League Message Board

Would anyone be interested in standing in as a proxy for a team in another of my leagues? Draft is Monday March 24, 8-10pm edt. The team has $190 free cap and 19 of 40 players. Nice team with a newbie manager who can’t make the draft and would like a little help. Let me know. Thanks for considering.
-
Hi all, I won’t be able to make the draft tonight, but I’m comfortable filling my roster post draft
-
Let’s stick with the 28th, the rest of the options are worse. I can help find a substitute drafter on the ottoneu Slack if anyone needs it

We should find a time before those games. We have over a month of days to find an hour of time to draft. Unfair to the teams that have players, and more importantly pitchers, that are playing in those two games. This is coming from someone that doesn't really have people in those game

My only input on this is that it's better to not have a team at the auction and use a proxy from the Ottoneu message boards than to not count points for the Japan series.
-
It sounds like there is a team unavailable the 28th. Can everyone take one more look at the Doodle poll and make sure there aren't any other days you could make work to draft? Or are there other times of the day on some of those days you could make work? Would be great if we can get everyone available. Otherwise to get everyone we might need to push later in March after that opening series (in which case points wouldn't count for those few games)

I have it at 8pm EST. I've heard from one manager that it would be hard to do later than that. I'd be ok going earlier than that if everyone prefers, though that may be hard for some West Coast folks

Works for me. What's the start time EST/PST?
-
Ok scratch that, sounds like Feb 28th is actually the best bet. If that can’t work for anyone let me know asap!

As of now with most of the league responding to the pool, it looks like March 5th is probably our best bet. If anyone can't possibly make that work, please let me know ASAP.

In addition, I put 8pm EST as the default but if you are generally available earlier in the day please let me know (I seem to remember last year a little earlier in the day worked best for the draft). As an example, I’m on the west coast, but with two kids under three it’d almost be easier to take a few hours off work and draft in the afternoon west coast time!

Hey everyone, I’ve put together a Doodle poll to try to gather availability to schedule the draft. Please be as flexible as possible as it’s really difficult to line up 12 schedules all over the globe!

Hey all. I'm Blake (manager of wRC Digs the Long Ball). I've been playing Ottoneu since 2019. I know I'm a little late claiming this team, but I'm looking forward to the season! See you all at the auction.

Welcome to the league new Long Ball team! Glad we are back to full, I’ll try to get a draft availability poll out sooner than later.

Reminder, TODAY is the final day to make cuts to get your roster legal and ready for the auction! Deadline is midnight EST, so that's 9pm for those of us on the West Coast. Looks like almost the entire league has renewed already (thanks!), but if you are waiting until the last minute please do so today as well.

Hi everyone, I am planning on scaling down my Ottoneu team commitment for next year so I would like to removed from ownership for my team. I have already allocated for arbitration so we should be covered. Thank you!

Hi Everyone, looking forward to playing with you guys.
Over half of my team is likely to be cut prior to the draft, if you see anyone you’re interested in at their salary please let me know, otherwise they will most likely be thrown back into the draft. I’m planning to make my cuts by Monday so everyone has enough time to prepare for the draft.
-
Thanks, Curlin, for the hard work in figuring out a draft date and time. Appreciate it.

Also, just a quick unrelated public service note, if anyone is interested in wasting even more time on Ottoneu, there is a very active Slack group of at least 750 players that I suspect a number of us are already on. It's helpful/fun and I've learned a lot there over the years. Totally optional, but if anyone is interested let me know and I'll point you to where to request access!

Welcome to the league to our new manager of the Clay Guida team! As we discussed you get one round of free cuts, but you have to make them all in one big cut so please double-check your list before clicking the button!

So far I haven’t heard anyone that can’t do the 12th at 6pm EST (unless I’ve missed something which is definitely possible), though I haven't heard from everyone. I’m tentatively planning to go with that but I’ll give everyone another 24 hours to speak up if that doesn’t work?
