Well, since I haven't been ejected from league after my October 7 post, I decided to stay in league, so count me in (my arb was done)

Midnight tonight EST is the arbitration deadline. Sleepless, My Analytics, and Pete's Revenge: are you able to complete arbitration by then? Thanks.
-
Done!
-
Hello y'all! Please complete your arbitration if you haven't already...the deadline is in 2 days on the 14th, thank you!

Congrats to Baby Sharks for the championship and thanks to Dublin Angels for stepping in as the new commish!
-
Great news: Dublin Angels will be the new commissioner. I am working with him to show him the ropes. PLEASE START YOUR ARBITRATION CHOICES. We have until Nov 15 to complete them. Thanks!
-
League, I hate to write this but I will need to drop out as well. This fall I have increased responsibilities caring for others at home and working at my church that necessitates this decision. My hope is that someone will step up and be commissioner and keep the league going. I will help them get going. I think it's a great place to learn and enjoy Ottoneu with others. I have certainly enjoyed competing with all of you.
So, who is planning to continue playing in the league?
-
Wonderboy regrets that they too will no longer be playing next year. It’s been fun but for a variety of reasons I won’t be able to commit to another year.

Hi Commish, wanted to say it's been a pleasure playing with all of you this season. Got way too many leagues and cannot maintain so many teams (time consuming and $$$). So I won't be renewing, some talent to attract new owner for next year so you should be able to quickly fill vacancy. have a good arb and a great future season! Thanks Commish for great work

Dublin, once someone takes the commissioner's role, I will show them the ropes and help them as they need. The biggest task is setting up and managing the annual draft day. Occasionally, you would need to post any team openings on Ottoneu, which get filled rapidly. The rest is just helping out when someone has a question. This league has a good set of managers that make it easy. Hope this helps.
-
Congrats Baby Shark! In regards to the commissioner situation, what’s the plan there? I’m intrigued, but still pretty new to Ottoneu, this being my first season and not sure if I would have the time to do it as well. Other than that I’m definitely in for next year if the league does keep going

Congratulations to Baby Shark on a well played season! Well done!
-
League, I will not be able to continue as commissioner next year, given some health concerns at home. If you're interested, let me know.
-
Shohei is available. Looking for a trade similar to my Acuna deal. Hit me up if interested!
-
I was getting tired of that happening so this year I just loaded up on guys who were already hurt....
-
Going into the season thinking you having you pitching locked down with Cole, Bieber, Kirby, Castillo And Luzardo. Injuries suck. Still love baseball
-
Yes, I am confirming a 1:00pm start to our draft tomorrow, March 10th. But a heads up: tomorrow the US starts Daylight Savings Time. We 'spring forward" an hour, so please set your clocks and make sure you get the time right! I'll send an league-wide email later.

Still says 1 pm Sunday on league page

OK, hearing no objections, the annual draft is set for Mar 10, 1pm EST. See you then.
-
Yikes, yup, Friday 2/16. (setting draft dates in multiple leagues got me confused!)
-
I think the Commish meant he would give it to 2/16 not 3/16
Wonderboy on
February 13, 2024 6:48 PM

I'll give it until Friday, 3/16. If no one objects, the annual draft date will be 3/10 1pm est. My Analytics and Sleepless, let us know. Thanks.
-
Thanks, Baby Sharks, for the 3/10 OK, and for the quick response, AKA and Pete.
We now have 10 who can draft on 3/10 1pm EST.
Sleepless & My Analytics: can you make that date?
-
I'm a definite no for 3/9 at 1pm. But I could probably make the 1pm on 3/10 work and already was a yes for the other times.

I will try to make any time that gets selected. Thanks.

I just checked the calendar again. Starting at 9pm est means Dublin will start the auction at 2am. That's too harsh. We have several days with 7/8 acceptable: Sat 2/24 1pm; Sat 3/9 1pm; Sun 3/10 1pm, Sun 3/10 6pm - and that's without surveys from 4. Are there any no's or maybe's that could change to "maybe's or yes's on those dates?
If not, I will start a second survey, looking at week nights. (the Doodle app free version allows only 20 dates.) Can we nail this date soo
-
Ok, Is there anyone who CANNOT do Sun, 2/25 @ 9pm est?
-
If necessary I could do it if started at 9 pm est
Larry Bowa on

I can’t do later on 2/25 unless we are talking after 8 pm and sounds like that doesn’t work for Larry Bowa.
Baby Sharks on

I already have two other drafts at 7 and 8 so if you do change make it no later than 4 pm please

Sorry everyone I've been out of the country on vacation. I should be able to make 2/25 work but not sure I can start that early as my daughter has a volleyball tournament that probably won't get over until at least 2 Eastern. Could we do the draft a little later in the day?
-
Great. We're up to 9 who can make 2/25 @ 1pm EST. Will that time work for My Analytics, Pete's Revenge, & Wander Vision?
-
I just voted, but that date & time should work for me
-
Should work for me.
-
Good for me

Thanks to the six who completed the draft calendar. So far, Feb 25, 1-4pm EST is good for everyone. Is there anyone who hasn't voted who can't make that time??? Let me know. Maybe we have a date.
-
Next up: setting the draft day. Here's the link; please complete the survey/calendar ASAP. The free doodle site has less functionality, so you may have green, yellow, and blank colors for yes, maybe, and no. Options may depend on your platform. Let me know if you have any problems. Looking forward to our annual draft!

Last day to renew - almost all done (except My Analytics & Pete's Revenge - you have until midnight tonight EST!)
-
Acuna available for trade. I would need a nice package but he is available.
-
Excited to join what looks like a great league. Hoping to move some young hitters/prospects for pitching before the deadline if anyone is interested.

2024 dues are due 1/31 midnight EST. Thanks to the 6 who have renewed so far.

That was quick. Thanks for joining.

Good news! Both teams have new owners. Welcome to Juicemon01 who took over the Baltimore Elite Giant Birds team, now Sleepless in Seattle. Welcome also to Ironman88 who now owns the Beef & Chedda team. (wonder what the new name will be?) You two have a few days to get your team ready for the Keeper Deadline (1/31). Best wishes!
-
And if anyone is interested in being (co-)commissioner, let me know. thanks.
-
Also, I'm taking suggestions for making the league as competitive and interesting as possible. We have a good mix of seasoned and new managers, so I expect a variety of perspectives.
-
Beef & Chedda let me know last night he won't be returning. That makes 2. Tell your friends. If you're on Slack, please post it there. I'll write a message for potential new managers. If anyone else is leaning that way, please let me know.
-
One week until the Jan 31 renewal and cut deadline. So far 6 of 11 teams have renewed (thanks!). Hopefully everyone else is planning to do so as well, but if anyone else isn't going to for any reason please let me know ASAP so we can try to find a new manager prior to the cut deadline. Otherwise, one week left to make trades!
