Another dominating performance, well done Matthew! Congrats! I have a feeling you are probably even more excited about those Gritty Tigers! Admirable runner-up performance by All Proofs as well. You may have came in second in the league, but you won comment of the year with the elegant analysis of Chris Sales’s outing in mid-August. Fortunately for you, there weren’t many of those along the way. I hope everyone had fun and that you all plan to stick around for 2025. This could be your year!
-
Congratulations to Microsoftly! And thank you to everyone else for a fun competitive season!

Would you look at that... With zero votes opposed, I am setting the Auction Draft Date for Sunday, March 10, 2024 with a start time of 8:30 p.m. EST. Huge tip of the cap to Garbage Inn for jumpstarting this process and suggesting the eventual winner!
-
I can make that time work too...
-
can do.

Works for me.
-
I think 8:30 EST is 9:30 EDT
-
Hi
I already have a draft showing for 7 EDT on 10 March but can deal with an overlap.
I’m in the UK, so not sure what time EST changes to EDT on 10 March??
-
March 10 is great for me
-
Works for me also
-
Date and time works for me!
-
Love it Garbage, thank you. Making an official recommendation for the auction draft taking place on March 10, 2024 at 8:30 p.m EST. If that date works for you, please confirm here with a message. I would say if we get 9 or 10 'yes' votes, we may have a winner. If not, I'll send the old reliable doodle survey. We will close this vote down on Tuesday so please try and cast your vote before then.
-
Can we set a time for the draft? I suggest March 10 at night EST

Good afternoon! I apologize for interrupting your NFL Conference Championship viewing experience but wanted to remind everyone (1) The renewal deadline for a few of our teams is fast approaching. As of now, there were four teams that needed to renew. In addition, you might not want to wait until the last second as the Ottoneu payment method has moved to Paydala. It was few extra clicks for me, but nothing too wild. Reach out if you have questions. (2) Keeper deadline = Wednesday night!
-
One Matthew is nice, but two makes it a party! I'd like to introduce our newest manager, mattyloo, who will be taking over the club formerly known as Schwar-Bombs Away. Welcome!
-
Awesome Buckner - happy to have you back! Best of luck this year!
-
Still alive and active party people
-
Secret Weapon? Eduardo Rodriguez; out of the 26 starters I've rostered at various points, him and Kershaw were the only guys to reach triple digit innings in my lineup
Key to Success? Heavy usage of platoons on offense
Plans to celebrate? None
~ Thanks again Matthew, best of luck this year! ~
-
Hi - i saw your message - I am alive and well dues paid - plan to be active - have already made my cuts - I aint leaving !
-
Name? Matthew
Where do you live? Michigan
Day job? Data and Reports Analyst (hence the team name)
Favorite Baseball Team? Detroit Tigers
1st Championship? First Ottoneu title; I've played on other platforms since 2023 and won several elsewhere, including 3 out of 4 leagues this year
Your team’s MVP? Mookie Betts. Worth every penny of the $58 keeper cost.
-
With all of the "Year in Review" features dominating my newsfeeds, I thought this might be a good time to look back (and celebrate) our 2023 Champ, Matthew of Microsoftly Excelling! Matthew was nice enough to provide some insight into their personal life and the '23 season a few months back. Hope you enjoy!
-
Happy New Year, League 645! I hope this message finds you well. Reminder - You have all of January to make your Keep/Cut decisions, as the keeper deadline is January 31, 2024. As it stands now, we will have one managerial opening (Schwar-bombs) but otherwise a full league. Please let me know if you know anyone that might be interested. If nothing turns up, I will post to the public Ottoneu pages. Once the keeper deadline has passed, we will try to nail down a day and time for the auction.
-
Just a reminder to get those arb allocations done this weekend. Deadline is Tuesday, but looks like we have most of them in already. Nice work!!
-
Welcome aboard, All Proofs! Happy to have you.
-
Hello all. Just claimed the abandoned team. Looking forward to a fun arb session and off-season! Renaming to All Proofs.

