Welcome aboard! You are allowed to make arb allocations. Please post them here in the next 48 hours and I will adjust the salaries manually. Happy to have you so we can proceed with an off-season full of active owners.

The commish (Zeezils) will allow you to assign arbitration dollars. Welcome to the league, we’re glad to be back up to a full compliment of owners so we can carry on with offseason business!
-
Just claimed Orange whips, I see he didn't do his arb, too late now I guess. Happy to join your league
-
Despite my reminders, Three Orange Whips failed to participate in arbitration (or respond to messages), which is crucial to league parity. So, he has been removed from the league. Which means we will be searching for a new owner. I would still like to have that team allocate arb dollars, so more on that later. Trading is open!

Ok everyone, arbitration is now open through Nov 14. Each team must allocate every arb dollar. Missing arbitration is grounds for removal from the league. Changes can be made to your allocations any time before the deadline.

Thanks for the welcome message! Excited to be a part of the league.

Welcome to the new owners! It’s nice to see those spots getting filled so early in the offseason.

Hey everyone! I just claimed Never Again and my friend is claiming Columbus Baby Bears. We play in a 5x5 league and are interested in trying out 4x4. Look forward to meeting you all!

Hi everyone, I just claimed Arlen Longhorns. I'm really excited to be in this league and look forward to the season!
-
Hey everyone, just checking in about the start of the off-season. As you've just been notified, we have three owners not returning for next season and so will need some new ones. If you know of anyone, please send them our way! Also, arbitration starts next week - more details to follow then.

Sounds good. If anyone wants to vote against the trade, send me a message. Unless there are 6 vetoes, I'll process it at noon on Tuesday.

He folks sorry for the delays. Would y’all be willing to give me until 23:59 on Monday MAR03?
-
Still waiting on Arlen Longhorns to make penalty-free cuts as a new owner. He has until the end of this weekend to make those cuts.

Alrighty sounds good. I've got the draft on my calendar!
-
Welcome! You get one round of penalty-free cuts as the new owner. Try to make those relatively soon so everyone has a complete list of free agents for auction. Two other things: our auction is set for Sunday 3/17 at 6 pm Eastern and our league allows trades between now and the auction.

Howdy guys, just claimed. Been playing off and on and trying to get back into Ottoneu seriously this year (as serious as you can with two little kids). Pleased to meet y'all and looking forward to it. Let me know if there's anything I need to know or if I do anything that's considered out-of-bounds. GLHF!
-
The auction draft has been set for Sunday, March 17 at 6 pm Eastern! Also, looks like the Arlen Longhorns didn't pay their fees, so we are looking for an owner to take over. Tell your friends...

Still awaiting responses from four teams to schedule the auction: Butch Bando, Balls in Play, Arlen Longhorns, and Three Orange Whips. Please fill out the survey by the end of the weekend!

Attention owners: I sent an email this morning about scheduling the free agent auction. It was pointed out to me that the MLB season begins on March 20 with the series in Seoul, so we must have the auction completed by then. I have updated the survey to push the dates forward a bit to reflect this. If you already submitted a response, I had to delete it, so please re-submit. Sorry for the inconvenience!

Final reminder: the keeper deadline is in a little over 3 hours!
Zeezils on

Reminder to everyone that the keeper deadline is one week from today! By midnight (EST) on the 31st, your roster must be under the salary cap (with at least $1 in remaining budget for every open roster spot). Cuts made after next Wednesday will entail a penalty that carries through the 2024 season. So, get your rosters in order (and make trades). Also, if you haven't already, please pay to renew your team by that date as well (we have three unpaid teams).

Everyone made arb allocations, so we move on to the next phase of the offseason: making cut/keep decisions. That deadline is January 31. After that date, the $400 salary cap is back in force, your roster must be valid, and future cuts are subject to cap penalties. Trading is open, so now is the time to wheel and deal!

Tonight is the deadline for locking in your arbitration allocations. Looks like everyone has made theirs except the Baby Bears. Remember that you can alter your choices until the deadline.

Thanks Zeezils. Even though I’m also not so optimistic, I am instead Balls In Play —when it’s not hockey season.

Hey everyone. As you may have seen, we have a new owner of Not So Optimistic, so welcome! I assume that everyone else is planning to be back for the 2024 season. As arbitration is now open, we officially begin the Ottoneu offseason. Because arbitration is so important to league parity and competitiveness, failure to allocate results in automatic ejection from the league. It is open through Nov 14 and you can always change your allocations until the deadline. Hoping for a fun offseason!

Congrats to the Argyle Sox for winning their first championship! It was really well earned: you worked the waiver wire and came within one game of maxing out every single position. I did my best to make it close in September but came up short. Well done!
