Only day I’m not working this weekend is Sun. The weekdays in the doodle is when I’ll be in HI
-
If that really is the only day I could probably squeeze it in after more like 8 eastern.
-
I can't do the 21st
-
Finally filled out the poll. Curly/Alton are you guys available this weekend?
-
For reference, evening of March 21st has 7 "yes" and 2 "if needs be" responses.

With nine participants, the evening of March 21st remains the top choice. At this point, I think it's probably going to be difficult to find a date/time that works better for more people. But I'm not the commish so it's not my call. If I can do more to help with the poll stuff, let me know.

Hey y'all, small snafu: When I added weekdays to the poll, I also noticed that some of the weekend options said 6:45pm ET start time instead of 7:00. Even though that's arbitrary, it was bothering me, so I changed them to 7pm, and now people who already voted on those dates have ?'s where their answer was. Sorry about that, but could people please revisit the poll to make sure they've entered answers for all options?

Okay. I updated the poll to include a bunch of weekdays. Left out Wednesdays because one person said they couldn't make any.

I'd prefer not to draft Mar 4-13
-
Okay so which two weeks should I add to the poll for weekdays?

Yes it will be a two day draft since it's a first year league, but my conflict that weekend is due to a ski trip lol. The uncertainty in the other league is the reason I haven't filled out the poll yet (and likely same for TPATY). Based on the way things seem to be going I'm hoping for a weeknight draft, possibly spread out over two short sessions if necessary - I'm hopeful that would be pretty palatable if any are opposed to a late start.
-
@Levy: It's a two-day draft?
Rickey Bobbey on

Not for me. Haven't filled out the poll while waiting for another league to decide on date.
-
It's actually looking like a later start time on 3/20 or 3/21 will work?

The weekdays of 3/8-3/12 are bad for me, and I will not be available any Wednesdays. Otherwise I can probably make a weeknight work as well.
-
The one week I will be out of town for the foreseeable future is 3/17-22 which I think falls on that weekend. TPATY and I have another new league ottoneu draft we are trying to get scheduled which is the only reason I haven't responded to the poll.
-
Happy to add weekdays to the poll, but if we're going to do that, I think we should at least narrow down to a two week timeframe. Should I just select the two most popular weeks based on the weekend voting, or ...?

I'm also in favor of including weeknights in the poll, although I could probably make it work on most weekends as well.
-
I'm also mostly good with weeknights, I didn't put them in the poll because I didn't want to have every day listed.

I'm fine with most weeknights.
-
Just checking….am I in the minority where weeknights are actually better? With small kids weekends are mostly family time. I can pretty much make any weeknight work after 7ish ET. Late for west coast folks is good too (one night up late never killed me). Anyway, was just curious. Filled in poll for most later weekend nights as well and will make it work either way.

I just updated the poll to include next weekend. Sorry, should have done that from the beginning. I like earlier drafts myself, so I'm down for that. I can't do Sunday evening though.

Normally I'm all about pushing the draft as far as possible, but I will be gone the one weekend that is currently looking like the most available. What about next weekend?
-
We have five people who have participated in the poll so far and are already down to only two dates/times that work for everyone. Hopefully, the rest of the people can also do one of those dates. :)

Here's the poll. For now I limited it to weekends between now and opening day. There's an early and late start for each weekend day. The times are placeholders; if we can just decide on a date and early or late start, we can nail down the actual start time later. If needs be, I can revise the poll (or create a new one) to include week nights.

So, we gonna get a doodle going or something? I'd be happy to set that up if it would be helpful to the commish.

I am also on the east coast along with TPATY.
-
I'm not sure if I'm the only east coast person in the league, but an 8pm PST start time would be kinda late for me. I can manage it most days, but it wouldn't be ideal. And Curly, you're right: boo hoo, the time zone is so different in the ugly, miserable state of Hawaii. :)

Email, discord, whatever is fine. Or if commish just wants to post a doodle poll here with date options.

Hate to put this on the league due to my 12 hour shift schedule, but 3 days every week till opening day i can't do the draft unless it starts at 8pm PST. Then I'm not gonna get much sympathy for this, but I'll be in Hawaii for 10 days between now and opening day. I could draft when i'm there but the timing would have to be figured out. I'd rather not post my schedule and vacation dates online. Can we get a email thread going?
-
Any thoughts on a draft date? I have several scheduled already so I'm not available for the following dates/times: 2/28 (evening); 3/1 (evening); 3/14 (evening); and 3/21 (afternoon).

I'm in the PNW and work till 8pm when I do. Sorry if that eliminates a lot of possible days. If we get an email going I'll send the days I work.
-
Also, should we have an email list for things like this? Might be easier for communication than this message board

Hey folks, looks like season is starting April 1! I don't think we need to schedule the draft yet, but we should start thinking about it.

I wouldn't object to you also cutting Trout, Turner, and Cole as well. :)

If it matters I vouch for TP&TY. He is my friend and I've been trying to get him into the league for a couple years now. I feel like we've done little things like this before in the past and I think it would improve his initial experience/the strength of the league so hopefully it's not a bid deal to anyone. I also feel like the cut date is somewhat arbitrary (though necessary) but that's just the lawyer in me talking haha. Besides someone else wants Buehler right? lol
-
Hey All - I understand that it is a couple of days after the cut deadline, but would anyone object to me dropping Walker Bueller? This is my first year playing Ottoneu and I don't think I fully appreciated my cap situation going into the draft and the lack of transaction options between the cut deadline and the draft. If it's a big issue, I'll just make due. Thanks for your consideration.
-
If anyone is looking for some starting pitching before this trade deadline hits, let’s talk. Looking for some outfield and possibly 2B help.

Hello! Jon here.
Still getting my feet set with the league structure, but hit me up if you want to talk trades or whatever. Happy to be with you all for the 2021 season!
