Welcome to the league! I believe that you'll really enjoy the friendly competition here. We will eventually set you up on Couch Managers for our slow draft Starting in early March.
As far as cuts go, make sure you go to the cut players tab on your team page. You must make all your cuts at once. Please don't cut players individually.

It is automatic. But also literal: make all your cuts at once.

Disregard my previous question, I just noticed that the free round cut process seems to be automated.
-
Hello everyone, I'm going to take over the "No owner" team. I just wanted to know how we handle the free cut round?
Do I proceed with my cuts as usual? I should be able to pay and make my cuts by the end of the day or later tomorrow morning.
Playball!
-
No Owner has been abandoned. We will be looking for a replacement Owner. That owner will be allowed a round of penalty free cuts when they take over the team.
Everyone else is paid up and we will soon be getting ready for our slow draft.
Exciting times!

A couple teams have not renewed for this upcoming season. Please be aware that there have been some issues with teams trying to renew. They are eventually fixed but it may not happen immediately. Please don't wait until Wednesday to renew. Thank you.

Remember guys, one week left to renew for 2024 season and to finalize your roster before the draft.
Some might say that championships are won or loss this week.

Hey everybody, we are about one week away from the BIG Deadline. January 31 marks the league renewal date. I hope everybody plans on returning. If not, please let us know.
January 31 is also the penalty free cut Deadline and the last day to pull off a trade.
Couch Managers is just about full ahead of our slow draft. Again, if anyone is having and problems with our slow draft please let us know.
Thanks everyone!

Great, the auction page is filling...thanks everyone! I am changing user names to Team Names, which will make it easier for me to sync rosters when I import the. So far, I changed Greco to Tunnicliff Inn, mroschew to Darnestown Demons, and bcavehill4 to Vaas' Pirates. Let me know if those were incorrect.

I've joined the Couch Managers site now, thanks Sandpipers! Quick question - I see that the settings currently have a budget setting of $260 - is that a setting you'll be able to change? Thanks!
-
I've also never co-managed a team. I would imagine the two managers just need to share the Couch Managers login information and discuss amongst yourselves about who to target and what to bid. Given that we'll have several hours to bid on each player that is being auctioned I don't imagine it will be much of an issue. (In the slow draft I just did, each player being auctioned was up for 12 hours, and then when a new winning bid was placed, the timer reset to 8 hours.)
-
I can look later. Other than sharing an account and password, so that all managers are logged in and can make changes in the draft room, I am not certain there is an answer.
I guess just lots of emailing to discuss draft strategy. How do you typically handle an auction? I have never co-managed, and am uncertain how it works.

Perhaps either the Sandpipers or Sound and Fury can answer this. I'm sure it can be done.

How do we do this with two managers?
-
Hey everybody. Sandpipers has set up our draft on Couch Managers. Please use the link provided earlier to set up your account. Rosters can be downloaded as soon as February 1 and we will be ready to go. The key is to familiarize everyone with the mechanics so there are no issues once we set a draft date and are ready to begin.

Thanks, chefboyrD63.
I imported rosters for the three of us who are in the auction already, just as proof that I understand what to do. Everything looks good for my roster.
This will have to be repeated...but it appears as though the roster import works well.

Here is the link to the auction Sandpipers created on Couch Managers:
https://www.couchmanagers.com/auctions/?auction_id=668
enter the password Sandpipers posted (syK7bnV) after you click "Join" in one of the slots on the upper left
-
Sorry, it was not clear, the website we are using for the auction is Couch Managers.

If everyone wants to start logging into couch managers to populate the auction, that would be helpful. Not having run one before, I am still uncertain how to set the draft order, for instance. Or maybe that does not matter because we have simultaneous auctions.
Anyway, the auction password is: syK7bnV
Be sure to use your team name when you register for the auction.
Once the keeper deadline has passed, I will be able to update our rosters for the auction.

First week of March works for me for a slow draft. My username on the Ottoneu Slack is chefboyarD63. Direct messaging me on there is the fastest way to get added to the Slack.

Hello everyone.
Thanks to all the teams that have renewed for 2024. Most teams have done that. Remember the date to renew by is January 31.
Slow auction draft on Couch Managers. 1st week of March?

Happy to help! I believe that link below should work but if you're still having trouble, you can message me your Slack username or email address that's associated with the Ottoneu Slack and I can add you that way.

The Sound and the Fury was able to bail me out. The new channel is 27 out conglomerate 788. Please refer to the previous message for the invite.

Happy New Years to you all.
Please remember that Jan. 31 is the trade deadline and most important it is the league renewal date. I few people have already renewed for 2024. I encourage you all to do so asap. If it is your intention not to return please let us know asap as well. There a quite a few abandoned teams on the Claim Teams page and I would prefer to not wait until the last minute to have a full league. Your cooperation here is much appreciated and it only helps keep this ..

I hope everyone had a great Christmas and are looking forward to the new year and new baseball season. We are going to go with the slow auction this season. Sandpipers has volunteered to set it up for us. I believe (and hope) we will all enjoy this process. How does the first weekend of March sound for when we kick this off?
