• how do i start a new auction like the current one for David Hernandez?

  Maikel Franco Allstars on March 28, 2011 4:42 PM

• Also, we can now set our lineups. I hate that we're a few teams short this year, but ottoneu has enough roster-balancing rules to allow us to get new teams up to speed in the offseason.

  All Black Balls on March 28, 2011 4:22 PM

• I've ended the draft, so I'd expect you can do blind bids to fill the rest of your roster if you want.

  All Black Balls on March 28, 2011 4:19 PM

• ....season anyway. I would love to End the Draft Early though, but I will leave that up to you.

  Maikel Franco Allstars on March 28, 2011 2:09 PM

• cool, I tried to start the draft, but it just said "Error: getting teams online". Probably because I was the only one in there. I don't need to finish the draft for my final 4 players, I can just fill those in whatever way you add players during the

  Maikel Franco Allstars on March 28, 2011 2:09 PM

• Once you're done, go ahead and end the draft (there is an "end draft early" button. I expect that we'll then be able to adjust our rosters. I have not heard anything from those who missed the draft.

  All Black Balls on March 28, 2011 9:48 AM

• Nightman - you are now a commissioner. One of the many perks that comes with the title is that you have the ability to start and stop the draft. That way you can fill out your lineup.

  All Black Balls on March 28, 2011 9:42 AM

• Don't forget Vicente Padilla.

• Eephus is only like the coolest and probably rarest pitch ever. The only two recent/currentish pitchers to throw it are Orlando Hernandez and I think Miguel Batista throws one. Casey Fossum had one as well as Randy Johnson I believe.

  Maikel Franco Allstars on March 28, 2011 12:52 AM

• where does the name " Eephus" come from?

  Italian breakfast club on March 27, 2011 11:21 PM

• i was just going to wait for everything to be done and over and then fill it out, since those last 4 spots don't matter much. My computer was just lagging terribly all throughout the draft on both days and I couldn't tolerate after Hour 7, haha.

  Maikel Franco Allstars on March 27, 2011 7:48 PM

• I'm waiting to hear back from the guys who missed the draft, but I'm guessing we'll just be short in year 1.

  All Black Balls on March 27, 2011 6:40 PM

• Nightman - If you decide that you want to finish out your lineup (this goes for anyone), let me know and I'll unpause the draft for you.

  All Black Balls on March 27, 2011 6:39 PM

• ....so...what now?

  Maikel Franco Allstars on March 27, 2011 5:35 PM

• yes, at 8 am pacific

• we draft

  Maikel Franco Allstars on March 26, 2011 2:59 AM

• I'll be there

  A Shot in the Arm on March 25, 2011 1:51 PM

• available.

  All Black Balls on March 25, 2011 9:48 AM

• R.J. is not going to make the draft. He might have a friend who can draft for him. If you know of someone who could help him out, should his friend not be available, please let him know. I'd hoped I knew someone who could pinch-draft, but they aren't

  All Black Balls on March 25, 2011 9:48 AM

• up and you're free to vote against it. :)

  All Black Balls on March 25, 2011 9:48 AM

• PLEASE READ THIS: I want to amend something that I've been thinking about. If we are missing people for the first draft, those in attendance may vote to draft without them. The vote to draft must be unanimous. If you've got a problem with that, just show

  All Black Balls on March 25, 2011 9:48 AM

• Just a quick reminder that we're drafting tomorrow, Saturday the 26th at 8:00 a.m. Pacific. We'll draft for about 3 hours and then resume again the following day at 8:00 a.m. Pacific.

  All Black Balls on March 25, 2011 9:48 AM

• i think major and minor league players are all auctioned out of the same pool.

  All Black Balls on March 22, 2011 9:42 AM

• on the second day of the draft are players who are in the minor leagues "free"?

  Italian breakfast club on March 17, 2011 8:08 AM

• wildcats, rosters are set daily. complete rules are here: http://ottoneu.fangraphs.com/support

  All Black Balls on March 16, 2011 10:38 AM

• no one has ever mentioned if the rosters will be set daily or weekly?

  Italian breakfast club on March 16, 2011 9:29 AM

• is there any way i can test my the draft system on my computer? I dont know how it will fare, and I was wondering if I could test it, similar to Yahoo!'s test feature

  Aaron Judge's Tooth Gap on March 16, 2011 3:30 AM

• All I know for you to do is email leagues@ottoneu.com or help@ottoneu.com. They've been very fast and helpful when I've had questions so I bet they can fix you up.

  All Black Balls on March 9, 2011 12:38 PM

• Does anyone know how I can change the e-mail accoutn attached to me? I changed it on FanGraphs but it is still the same in here. I no longer can access this account.

  Maikel Franco Allstars on March 8, 2011 10:01 PM

• right on, can't wait

  Maikel Franco Allstars on March 3, 2011 3:19 PM

• Yep, you're it! We're drafting the 26 at 8:00a.m. Pacific and will potentially pause and resume on the 27th at the same time.

  All Black Balls on March 3, 2011 9:32 AM

• I believe I am the final member of this wolf pack, is the draft the 26th?

  All Black Balls on March 1, 2011 12:06 PM

• yea I'm in afghanistan, and with my schedule being constantly fluid, i'm not 100% sure i'll make it for the exact day. That said, if it's a multiple day thing, I should be able to participate in most of the parts of the draft

  Aaron Judge's Tooth Gap on February 25, 2011 1:55 PM

• wildcats, here's more info on the draft: http://www.fangraphs.com/fantasy/index.php/ottoneu-how-to-the-auction-draft/

  All Black Balls on February 25, 2011 12:06 PM

• with a significant difference being that there will not be computer AI's drafting for you should you leave. (this is an assumption on my part)

  All Black Balls on February 25, 2011 12:02 PM

• wildcats, my understanding is that the auction is probably very similar to your mock experience if you did it on yahoo or similar.

  All Black Balls on February 25, 2011 12:01 PM

• is this draft going to be computer generated, as one sees in Yahoo, CBS etc? Sorry to ask, but I have never participated in an auction draft, except the mock type.
