If you can't find a date that works, maybe we should look at a slow draft.

You should just be able to copy and paste the URL. That's all I did.

Regarding the Doodle Poll for Draft Date Unavailability, three teams have successfully entered their bad dates, so the process seems to be working. If anyone has difficulty, feel free to message me directly or here with any/all dates that are bad for you between now and Opening Day. Let's see if we can find a mutually agreeable date by the end of the week.
-
Thanks Torpedoes-It may be just me, but I'm having difficulty getting into our poll's page. When I've created them in the past, I had to provide the email of the participants, so they can be invited to join the poll. Not sure if that is the issue or if it is just me. Thanks.

It sounded initially if a Sunday in March would be a good option, but apparently that is not the case. I have created a new Doodle poll here: https://doodle.com/poll/2as8b8snnafqgyp7
Please select any of these options that will NOT work for you and let's see if we can settle on a mutually acceptable date and time.

I can’t do the 22nd. Sorry about that.

Alrighty, then. 3/8 OUT, 3/15 OUT, are there any objections to the evening of Sunday, March 22?
-
7-8 is a no go for me, but I can do the 22nd at night
-
Sorry to make things difficult, but I' can't do the 15th. The 8th or the 22nd (in the evening) would be good though. Thanks.

I have another at 7pm that day. If we can do it earlier in the day it works for me.
-
Now that we have keepers locked in, it's time to nail down a draft date. Does anyone have objections to Sunday afternoon, March 15? If not, please sing out if you have a time preference.

You can access the private messaging system by clicking on the icon to the right of the "Tools" icon at the top of the screen. It will be overlaid by a yellow bubble with a number signifying the number of unread messages in your inbox.
-
No, I'm not aware of it. I see a place to post a message, but I assume that's going to the entire group. As I said, I'm still finding my way around. I'm used to the CBS site and have never used this one.
-
That's Disgusting - are you aware if the messaging feature in this format? I sent you a message weeks ago that is still marked as unread. It's a very useful feature to discuss potential trades before making offers.
-
My initial message was not about the merits of this particular trade. It was about the lack of response to my proposals and messages and to see if others had the same issue. It appears perhaps I am alone in this, which is unfortunate.
-
My issue has been with Hot Spurs...He used to be really active, but has been out this off-season, even his trade block is from last year. He does have like 12 teams..so...I just haven't gotten a single response from him all off-season. I also use "issue" loosely, different strokes for different folks, so it's not a big deal, but like I said, a simple rejection would be nice.
-
Okay, now I’ll agree then. I thought you were speaking about new owner That’s Disgusting. Your correct, HotSpurs hasn’t responded. But I don’t see anything wrong with the accepted trade though.

Ultimately, it’s a game. Part of the fun for me is trying to find a trade and be competitive. Just respond somehow in a timely manner. If your uncertain and thinking it over, just send a message saying your still thinking on it. Reject it, counter it. And lastly don’t get insulted over an offer. We all view players differently. One mans trash may be another’s treasure.

I haven’t had a problem. That’s Disgusting has rejected the offer I sent(like most of you others have....lol). And I don’t see anything at all wrong with the accepted trade. Nothing to see here in my opinion. There does appear to be more than one owner saying they didn’t get a response. I would ask that all owners please be considerate to your fellow owners and respond somehow. Nothing more annoying than waiting for a response.

Disgusting, I'm referring to hot spurs, he used to be pretty active...
-
"Honestly, even a rejection would be nice." Killer Bee's, I rejected your trade days ago. I'm sorry you didn't see it. I'm still learning my way around the site.
-
I don't know if any of you noticed, but I've come into your league by way of inheriting a team with which I have no chance of competing this season. That being said, I want to build something for the future. Any offers which allow me to do this I will consider, but the trades I've been offered so far are pretty bad. I've rejected all but one of them. The trade with Hotspurs is one that makes some sense. If you want to offer me something like that, I will definitely consider it
-
Same here...

