there was an issue on the Couchmanagers import for Jose Ferrer - Carp won the guy on the Nationals, but the import file gave him the TOR A+ guy - i've fixed that now. not sure what'll happen to the Ferrer up for auction right now, but Carp gets Ferrer (WSH) for $1
-
Draft is complete and rosters are set for the beginning of the season. We made it! Thanks everyone, don’t forget to set lineups before opening-ish day on Tuesday!
-
Draft has restarted, good luck!
-
The site reloaded back to last Sunday where those auctions never existed. I can put all those guys up for auction, but I can’t bid back up to Thursday prices on behalf of every team that was leading, so I don’t have a way to do it. We’re starting fresh on all those in progress auctions, and clock will be 12/6 with “sleep mode” for a short period overnight (bids can still go but clock stops)
-
So will in-progress auctions (Soto, Cole, etc.) resume at some semblance of where they were midday Thursday? Or does CM not support that?
-
completed auctions (i.e. $35 Roki) have now been added to rosters in CM based on Seams's screenshot. please let me know if anything looks off there, otherwise the show goes on in the morning!
-
Glad we someone was able to get a screenshot of it. I think using that is perfect.

I can confirm that I won Goldy for $10. Thanks Miami and others for your tireless (tiring?) efforts.
-
I don't think I won any auctions yet, but my team looks accurate on CM right now.
-
I trust ya’ll and am very appreciative of Miami and others who have helped! Good leagues are hard to find these days.
-
Seams was miraculously able to pull a screenshot from his iPad which has what we need. I will manually add those keepers to CM tonight and will resume tomorrow morning with the plan I emailed unless I hear otherwise
-
I don't have screenshots but Weather's numbers look very accurate. I think Machado was $28, Golden $10, Jansen $15. Also in progress were Luis Robert which I started but can't recall high bid team or number though I think weather at $15? I'm OK with starting over or if we are able to agree with completed auctions, finishing those.
-
Small matter on the completed auctions. We need the price AND the team that won them lol
-
Thanks goodness. I just clicked on something and all of the sudden the rosters were populated. I thought blew up the site.
-
WOO spreadsheet import was fixed - rosters are current through what's in ottoneu - Fred you're all good, no need to help on that part
-
Thanks cannons I have added you now but no rush. Jansen $17 is right, Machado I want to say $27 but we can probably further confirm that. Otherwise none of those results seem more than a dollar off but I’m hoping someone grabbed a screenshot or spreadsheet and is 100% confident
-
I can help import players tonight.
-
I think I remember the first 12: rotoball has Seager $42, Machado $27 or $28, Smith $9. JJ has Tatis $61 and Sasaki $35. I have Acuna $49, Woebegone has Goldy $9 or $10, and Miami has Jansen ($17?). In progress are Soto (Seams, $64), Cole (Whippets $30 or $31), Freeman ($34 -- maybe JJ?), and Nola (me $22).
Since the day 2 stuff had barely started, maybe we reset to that point?
-
add'l note forgot to mention: spreadsheet import is broken again, i will take a volunteer to help import some players, otherwise i don't mind ripping through it for like an hour when time permits. sorry y'all, this is unfortunate for sure, but i am looking forward to drafting again!
-
Site's up and running - it was reverted back to the status of last Sunday which means it's as if this week's drafting did not happen. i can import rosters tonight but i do not have the results of the completed auctions. if anyone does have those (acuna, seager, machado, jansen, w. smith, prob some others i'm missing) i feel those are valid to be included as results, however, if we don't have those.. back to square one.. please plan for draft to restart tomorrow morning (9AM ET (spring forward!))
-
Latest update seems like good news on site returning soon, but bad news on restoring where we were at in the auction. If the site comes back where we were then we’ll proceed, if not, we’ll need to see where to revert back to because I don’t know if we saved results for completed auctions, and auctions in progress might need to reset
-
Shorter clock and run 2-3 nominations per team after a couple days (I still wanna give the stars their time to run down the auction since so much money gets tied up there). I like that 12/6 idea with some pause overnight. I’ll see what options are once site returns
-
We could buy back some time by switching to (say) 12h/6h timing and adding a 6h overnight pause. All overnight auctions would still effectively be 18/12, but it would make it possible for auctions started at 8am to end at 8pm, not 2am.
