Welcome to our two new managers. If you have any questions, feel free to ask.
-
welcome to the league!
-
Hey everyone. Happy to join up. This is my first ottoneu league, but have been playing fantasy for years. Will likely make some mistakes, but looking forward to trying this new format. Will be making some moves and getting this team into contention for 2025.
-
Welcome aboard! Glad to have you for the upcoming season!
-
Hey! I grabbed the last place team. I’ll get on arbitration after I post this message. I’m looking forward to competing with all of you.

Commish and owners, downsizing quite a bit from my crazy year depression where I was claiming every team or almost, thanks for the fun, but I got to slow down (time consuming and $$), please abandon my team Congrats to winners

Actually, allocations start October 15 and end November 14. See the end of season megathread. The link is at the top of the page.
-
Thanks for heads up! I thought it'd be December some time.
-
Just realized Allocations start October 15 and end November 1, so just a short break before the offseason starts in earnest!
-
Thanks everyone for a great season and congrats to Maddogs for breaking 100 pts and Voidbringers for bringing home their first pennant! I know we have a number of teams rebuilding for 2025 so I'm looking forward to an active offseason and a number of challengers next season making it tough for Voidbringers to repeat. Enjoy the real-life playoffs and get ready for allocations starting Nov. 1!
-
Congratulations to the Voidbringers. 108 points! But, please don’t bring any voids. And the Maddogs scored 102 points and were 6 points behind. Life is hard. Please, don’t let the dogs out.
-
Thanks! I pulled away there at the very end, but Maddogs made it a challenging win. Hope everyone enjoys the offseason

Seconded. You are the Kennesaw Mountain Landish of fantasy baseball. Much appreciated.

Mine looks right. Thanks Commish. Well run draft. Good luck to everyone.

Thanks for a great draft, everyone! Rosters have all been uploaded into ottoneu and appear to match number of players and $s from Couch Managers, but be sure to review your teams to double check. First game is in Korea tomorrow so be sure to update any lineups accordingly with the time difference in mind. Good luck this season, all!
-
My family and I are out of town but will be home today. I will make my nominations this afternoon!

Hi Everyone, just a reminder that our draft will start tomorrow. I'll aim to start it around 7am Eastern, with timers running 12 hours and 6 hour resets upon new max bids. The timers will be turned off overnight from 9pm - 7am Eastern due to the wide range of time zones we have. Hopefully this doesn't overlap by more than 2-3 hours for anyone's sleep schedule, and you can still submit bids and nominations while timers are stopped. Don't forget to set email notifications on couch managers!
-
On main page toward bottom right is button to edit team name on couch managers
-
Little Sizzlers is The Maddogs 2. Sorry. I am in another couchmanagers draft and it auto filled using my other team name. I wasn't sure how to change it in couchmanagers so I changed my team name to match.

Yikes. I was futures game last year. I think when it signed in it automatically put that name in. I don't see how to change it. I am now Just a bit outside.
-
Just missing one team and there are two names that don't match team names from our league. So that I upload keepers to the right rosters, who is Futures Game and who is Mad Dogs?
-
Looking to get our Couch Managers auction created so we can load rosters and get ready to start on March 11! Here is the link, and the password is "world". After you join, please select "Edit Team Name" to change your listed name to match your ottoneu team name. That will help me match rosters accurately. Thanks!

March 11th is great, excited to get rolling!
-
March 11 works for me. I live in Belgium so in CET timezone, which is 6 hours ahead of Eastern time.

Good with me

March 11 should be okay.

I think March 11 should work for me too.

March 11th sounds like a good start date for me. Also, I'll take this opportunity to announce that Sandy Land is now Voidbringers -- just in case anyone else gets as flustered as I do when team names change. Excited to get the season started!

Oh good reminder about the early games in Korea this year! I'd relied on googling "MLB Opening Day 2024". I think March 11 should still work just fine - I imagine the draft should take no more than 7 days and we can always decrease timers when we gets to the dregs.
-
Just a reminder that there are official baseball games in Korea on March 20 and 21. And I'm sorry we had to say goodbye to Tim.
-
I'm in! Crazy about so few allocations for Freddie. So underrated for so long. You must've had some other lightning rod players getting those allocations.
-
March 11 works for me. Thanks for managing all that, commish!
-
Sorry Jose... I should have read the messages. It's weird because the text box is at the bottom but the newest messages are at the top! I should've looked!!

My proposed start date is March 11, but let me know if anyone has conflicts that would prevent them from checking in on it each day.

When is the slow draft starting?

I was curious how many players are being kept for the 2024 season on the team that originally drafted them when our league started in 2017. There are just three: Raisel Iglesias ($6 in 2017) on my team, Jose Ramirez ($7! in 2017) on Pudge, and Freddie Freeman ($37 in 2017) on Little Sizzlers. Tim Anderson could have made four, but he hit free agency after failing to come to terms on an extension with Brandon Combines. Freddie and Raisel received a combined $3 in allocations since 2017; Jose $30.
-
Thanks for making cuts! All rosters are valid and all teams are paid up, which has to be a February 1 record for this league. We have 180 open roster spots and a lot of $ to play with, so I propose we start the slow draft on Monday, March 11. 2 nominations per team to start, with winning bids getting a new nomination. Once the big names clear and auctions are a little less competitive we can increase to 3 nominations per team. Do we have any non-North America time zones again this season?
-
Just a reminder that tomorrow is the deadline for cuts and for paying registration fee for the upcoming season. Looks like we are 12/12 on teams getting under salary cap and 10/12 on registration fees so also want to say thank you to everyone for being on top of things!

Welcome, it's a good active one

Welcome Ryan!

Thanks. Seems like a great league and glad to be part of it.
-
Welcome to the new owner of Seismic Werthquake. He's a good player and familiar to many of us.
-
Hi everyone, thanks for bearing with me being a little distracted this winter. My big annual work event was this weekend and now my time should be a little freer moving forward. I discussed with Seismic and he is moving on so I'll be marking the team as Abandoned in just a moment. Let me know if you know of other managers looking to take on a team. As someone noted below, the drop/keeper deadline is January 31.
-
I'm still waiting on him to respond to my message from May 8th. 🤞
-
Not trying to be mean but that team was not close to hitting the limits for games played or innings pitched, finished with only 28 pts, didn’t do arbitration, and has not checked in for 4 months. Ottoneu is supposed to be a year round league and we should try and find someone who can commit to that? I get that it’s not a cash prize league but it’d be cool to interact with all the owners for trades and such.. I’ve enjoyed this league and most owners are on the ball so I’m not upset, just sayin..
-
Hey guys, sorry been a little MIA myself but should be much more active after mid-January. Seismic is an IRL friend so let me check in on him and see what’s up.
