I don't know enough to have an opinion about going forward. How much does that mess up the league?
-
I'd prefer finishing it today but wouldn't fight rescheduling either. Would like to send a shout out to the commish however, he's been doing quite a bit of working the lines to get someone in here. Much appreciated.
-
That's my release for CONE. Whatever is best for league.
-
Ugh! $#@!? Not cool
-
We could postpone the auction until this is resolved, I’d be in favor of that.
-
Because the team is expired, we can't bring in a temporary owner. We'll proceed with the auction. Later, we'll have the discussion about a custom deadline to avoid this in the future.
-
Cone flaked out. The team is up for grabs. If we can't get a new owner, I'm going to try to find someone to make cuts and proxy for the auction from slack.
-
Works for me
-
Should be. Last year's started at 2:06 and the last guy went at 4:32.
-
2pm central / 3pm eastern will work for me. Should be done by 6ish eastern correct?
-
I asked on the community site. A pending trade is expected to go through, and is expected to update roster/salary information, but we'd be the guinea pigs if someone made a trade tomorrow afternoon.
-
Re: pending trades, that's a good point, and everyone should consider themselves duly warned. Any trades made after 3est tomorrow won't process before the auction.
-
Yes, sorry. 3pm, eastern
-
Ok be glad to get the draft over with.

Sorry meant 3PM EST
-
1) To confirm - 3PM PST, correct? 2) We probably need to be a bit careful on any last minute trades that would complete after 3PM on Saturday as they would change roster counts and budgets in the middle (or immediately after) the draft.
-
I just received a couple messages saying they can make Saturday at 3 work. I'm scheduling it. Hopefully everyone else is still on board!
-
So, the 1st isn't coming together. I'll work on making another day happen over the weekend. Just for the record, if there isn't a unanimous day, the tiebreaker will be who's signing up for the most days. If there are days you could make that you haven't signed up for, please go edit the calendar.
-
Yeah noms are vital and viral. In practice, yeah you are allowed to miss a few, but if it is a pattern...I'll stare with evil eyes and make a stupid remark about your team!
-
There is the expectation that you nominate on your turn. There's a commissioner option to turn on that if you miss your nomination, you're locked out of the draft. In my opinion, for this league, that's too punitive. Phones ring, babies cry, significant others distract, bathroom runs are necessary, minds wander. However, in the mid- too late-auction, where skipping noms can be valuable (But low rent, in my opinion) gamesmanship, there will be less leeway.
-
Depending on how deep cuts are, and people's bidding habits, I'd say 3ish hours.
-
How long does a draft normally take?
-
I cannot do the 8th or 9th due to work, will be in meetings all weekend.
-
Last year we did Feb 24th at 14:00 PM EST.
-
I remember 3pm on a weekend was settled on last season because we have multiple disparate home time zones. Could some of the older owners chime in to verify my memory?
-
only date in Feb that I can't make is the 8th

Sorry didn't fully read your message looking for late...so guess morning idea won't work
-
I'm probably going to be having a new kid here in next 10 days or so, so selfishly this weekend would be best if we can make it work to get it out of way for me. How about early in the day. Coffee and ottoneu drafr
-
What time are you thinking? I have to leave for work at 5pm central / 6pm eastern. Any way to do the 23rd date which got the 2nd most votes if it's okay for everyone.
-
If we were to have the auction later on February 1st (this Saturday) would everybody be able to make a later time? If someone couldn't do a later time, let me know, and we'll work on a different date.
-
So, there is no unanimous vote. Also, we had two non votes. The 2/1 had 8 votes and 2/23 had 7 votes. Would any of the owners that voted no on those dates be able to make it if we moved the time an hour or two in either direction?
-
How are we doing on the auction date/time? Would be great to know this soon, since I have to fill out doodles for other leagues too.
-
I want to announce this, in case it affects done of your end of rosters keep/cut decisions. At the auction, we won't have a set limit on rounds or anything like that. We'll keep going until everyone is finished.
-
I know I have some messages/trade offers sitting there, and I apologize for not getting to those. As a player, I'll get back soon.
As a commish, I'd like to thank everyone who voted, and would ask everyone else to try to get to it this week.
-
Filled out the poll.
-
Completed my poll dates
-
Everyone, please go to the poll and vote for every day you could attend. Ideally, we'll find a date that all of us can attend.

Congrats man! No problem at all.
-
Hey, all. I know I promised a survey over the weekend. My newborn baby daughter had other ideas. I will get it up by next week!
-
What is LeagueSafe? I've heard about the 5MilB system on top of Ottoneu - time consuming?
-
Let me know if you have any questions or interest in joining. Thanks.

Hello all. I'm commissioner in league 606 & we are recruiting a new owner. It is a $20 Ottoneu Fangraph pts league with an additional $100 buy-in to LeagueSafe. Entering its 6th yr. Also has 5MiLB prospect roster system. 3 owners left at the end of last season so we are going to have a snake dispersal draft to re-allocate their teams. Two spots are filled already. Link to the league: https://ottoneu.fangraphs.com/606/home. Available rosters: Saratoga Grays, Urban Achievers, Knoblankiel Y

Good to go! Trade block is updated and open to all proposals.
-
Hi All -- just claimed this team, waiting on confirmation from commish that no one else laid claim. If good to go I'll update the trade block and get going quickly. Feel free to shoot over ideas for trades in proposals or notes if you see potential for a deal.
-
Shouldn’t take long to fill his team. He has a pretty solid roster and is below the cap.
-
Captain Bob will be leaving us. It sounds like he has a lot of exciting stuff going on, and needs to cut back on ottoneu. Best of luck to him, so we'll need to find one more owner.
-
It's time to start thinking about the auction! Looking over the comments last season, we agreed on a 3pm est start time on a weekend day in February. If 3pm on a weekend is absolutely not doable for somebody, speak up, we'll look for a different time. I'll be putting up a poll over the weekend to vote on the day.
-
Could definitely use some OF or SP. Madrigal and Beer very available in any deal.