Thoughts?
-
Cannons, I think to speed up the draft there would be more auctions allowed to start rather than reduce the amount of time of each auction. This way more auctions can end while still giving everyone enough opportunity to bid.
-
👍
-
I agree with the consensus; wait on CM, speed up
-
I am on board for waiting too. What are you thinking the new amount of time a player is on an auction to speed things up?
-
I am in favor of waiting for CM and speeding up the draft.
-
I am also in favor of waiting on CM and speeding up the draft.

I'd also favor waiting on CM, and resuming at a faster pace. I'd like the Japan games to count even if we're a little short of our full rosters when they happen.
-
I'm fine with waiting out CM, it sounds like we can easily restart active auctions when CM went down. I would like to try and finish before the Japan series so we can start accruing stats. I don't think I have any players from those teams but missing even 2 games for those teams with several high dollar guys can have an impact.
-
Big update on the status of CouchManagers was posted by Niv this evening to the forums post linked below. We are likely looking at another couple days of delays at the worst, but i feel medium comfortable that CM will again be fixed, and the results and status thus far of our slow draft will not be lost. I'll listen to feedback from the league, but im inclined to again wait this out, and either speed up the slow draft upon return, or have the draft continue through Japan series (but set lineups)
-
best status on everything seems to be happening here if you want to stay in the loop, i imagine we'll get a clear picture here about whether or not we're gonna be able to complete this draft in the couchmanagers room or not: https://community.ottoneu.com/t/couch-managers-down-3-2-2025/15240/25
-
Ordeal*
-
We’ll see how long this goes and if clock is even running while down but yea we’ll get it sorted out if this is like a 3+ hour ordeL
-
Not if I’m winning. :)
-
Same here. Do we pause current auctions?
-
I see CM is back down, I'm unable to open it and I saw a message on the forum saying others are affected.
-
Been having trouble hitting CM over the last hour or so. Just me or anyone else having trouble?
-
The slow draft will begin in roughly 30 minutes. this is not a drill!
-
My team looks good on Coach (not sure how good it looks heading into the auction). Sorry you guys had to enter our players in manually, but I really appreciate the effort.
-
JJ and I have manually imported rosters. did a couple checks and we're looking set for tomorrow morning, but please let me know if anything looks off from your own reviews. we're good to go as long as the site is ready to have us over there.. draft starts at 9AM sharp tomorrow!
-
i'm on now actually - getting a rhythm, feel free to grab whichever 6 is easiest for you.. and thank you in advance for $1 Felix Bautista!
-
Still no import luck? I can start importing the bottom 6 teams if you want to do the top 6. We can each give ourselves an extra cool player or two that way. ;)
-
Thanks, JJ - there is a fun limitation that i can only have one co-manager of the draft in CM, but i can change who that co-manager is! I have granted that ability to you, please don't grab more than 6 teams if you decide to get started, because there's still the chance this gets resolved at a decent hour this evening and renders your/our manual efforts useless, but at this point (just checked, still not working) i'm game to do whatever possible to be ready to draft in the AM
-
Thanks, Miami, we appreciate your efforts to get this done! Let me know if I can help, I know importing rosters must suck. I don’t mind splitting it up and doing some manual entry if that helps.
-
Update: Been in contact w/ CM support today, he sees the issue, but is going to need til tonight to resolve. If I can't start the draft by 7pm ET tonight, I'll bump it to 9AM tomorrow and will have rosters setup tonight, one way or another. Thanks for the patience
-
Once I hear back from CM support, I will import ASAP, and the draft will start one hour from that point (i.e. if it's fixed at 9:45 AM, i'll start the draft at 10:45 AM, but i'm unclear on ETA other than the Ottoneu forums thread saying to expect full functionality by EOD today
-
Alright - unfortunate news this morning, but we are running into delays on importing rosters to the CouchManagers room. It seems to be one of the features not restored from this weekend's issues. I have e-mailed the help line there and will report back on ETA, but we can't start the draft until rosters are imported. The last resort is manually inputting all 300 keepers and salaries, which i'd estimate would take 1-2 hours. I don't plan to do this any earlier than tonight as a last resort
-
Thanks for navigating this issue and keeping everyone updated! Hopefully we get a smooth draft experience.
