Sunday is good with me. This might not be an issue for us, but requiring 1B, 2B, 3B and SS eligibility for those roster spots might cause problems for some people. Couch managers does not use the same eligibility requirements as Ottoneu, and several players do not align between the two player universes.
I had to change this with an auction I ran this year. If it is an issue and does need to be changed, just email CM support and they can change those settings.

Rosters are loaded over on CM. I only had to manually add 5 players or so, not bad. I verified each teams money spent and remaining and it looks correct. I would like to give everyone a day or two to look it over and make sure there are no errors. Perhaps we can begin on Sunday evening if everyone is OK with that. We could start now, but I felt a little time to review and get ready might be good.

Thanks to Stu's Crew and CM support, I now know that I need all of you to join the auction draft room "before" I can upload the keeper rosters. That said, I need you all to do so please. League ID is 745 and password is "Build24".

Update. This is my first time setting things up at Couch Mangers. I learned that I had to pay $15 for an annual subscription to create our draft room (free to you). Did that. I found an article on Ottoneu on how to download our rosters to a .CSV file and then upload to CM. I got to the final step and something isn't working. I tried several things and ended up emailing CM tech support with a screenshot asking for help. As soon as I can get this figured out, I can announce a start date.

OK. I'm going to try to get things loaded into Couch Managers. Duck Sauce did this last year, so I have to teach myself and figure it out. It can't be that hard. I hope to have it ready soon and will give everyone plenty of notice before we begin.

I do not remember. But I am in a slow auction that began Wed, and I think we will finish Monday, Mayne Tuesday. This is with a 24-hour auction clock and 8-hour resets. We have about 150 open roster spots when the draft began. I think we have over 160 roster spots in this league.
So, maybe a full week for the auction?
We can always speed up with extra nominations and a shortened auction timer (12 hours vs 24).

I checked the settings and the penalty free box is checked for your team. I believe Ottoneu dues need to be settled. Thanks for joining, excited to have you here.

Should I message my cuts to the commish or is it already set up for me to get a free round of penalty-free cuts?

Guys. The new owner for Duck Sauce hasn't paid up and it's responding. Does anyone know how I can abandon his team so someone else can pick it up?

Oh, i forgot that the team already has a new owner. Maybe best thing is for commish to allow a round of cuts and remove players without a cap hit? Not certain they can meet cap limits if they have to keep 50% of salary cuts.

There is also a reset on the auction timer. So, if someone's winning bid is topped towards the end of that original 12 or 24-hour timer, the auction timer resets. That reset time is set by the commish -- usually 8 or 10 hours.
You can never have more money outstanding in bids than you have available to spend. Which means you need to pick your targets. If you want one of two or three players, you might not have enough money to bid on all three at once.

Slow draft are run through Couch Managers. And it interfaces nicely with Ottoneu. Everyone's roster is imported, the available player pool, along with the available roster spots and cash per team, are updated in Couch Managers.
Commish picks an auction timer, typically either 12 or 24 hours. We each get two or three nominations at one time, meaning there will be either 24 or 36 auctions running simultaneously. As one of your auctions ends, you can nominate a new player, until your

Can someone remind me how that slow draft worked?

Slow works with all the different time zones and work schedules.

Yep, slow auction is good. I do prefer a fast auction, but I also know they are a pain to schedule. And I like slow auctions too!

How does everyone feel about the draft this season? Want to stick with the slow drafts on Couch Managers? Or do a standard Ottoneu auction? The last 2 seasons, the majority enjoyed the slow draft so we went with that. Also, we need one manager to pay who missed the deadline.

Reminder that cut/keeper deadline is only a few days away. Same as deadline for annual Ottoneu renewal. Please pay your annual dues if you have not done so already. Thank you!
