Welcome to the league Proofs.

Welcome!

Hello. Picked up Choo Choo. I have teams in 4 x 4 and points. Happy to round them out with this one! I love a challenge...

Love it! Let me know if you have any questions
-
Thanks for the warm welcome! I'm excited to play ottoneu baseball. I've been an avid fantasy baseball player for the last 15 years. I did my first ottoneu league last year, basketball, and loved it. As an Os fan, I'm hoping to channel Mark Elias and rapidly rise to the top of the standings next year.

REMINDER: Please add your arbitration $ by Nov 14.
Also Choo Choo Dykstra's managers haven't checked the league in months and didn't respond to emails I sent, so I've marked the team as abandoned. If you know someone who wants to take over the team, let me know!
-
Welcome to the new owner of Papi
-
Looks like we got a new owner for Papi's team - welcome!
-
All the best Papi!!
-
Sorry to hear that! Not letting us down at all - best wishes. Be well!
-
Please abandon this team. I was victim of a stroke on Sep 15, so I will have to quit my part time job losing my Ottoneu spending money, anyway don't have the same energy to manage so many leagues, will be quiting many leagues. Sorry to let you down guys, thanks.

Wally took over a share of the lead on 4/24 and solo lead on 4/26, and after that, no one really got close...
-
Congrats Wally on a great season! Led it almost wire to wire!
-
Congrats Wally.
-
Congrats Wally and great season all. Enjoy the MLB playoffs.
-
Thanks Slama. Agreed on the cluster. Looking forward to an active offseason

Congrats Wally! We had a good cluster of competitive teams this year but yours was clearly above the rest! Already ready for next season to start
-
Hey everyone, sorry for my inactivity. Work and life got really busy the last few months. I'll be back next season ready to go!
-
Thanks Reggie! It was a strong run but we just ran out of gas, would have been tough to compete in this next round with Darvish out and Ohtani not pitching. We had a lot of fun and were excited to make it further than last year!
-
Congrats to Chocobos and Moogles who made it to the final 8 of the OPL and cashed for $400. I am sure they were hoping for more, but a great showing from our league!
-
Trade deadline this Thursday. Time to make those last minute deals
-
And DEFINITELY a record set for most consecutive auctions won by one team :)
-
I think it has to be - could start a new team with number of guys out there now
-
Is this the most auctions we’ve had at one time?

Just seeing this. Draft definitely didn't lock anyone out last year for missing a nom. I don't see any issue with just skipping nom's if you wanted. Like Wally, it sometimes just comes down to finding guys fast enough to nominate. If anything, it's a disadvantage because other people are nominating at $1 and your only choice would be to go to $2 if you wanted them (i assume $1 guys is mostly where this comes into play)
-
Draft Day tomorrow!. Course I will be a JAFO for this.
-
3 Seems fair.
-
Sounds like a great plan commish. I'm excited to get this draft underway, last one before Opening Day. MLB baseball is almost here!
-
I think we can roughly stick to a 3 strikes and you're out, but not going to be dogmatic about it. I'll also try pausing the clock at one second if it seems like the manager is just searching for someone to nominate. We can talk it through in the chat while it's happening. Excited for the draft - 4 days away!
-
I missed a bunch last year, not on purpose, I just couldn’t find guys to nominate fast enough. I think a limit is fair if that’s what we all decide on. Seems like work for slama to track though

Yeah I'll definitely allow anyone back in for missing a nomination. I think the setting is in place to keep someone from doing it repeatedly. 3 misses seems fair
-
Shit happens and it's pretty hard to prove any reason evoqued by owner (kids, connection, too much beer, etc.), a lot of leagues I'm in say you are allowed three misses (whatever the reason), after that you are done and out of draft being blocked by Commish That's my two cents
-
It's a default setting in the draft room. May not have noticed it last year if the commish unlocked anybody that missed a nomination regardless of reason as soon as they were locked out and didn't penalize those that had multiple missed nominations. It will be up to the commish to decide how they want to run the draft room.
-
Thanks - sorry I misunderstood how the auction works (it was all new to me last year). I don’t recall teams getting shut down for passing. I am fine with how the system works as Mississippi explains it. I would then request that if a team does not have a “valid” reason for passing, they not be allowed back into the auction.
-
The system is already set to "lock" an owner out after the first nomination is missed. The commish can unlock the owner if this happens and the owner says something in the message area of the draft room. Being locked out means the owner will not be able to participate in bidding as well. It will be up to the commish as to whether an owner will be able to continue participating or decides that too many nominations have been missed and the owner is not allowed to continue in the draft.
-
Have 2 additional points on my auction rule proposal: 1) Okay with me if a team claims some type of “operator error” on an auction pass to not count it against the 2 skip limit. 2) As an alternative, I’m fine if we all make a “gentlemen’s agreement” not to routinely pass to game the system rather than imposing a rule. Thanks.
-
Have an auction rule proposal. Propose: After a team skips 2 times in nominating a player to start an auction, team is considered “done” for draft (commissioner shuts team down). Reason: Prevent team from continually passing to “wait out” the league so they can later nominate players & get them for $1 because no one else is participating. This happened last year and I don’t think the practice is in keeping with the spirit of having a competitive auction with multiple teams participating.
-
I'll be open for last minute offers until around 11pm est. After that I'll be doing a final once over the roster and start making cuts.
-
REMINDER, in case anyone needs it: Today is the cut deadline!!
-
Ditto for bo bichette but inexpensive offense
-
If you’d like to lock down Tatis, I’m looking to move him for inexpensive pitching.

Open for business if anyone is looking for trades before the cut deadline.
-
Great! I believe everyone has confirmed Mar 27 works as a draft date. Mark your calendars!
-
I am available on any of the days that have been posted as potential draft days. Thanks.
-
yes

3/27 is good. But all the dates listed in slamma’s poll post could work at this point. Later in the month and Monday are both preferable.

Any of those dates should work for me.
-
I think I can currently make 8pm work on any of those days.
-
Right now 3/27 is the only day everyone has said yes too
-
They all work at the moment for me.
