Depends on what other leagues decide to do. If there are leagues with a large number of team not renewing they may decide to "kill" the league. The owners that were active will then go find new leagues to join. According to the person that runs the system, if a league had no renewals or only a couple he disbanded the league himself. Leagues with only one or two open spots usually fill faster because a new owner is more confident in the stability of the league than one with 4 or more sp

Is it usually easy to fill the abandoned teams? So many on the board right now.

It has been stated on the community board that those that run the Ottoneu system (not our commish) will NOT be extending the keeper deadline any further - the 15th is final. This is because some leagues still want to hold their draft in mid-late February. The system will not allow drafts to occur until after the keeper deadline. Again, the commish has no control over the deadline. Just giving owners a heads up in case you were holding off on trade deals thinking the deadline would be extended.

I can take on a contract if anyone is looking to clear some salary for a minor piece. I'm looking for a slugger and/or some SP.

Welcome to the new owner of Iowa.

FYI - due to the current lockout the cut deadline has been extended to Feb. 15th. $20 team renewals still need to be made by Jan. 31st.

Thanks! I updated my trade block.

Hey, I just claimed this team I hope it's ok. Any unusual rules or anything I should be aware of?

Happy Thanksgiving to my fellow owners.

League - I hardly knew ye.... I need to bow out of the league - I got accepted to UCLA for Winter semester, starting a 2 year long course. And my wife and I are having another kid in Feb. I can deal with one and a league but not both and another league. I'm bummed to say the least - but I've noticed that FBB brings down my ability to get shit done. So I have to cut it for now. I hope you understand.

Nice job league. Only Ball Club and Crunch left to do arbitration.

Welcome to the league Jeremy.

Hey Everyone, I am Jeremy and I live in Arkansas. I am a lifelong Braves fan, so it has been a good year for me. I won a fantasy baseball league this year. It will be my first time playing ottoneu, so I look forward to it

Hi everyone, I'm a longtime fantasy player (1999) and commissioner. I ran a dynasty league for 11 years and began playing in NFBC leagues shortly after that disbanded. I heard about Ottoneu through Eno Sarris and Jeff Erickson, and the format is something that really appeals to me.
I'm looking forward to being an active owner. I'm probably one of those guys that can tinker a bit too much despite telling myself every year that I won't.
I'm open for business as soon as ar

Welcome to the new owner of Wandering Fools.

Hey League! My name is Eric. I grew up in Iowa. Moved to Boston and now live in Los Angeles. This post season is going to be fun.
I’ve been playing fantasy for 5 years or so. I just won 2 of my leagues this year and wanted to find a league that was a bit more challenging and less confined to just 6 months.
I look forward to learning this format and picking your brains.
I probably value players differently than some and am always interested in trades.

Welcome to the new owner of Iowa.
-
Looks like we are going to need 3 new owners. I know it is early, but if you know someone that wants to get in it would be great to have them in for arbitration period.
-
Congratulations to the Crime Dog, whose biscuits no one could take a bite out of.
-
Congrats Crime Dog. Next year we sell out - next year we dominate. My thanks to the rest of the league for continuing to work on your rosters even after the trade deadline. The future of this league looks strong and I think Crime Dog is going to have a lot of contenders looking to take him down next year.
-
Congrats Crime Dog! Great season!
-
Congrats Crime Dog. Great season everyone. Enjoy the playoffs.
-
Just a heads up. I did a no-penalty cut for our new owner. The auction on Arcia was started by the previous owner.
-
Thanks! I think I’m in another league (362) with a few of you.

Welcome to the league Yari.
-
The 'Don't give a Whit' owner has asked to abandon his team as a protest for some grievance in another league. It turns out he has quit in 3 leagues that we are in together. Suffice it to say, he feels very aggrieved by a trade (that I was not involved in) that no one vetoed and I, as commissioner, had the gall to let stand. It is a good team...we should have no problem finding a replacement owner.
-
Holy cow. BIG bids on Manoah. As probably the biggest Blue Jays fan on the planet...I hope he earns it. I thought my $7 was a lock...got that wrong.
-
15 minute warning.
-
Sending positive vibes man. All the best!
-
Thoughts and well wishes! Best of luck!
-
Sending many good thoughts your way!
-
Thoughts and prayers to you during this difficult time.

Hey guys, I'm really sorry but I'm not going to make the draft. I was admitted to the hospital yesterday with covid and what they are terming as severe pneumonia in both lungs. Not sure how long I'll be in but I'm pretty sure I won't be out by Monday. If you can't find anyone to draft for me or just take the team, I'll just buy up whatever free agents are left. Again, I'm really sorry guys.
-
Hey all, are there any guys out here in AZ besides me? Anyone going to spring training games?
-
Welcome Scott and thank you for joining.
-
Hey Guys, I'm Scott. I just took over Jude's Crew and the new name is No It's Iowa. I'm open for business!!! I like to be active but only if it makes sense.
Also, I'm fine with the auction date. Have a great season!

Date is good with me.

Fine with me.

I appreciate the tentative time accommodation! Toddlers wake up eeeeaaaarly. Lol. I'm also sensitive to possibility of west coasters with us though, so still prefer 8pm, but if 9pm becomes necessary to accommodate the masses, I'll just put an extra pot of coffee on for the next morning.

That draft date works for me.
-
I have chosen Monday March 29th at 8:00 pm EST for our auction. I am reluctant to go earlier in the day, in case we have west coast owners. My preference is for later, 8:30 or 9 PM, but I am trying to accommodate Wandering Fools request. This is not set in stone...let me know if we have any conflicts, and I can try another date/time.
-
I’m good with those dates.