Glad to see I wasn't the only one to experience this. I can handle dealing with unresponsive owners, but I am concerned to see that the unresponsiveness is apparently selective and does not apply to Hotspurs, who he happens to know personally.
-
Czech, I am right there with you. Multiple emails and offers and never a response. I even sent an offer as soon as I saw that one go through, and no response, still pending. Honestly, even a rejection would be nice.
-
I find it very interesting to see this trade accepted today after receiving zero response from our new owner to my messages and multiple trade proposals during the course of the offseason. It's especially interesting given that the new owner was brought in by Hotspurs. Am I alone here, or have others had the same experience this offseason with our new owner?
-
I'm sending out offers before the deadline. If I send you an offer that is a duplicate from the past, my apologies. I can't remember all that I have offered and not researching to see what I did. A simple reject, with a counter-offer if any interest, or a message stating you plan to keep the player I inquire about would be great. Just trying to see if any of my tradeable pieces have interest before the deadline.

I can't do March 1,28, 29. I will have additional dates to add as my other leagues set dates. I'll update once I find out if other leagues set date before we do here.

I'm new. How do I pay?
-
Just a friendly reminder that the roster freeze deadline AND the deadline for making payment for the 2020 season are both this coming Friday, January 31. You have one week! We should also start working to lock down a draft date. If anyone has days/times of the week that are generally a no-go, or other upcoming conflicts/concerns, please sing out this weekend. Last year we did it on a Sunday at 3p EST, which seemed to work pretty well for everyone. MLB Opening Day is Thu 3/26.
-
With cuts due next Friday, trade offers should be increasing. Could all owners please make sure to respond quickly somehow to any offers. Owners trying to make last minute trades and your response helps to determine which direction to move. Thanks.

Fair enough. Wasn't aware that January 31st was now the renewal deadline for everyone. I agree that should provide enough time to find a new owner, if needed. Thanks for the response.
-
All teams must renew (be paid for) with Ottoneu by January 31, the same date that keepers are due. Any teams that fail to renew will be made available after that point, which should provide plenty of time to find a replacement before the auction. I agree that it is odd, but I don't know that we can reasonably legislate owners with "odd" off-season behavior out of the league.
-
I didn't actually mention a trade offer and that's beside the point. I just found it odd that a new owner wouldn't even check his team for a month and a half. If this owner is going to bail, it would be better to know now than have to scramble right before the season.
-
Czech Mate - I recruited the new owner for Musial Suspects. I will talk to him tomorrow. He will respond to your trade offer.
-
Hey commish... what's the deal with Musial Suspects? Has the new owner paid for the upcoming season? If not, any chance you could abandon the team to allow an active owner to pick it up? Current owner isn't even checking in...
-
Thanks for the welcome! Glad to join!

Welcome to the new owner of El Capitan, who joined us over the holiday. Great to have you on board!
-
It would be great if everyone would update your trade block. Let everyone know who is available for trade. If I make an offer, counter if you don't like it. Most times, I only have small interest, so counter to see if we are even close. I can't read your mind to know your value and we all value players differently.

Today is the final day for Ottoneu Arbitration. Please don't forget to make your allocations or make any adjustments to those you have already posted. Next up it's Trade Season!
-
Just a reminder that arbitration ends next Thursday, November 14. Several teams have yet to allocate their arb dollars, so please remember to do so, either this weekend, or at some point before the deadline. Each team has $25 to allocate; at least $1 to a player on each of the other 11 teams; no more than $3 to any team; MUST allocate all $25. Trading opens once again at the conclusion of arbitration.
-
Hey Guys. It's been a pleasure playing the last two seasons with you all. I need to shed a few teams next spring due to time constraints so I'm abandoning this team. I can't find an option to do that myself, so commish, please give the El Capitan squad the boot. Thanks, and best of luck to everyone here!

thanks hot spurs

Example of why this even matters: I put a bid in for Corey Seager. Lost because Hotspurs bid. If Hotspurs would have been made to follow the rules and cut players from team, I could have option to bid Machado. There was no penalty for Hotspurs to bid. His bid and no accountability blocked myself or others from getting Seager at a potential reasonable keeper price. Or Machado as well. Cutting after the season is no penalty and others cannot bid.
