we do the 26th at 9:00 pm Eastern?

  Baby Sharks on March 19, 2022 9:02 PM

• either day is fine

  Count Me Out on March 19, 2022 7:00 PM

• Good with either day and time

  Colter's Wall on March 19, 2022 4:57 PM

• 25th or 26th is good for me. After 8:30pm preferred EDT. Thanks.

  The Price is Wright on March 19, 2022 4:55 PM

• Thanks everyone for weighing in quickly (and Bats for picking up that last open team). Looks like we’re down to either 25 or 26 in the evening where most owners can make it

  Napalm Bombs on March 19, 2022 4:14 PM

• Welcome to the league Bats.

  Chico's Bail Bonds Bears on March 19, 2022 2:50 PM

• Welcome to the league Schrodinger's Bats! We will need a list of players you want to cut before the draft.

  Count Me Out on March 19, 2022 1:22 PM

• Hey all - just claimed Bleacher Creatures, so hopefully this league is full now. For the draft, I can do April 3rd if it is after 8pm EDT, but can also be flexible that previous week (or this week) if we want to get it in before Team Name Pending gets a lot busier. Congrats!
