Whoaaa, what a trade between Hornets and Ducklings
-
fun draft last night. thanks for being there. good to meet some of the newer guys, like Bryce & Book of Bo. Looks like we now have 6 of the original owners from the 2016 inaugural season, 6 more recent add-ins. The competition is stiff. cheers

I, for one, am psyched.

Draft Day :)
-
It's a $75 league, so payouts are: $400, $150, $75 (1st, 2nd, 3rd).
-
Hey guys how much is buy-in normally for the league and what does winner/2nd get? Thanks!

Yep, working then teach after. Thanks
-
I could have put more subtlely into the poll perhaps but how much complication can one take. There's still room for compromise-- like maybe the 28th could be the day, except I think The Haders are maybe teaching then? And there's less time to rearrange a schedule. At least if it's April 3rd that gives people more time to adapt.
-
OK, I see 12 responses and no day when everybody can be there. I think I need to make a decision here and call it for April 3rd, late afternoon early evening. more anon
-
Thanks, BoBB, thanks to all for getting your dates/times in. 9 have responded to the poll so far. At this point Monday evening March 28 and Sunday afternoon April 3rd are looking best. And even in those, 1 or 2 people are having to stretch a little to make the time. But not surprised that both The Papi & Yaz Cats are good citizens. Anyhow, I hope everyone will jump in and we can nail down something that'll work. cheers, oppo

Morning all just send in the doodle. Im pretty flexible with enough heads up just work saturdays untiul one if we do start then if we can shove it to `130 I am conflict free and looking forward to it :)
-
I set up a Doodle Poll: https://doodle.com/meeting/participate/id/negP93ka. Plz weigh in with possible start times you can make. Those are east coast times. You are only going to be indicating the times that you can START the draft, not the whole period of the draft. I know a bunch of us are in Cali, but probably there are guys all over the place, so our windows of opportunity might be narrow. Plz consider that everyone has a life and maybe a little flexibiity is needed.
-
Maybe it’s just me but I wouldn’t buy into a league where I wasn’t available for the existing draft time. All I’m suggesting is perhaps considered that being new to a league might require some flexibility and didn’t you say earlier, Sam, that you weren’t available on Saturdays or Sundays?

Impossible for me on the 27, already have 4 drafts that night and 3 on 3/20. Would be open for 18 and 19
-
Looks like the season starts April 7! Unfortunately I'm basically out of commission the weekend of April 1-3. Late afternoon or evening on Sunday the 3rd (West coast US time) should be possible though. I could probably do Sunday March 27. And I'm open the weekend of March 18-20 too.
-
That draft date and time works for me.
-
I did set a draft for april 2, saturday, 7pm eastern. Very tentative.
-
Woah! Sounds like we have an Agreement! So psyched. Let's figure on a draft in a couple-three weeks, once we hear some of the details about the new CBA.
-
Sorry to say I have a draft scheduled for that day at 11 so that would be tough for me to make.

Yeah, I thought morning might be better for the Ducklings. But he's always been really accommodating which is quite welcome. In any case, just going to leave this issue up in the air for now. Let's see where we are next week. cheers
-
Honestly morning US time would be best suited for me, cause I know for sure I won’t be doing anything in the middle of the night here haha! But I’m good with whatever you guys choose, I’ll work around it.

I cannot do morning of 20th sadly. Evenings are best for me.

I wonder if Lookout Larry could do earlier Sunday -- also wondering if the Utley Ducklings could work with that? I've currently set it at noon on the 20th. That's 9am for those of us on the west coast.
-
Thanks. Yes, I could do Sunday morning on that day. Really any time on weekends or weeknights other than 4:00-8:00pm Eastern on Sunday or the following Monday night, 8pm-12am Eastern. Any other times I can make work.