Thanks for the message Papi. I appreciate you coming back to join us this past season. Be well, my friend!

Please abandon my team, too much stuff going on health wise to manage so many teams

I enjoyed that, well done to Microsoftly and Peoria. There was a brief week when I was closer to them - didn’t last!
Enjoy the playoffs and see you next year
-
Congrats to Excelling for doing just that down the stretch to overtake me on Saturday. One of these years I'll time out the games played and innings pitched caps right, but probably not.
-
Quite an impressive run, coming up just short in the final week. And lastly, our bronze medalist, the Harpooners of Westish College. It appears they are returning this franchise to its former glory and will be a force to be reckoned with in the coming seasons. Thanks to all our players, and I sincerely hope everyone plans on coming back next season.
-
And with that, the 2023 Ottoneu season is in the books. I hope you all found this year to be as entertaining and enjoyable as I did. Congratulations to Pascal's Microsoftly Excelling squad who took home the title with an impressive 81 total points, leading the league in both HR and SLG. Nothing soft about that lineup! I also wanted to recognize our runner-up The Peoria Distillers, who had a stranglehold on the top spot for the vast majority of this season.
-
I did not hear any feedback from the crowd, so I reinstated Juan Soto to Lamoka at the original $62 salary.
-
I am fine with reassigning him to your team. I appreciate the open communication. If anyone has an issue - please respond to me, privately or on the wall - whichever you prefer. I will give this until late tonight (eastern time) and make a determination after that.
-
Woops... Meant to cut Marlow and somehow cut Soto instead. Not sure what the leagues policy on something like this... I'd love to take Soto back since it was very much unintentional but if it's too late I understand

Apologies - just realized my last message did not include the correct date. It should have read "Trade Deadline is Thursday, August 31st, for us here in Ottoneu." Last chance to improve the squad via trade! Today is also one of the rare times this year we don't have an active auction, better get on it people haha! Good luck the rest of the way.
-
Trade deadline day in real life! Thursday for us here in Ottoneu. Time to make those moves!
-
Hey everyone - hope you enjoyed your Opening Day festivities! Just a note, we had an accidental cut occur today. The manager promptly reached out and the issue was resolved within a few hours, but I did not want all of you going crazy refreshing your tabs looking for said player. We'll chalk this one up to being new to Ottoneu format and interface. If you have any problems with this particular situation, or a similar one that arises, please don't hesitate to reach out.

Auction Draft in t-minus 10 minutes!
-
Greetings esteemed members of Surplus or Scrub! We had a wild week leading up to tonight, the eve of our annual auction draft. We had a late scratch in the lineup, but our newest member Alex swooped in to save the day. Alex will be the new manager of Elligators (name subject to change). As a token of our appreciation, Alex is entitled to a round of penalty free cuts, which could lead to some new tantalizing nomination options for tomorrow. Looking forward to catching up with everyone tomorrow!
-
Barring any late additions, it appears that next Friday, March 10th is the winner of the poll. Please tentatively mark that day down for our auction draft. I will be following up with a few of you to see if we can help accommodate your schedule in an effort to have everyone present. Thank you!
-
Hey everyone, just wanted to give a quick update. I appreciate the quick turnaround on the poll, but we are still waiting on the final three votes. Currently, we have the next two Friday nights (March 3 and March 10) as they top candidates. More info to come in the next couple days.
-
Many thanks 👍
-
Along the same lines, I think you have the option to change your universal Ottoneu time setting to match your location. I have no idea how/if this works or if it makes managing during the season easier, but here is a thread I remember reading on the community page. https://community.ottoneu.com/t/users-can-now-set-their-own-timezone/7416?u=jthornton

Sorry! Yes, all times are set as EST.
-
Hi, are they Eastern time?
Trying to do my maths as I’m in the UK
