You should see a button marked "Auction Draft" in the top left of your Otto screen. If you click it, you can see the draft room. I suggest going through available players and clicking the "W+" link to add the ones you are interested in drafting/nominating to your Waitlist before draft day. You have 30 seconds to nominate, so if you don't have a queue, it can get stressful. After that, it is a pretty basic auction. If you don't nominate during your 30 second window, you will b

The draft date works for me. Having never done an otto draft before, can any vets let me know what to expect in terms of format, timing of nominations, etc.? Is there a draft room?

Alright we're got the draft scheduled for March 16 @ 8pm which seemed to be the consensus although not everyone affirmatively responded. Please let us know if we need to adjust the day or time, as 100% participation is paramount.

3/16 at 8PM EST works for me
-
I would think something like 8pm eastern. We could move this if folks have time zone differences.

What time?

Looks like Friday night 3/16 is the only day that works for all 6 of the poll participants. Can everyone else make that date, too?

Maybe late February??

I can do pretty much any weekend on the auction.

Penalty-free cuts for Springer won the day. Now we need to set a draft date and time. We'll use a doodle poll for scheduling. It's easier to set up if we know what dates are definite no's ahead of time. So, please post those here sooner than later.

I would lean cut with penalty for the reasons I listed below, but am totally fine if it is just a cut.

I've not gotten much response re: Springer's roster. So, let me know soon if you oppose me cutting his four requested guys without any cap penalty. Alternatively, we can cut them with a cap penalty. I've not had anyone express that he should miss the draft and make his own cuts thereafter.

No problem, Springer. Your penchant for blockbusters was fun to see and miscalculations happen when intoxicated with the receipt of Mr. Sale & Co. Let us know who all you'd like to cut and we can vote on whether there should be a cap penalty or full cut. I think it's an honest mistake, want to keep the draft "full participation" and thus vote for allowance of one-time full cuts.
-
Sorry guys about all the crap. I apologize.

In a nutshell, springer made cuts but should have made more because his last second trades put him over the salary cap limit. This invalidates the roster so we need to decide how to handle it
-
What happened now? Springer didn’t make his cuts?

I favor letting Springer cut. Commish tools let us select (With Penalty) or remove the player (No Penalty) so we'll need to decide that. I assume Springer will cut down below $400, not stay at $400 even, in which case I'd like him in the draft since it's a very fun part of the process and most enjoyable if we're all participating.
-
Totally believe you. I am fine with either outcome.

I honestly did the math wrong when doing my last minute trades. Just want to drop a few players to be valid. I won't participate in the auction this year. Hopefully this can solve the screw up I made.

Definitely not accusing Springer of doing so, but there could be a slight competitive advantage to seeing all of the other league cuts before finalizing your own.

I also think Springer should be allowed to make cuts and draft. Perhaps with the 50% salary cap penalty for missing the deadline? He would get that hit, regardless, if we didn't let him make cuts. To be a bit of a devil's advocate to KBO's comment, Springer now can make cuts based on a clear understanding of what other people cut and could take position scarcity into account, which could impact the rest of us negatively.

It's OK I've been called worse lol. Like I said I'm OK with not participating in this year's auction. I'd just like to be able to make the necessary cuts to my team not anyone else. My screw up.

I agree that Springer should be allowed to make some cuts to fix
-
Wrong league sorry Springer. A female owner missed the deadline in another league so unless you are a woman disregard the “her”. Otherwise the rest of the message stands.
-
I’m ok with letting her make the cuts ASAP. Sounds like an honest mistake. She should be part of the draft imo. She didn’t gain anything these last couple of days. Nobody got hut/traded/signed.

I'd like to be able to drop who I'd like to though. So those players can be in the auction. LMK people (commish)

It's my fault on the invalid team. I screwed up on it. I don't have to be apart of the auction this year. I'll accept that.

Springer- rules say that you either should not be able to be in the auction or that the commish can cut for you.