Hi— so, really, can’t get stressed, because nothing is settled with MLB yet. We won’t do it Sunday evening the 20th if you cannot make it. I wonder if Sunday morning the 20th would work for people? We could do it during the week if need be too. I’m sure we can settle a time when we need to- if CD we have to, we’ll do a Doodle poll.
-
What time on the March 20th? I have another auction on that day that starts at 4pm Eastern. It's a third year auction, so probably take no more than 3-4 hours. It's not ideal to do them back-to-back, but I'm not drafting very many players in this league so it should be fine. I also have another one on Monday, March 21st.

definitely not set for the 12th. in fact, I'm moving it to Sunday the 20th. and I'm going to be hopeful that that day will actually work. the owners of real baseball will probably come to their senses soon and there will be a breakthrough, but we certainly can't count on it. So we're going to maybe need to be flexible. I would like there to be 3 weeks between when training starts and when our auction happens.
-
Just checking in on the auction date: are we settled on the 12th or are we doing another day around then? I'm flexible around then at this point (weekends, weeknights, whatever), but I would prefer to get something on the calendar sooner rather than later to make sure nothing gets scheduled that would conflict.

Hi. We can continue to look at the auction day. I’d like to do it on the weekend if possible. Sunday is fine for me but one of our founding owners is in Australia and we’d like to accommodate him as well if at all possible. Everything is up in the air with the lockout and the signs are not encouraging right now for an on-time start of the season. So…. Stay tuned….
-
Thanks gents. Appreciate it. I sadly won’t be able to make that draft on March 12. Friday’s and Saturday’s are rough for me because of work. Was curious if we could do a Sunday-Thurs night. Also was curious if we will delay draft if season has not been announced by then?

Welcome, Lockout Larry. Glad you could join.

Hey guys, excited to join the league. Been playing ottoneu in another league for the same amount of time as when you all started. Figured it was time for a 2nd team. Pretty much gutting this team, and restarting most of it. Feel free to shoot me a text (818) 450-4659 with your name and team name so we can talk trades throughout the season… whenever that may be!

dudes, today I'm moving the auction date out to March 12th. Seeming like the season could well be delayed. No matter what happens I'd like to give us all a couple-three weeks from the point spring training and opening day are confirmed. In the meantime, make your drops!
-
yikes, today is the keeper deadline!
-
Hey all! Just want to make sure everyone is aware that the keeper deadline is tonight at 11:59PM EST.
-
Okay, well looks like rAtb0y didn't renew his team so it's been abandoned. We should look for a new manager. Let anyone you know who might be interested. I'll also post some invitations.
-
Hm. Good question. I do not think we should do the auction on 3/5 if the lockout isn't resolved. In fact, we go another couple of weeks here without a change, I think we should delay the auction. I haven't even thought about baseball, don't know about ya'll.
-
In terms of the auction date, are we going to do it on March 5th even if the lockout hasn't been resolved? I'm totally fine with doing it, just want to know if it might get pushed back for planning purposes.

Hey all! Just a heads up: the keeper deadline for all Ottoneu leagues has been pushed back to Feb 15 due to the lockout (https://community.ottoneu.com/t/keeper-deadline-adjust-if-lockout-occurs/10611/4?u=nivshah). We now have two additional weeks to trade away!
-
Excellent - great to see we have a full slate of competitors here, heading into the 7th season of the Timmy. Now all we need is for baseball to get itself together so there will be live baseball this season. I hope everyone can look at the auction time/date currently slated (March 5, 7pm Eastern Time) and put that on their calendars. Hopefully we can just go with that time and not have to monkey around with it. cheers, Oppo.

Welcome Papi, appreciate you making that the shortest "new guy" stint in existence
-
Welcome to the league, Big Papi! We're in a league together (Atomic Fantasy; I'm "Axiom of Royce"). Also, I believe that you took over two of my teams in Foulballs (formerly "The Lone Gunmen") and Designated Pinch Runners (formerly "Colicky Baby Yodas"). This is a great league and very happy to see you join it.

Alas, the Yu Stay Clase, San Diego team owner has retired from fantasy baseball -- that's a shame, we've been playing against (with) that young fella for more than 15 years. We carry on though . . . . we'll post a note about the abandoned team on Slack. cheers
-
Great to see the New New York Mets have joined us. Good luck, sir.
-
ok i tentatively set the auction for March 5 at 7pm
-
We'll also need to set the draft date and time soon. Last year it was first weekend in March.
