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!

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.

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!

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.
-
A reminder that we need to abandon Seismic.

Chiming in to ask about abandoning Seismic, would love to get an active owner in there sooner rather than later.
-
Ditto on Seismic. Commish, can we move on and mark abandoned?
-
I assume Seismic is abandoned. Hasn't been in Otto since September 9.

🚨🚨 Let the trading begin 🚨🚨
Skenes is on the block
-
Seismic, are you there??
-
I'm for a slow draft also
-
Welcome! And I also would prefer slow draft.
-
Welcome to the new folks! Loved the slow draft last year, so count my vote for couchmanagers again

Welcome to another new owner! I'll say it again: you have two weeks to do arbitration. Please let us know if you have any questions.
-
Hi all, just claimed Sl8ter Boi. I like the idea of a slow draft. It's been a few years since I did an Ottoneu league, and I'm excited to get back into it.
-
Welcome new people! I just wanted to cast my vote in favor of the slow draft again.
-
Welcome to both of our new managers! I think the couchmanagers slow draft was a big success last year, so I'm definitely interested in doing that again unless there are objections.
-
Hmm good call on Sl8er. They also missed arb and cut deadlines last year and haven't paid for next season so I'm comfortable marking as abandoned.
-
Can we abandon Sl8ter Boi? The last activity on the team was in April. And Seismic, could you let us know if you're still in the league? You haven't checked in since September?
