Saturday Feb. 24th would probably be our vote...i like drafting earlier and not waiting until March.
-
Everyone x BaldBlack. Sun eves then Sat eves are best. Feb 24/25 and Mar 17/18 look like the two best weekends. Just need to set it - sooner than later - and decide on any time/player limit. My pref is - earlier draft and really cap it so we can still trade/FAAB during spring training. The later the draft imo the less the trading afterwards and the more all-or-nothing the draft is
-
Did everybody fill out draft survey?

could we allow skipping of nominations (technically) but still (maybe manually) have that 'skip' count for a draft time/player cap? that would eliminate the need to stop/fix the draft while also allowing an owner to skip rather than force them to chum/bait.
-
the draft software isnt user friendly enough to always have someone to be ready to nominate. it doesnt look like we have a lot of options tho
-
ottoneu support is recommending the "Require Nomination" setting, which locks someone out of the draft if they do not nominate someone. We've had problems with this in the past because accidents happen and it is a quick clock. But it might be the only way to prevent the skipping of nominations.
-
re the draft - how about if we see how many roster slots are open leaguewide after keeper drop - and then set the draft at say 80% (or something) of that number of players. So if there are 160 slots, then the draft time will be capped at first 128 players nominated. That would shorten the draft, change the bait strategy and allow for different FAAB/trade strategies (re cap/slots) post-draft

Problem with the draft is you can just nominate players and not bid on them, so you’re able to just throw bait out until most are done. Also I’m still upset I drafted Vlad Guerrero Sr last year, wtf lol

welcome ryan - yeah I also agree with time limit (or maybe #players limit) for auction. The regular FAAB auction process to fill rosters works very well once we get to the <$10 type players and those are the ones where the auction drags on and on

Hey Guys!
I'm super stoked to be a part of this league. I have been playing fantasy baseball for over 20 years but this will be my first shot at OTTONEU and I'm very excited. I can't wait to get things going. It is apparent that my roster does need some shaking up so consider everyone OTB! Haha.

Welcome Ryan!
-
Ladies and Gents - we have a new owner for Drunk Canucks! Please welcome Ryan, who based on his username is still coping with his Steelers loss from Saturday. I imagine he will be itching to make some trades in the next two weeks.
AoF - I will look into the draft situation, I agree it has had some bogus finishes in the past.
-
*poll not pool.
-
I just completed the Google pool--sorry for the delay. As long as the draft is Sunday evening, I can make the Feb. 25th date. Also, is it at all possible to think about putting an end time to the draft? I am not a huge fan of the "last man standing" conclusion the draft has had in the past.
-
My own pref would be Feb 25 (sorry 25th is the Sunday not 28th) - cuz much later and P injuries will start randomly screwing with teams and $cap/available. Any other thoughts?
-
ok - got 8 votes - need Bald Fielding Rogue Canuck - so far looks like Sun Feb 28 eve or Sun Mar 18 eve are best
-
Our Trade Offer Phone Lines are OPEN!!!
-
folks - need those who haven't voted their draft prefs to do so - https://goo.gl/forms/bVygvkeuvYReDP5k2

For some reason, if the previous link doesn't work or looks screwy, try this link to the auction/draft survey - https://goo.gl/forms/bVygvkeuvYReDP5k2
-
Here's (hopefully) the link to the auction survey - vote early and not often https://goo.gl/forms/8bLkCLRprvwLZRmk1
-
But seriously - I don't expect anything to change. Kenta we should start circulating that draft timing google doc thing sooner rather than later (thank you for doing that). I will start putting feelers out for a new owner, if you know anyone let me know
-
I am the best commish! My veto button is much bigger than my predecessors (whom I will not name out of respect).
-
welcome commish
-
Haha I’m sure most in this league will...i almost want you to win if that is what you will spend your winnings on but you’ll have to settle for 2nd(and maybe get a toe ring?)...behind us.
-
I disagree with every word of that message, but woohoo... Baseball! If I win this year, which seems likely, I'm def buying a gold pinky ring with a-rod's gorgeous mug carved into it.
-
Snicklefritz as Commish is better than Hillary or Bernie in the White House but that’s about it. Lol. Welcome Commish!
-
Snickle tickle is officially the new commish! I made us a FB group since communication on here is the jeets. https://www.facebook.com/groups/ottoneu366.centaurs/
-
Snicklefritz would be an awful Commish :-)
-
I'm happy to support (with votes and effort) Kenta as commissioner. Snicklefritz and I have exchanged messages about the possibility of him taking on the role as well. Whoever takes the role on my hope is that they do it with the humor and light touch that Spencer applied.
-
Somebody will jump on Drunk Canucks team. It’s pretty good.
-
yeah - i can do the draft but we really do need the owners and I can't do that
-
Jeff -- you don't mind spearheading the draft? I'm thinking of abandoning the teams and hoping we get a new owner off the waiver wire.

re commish stuff - I can do the survey/draft time stuff like past - but can't find replacement owners
