• Dmd you man, I am kinda dumb at Slack haha

  Waxahachie Swaps on March 20, 2018 7:40 PM

• I've just sent an invite to ottoneu slack for everyone in the league. Figured it was easier. Once you get on there hit me up (Steve Klein) with your username and I'll invite you to the private league channel

• I can't seem to get anywhere with slack without an invitation...Any chance you could email me one when you can? Thanks

  Yorkshire Monarchs on March 19, 2018 7:01 PM

• invite sent

  Otto Thirteen on March 19, 2018 4:43 PM

• I was just reading the forums, and it looks like you can send me an invite. This jives with my previous experience with Slack and needing an invite to join an existing team.

  Bases Loaded on March 19, 2018 4:40 PM

• There is a “create an account” link which takes me to a page which only accepts one of the two email domains I mentioned earlier.

• https://ottoneu.slack.com/ Do you get a sign-up screen when you go here?

  Transnational Cog on March 19, 2018 4:29 PM

• Should be able to register with any email address

  Otto Thirteen on March 19, 2018 4:28 PM

• This is what I see: “Don't have an @ottoneu.com or @dspipeandsteel.com email address? Contact your Workspace Administrator for an invitation.”

  Bases Loaded on March 19, 2018 4:25 PM

• Nah just need to register on slack and join the Ottoneu slack group

  Otto Thirteen on March 19, 2018 4:09 PM

• Do we need an @ottoneu.com email address to join the ottoneu Slack?

  Bases Loaded on March 19, 2018 4:08 PM

• Guys I've started a private slack channel for our league on ottoneu.slack.com - dm me on there (SteveK) and I'll add you.

  Otto Thirteen on March 19, 2018 3:26 PM

• Cheers

  Roy Kent's Optimism on March 19, 2018 12:21 PM

• @Rays - done! You should be back in the game now... :0)

  Chin Music on March 19, 2018 12:20 PM

• Dear Commissioner(s), I have locked myself out of the draft. Could you let me back in please.

  Roy Kent's Optimism on March 19, 2018 12:07 PM

• Good work yesterday everyone - that was a lot of fun! Just confirming that we will all come back together for more drafting on Wednesday 21st March at 4pm EST (that's 8pm GMT to all the UK crew). See you then!

  Otto Thirteen on March 19, 2018 11:47 AM

• The Waco Kids's trade block has been updated!

  Workman’s Comp on March 18, 2018 11:02 PM

• Draft Day Tomorrow! Just confirming the time as 3pm EST / 7pm GMT. Is everyone aware of how the draft works? You can access the draft screen from the league home page. I'd advise you to check it out before the auction starts - you can populate your watch list in advance. Here's a decent YouTube video that explains the interface in detail (https://youtu.be/cZxgR25aJaY). Feel free to post questions here or dm either me or Phil (Chin Music) with any queries. Not long to go now!

  Otto Thirteen on March 17, 2018 12:58 PM

• Yeah lets chat it out. We'll need a 2nd time

  Waxahachie Swaps on March 15, 2018 12:51 AM

• One brief update from me. We don't have a consensus following the doodle poll on a placeholder date/time for a second draft session. In which case I suggest we see how we get on on Sunday and if needs be thrash out on a possible time for a second session via the draft chat. If we're all as fast as Billy Hamilton we may not need one, but I'm a bit Bartolo Colón these days :)

  Chin Music on March 13, 2018 9:23 PM

• Oh! I see! :)

  Waxahachie Swaps on March 13, 2018 3:20 PM

• Yeah just to confirm - draft day is Sunday 18th March at 3pm EST (7pm GMT). Just trying to find out availability in case we need to have a second session in addition to the 18th.

  Otto Thirteen on March 13, 2018 1:42 PM

• @Montreal Mystery - I think March 18th is happening and that this is about timing for a potential part 2 in case we don't finish the draft in one sitting.

  Rise of the Robo-Umps on March 13, 2018 1:38 PM

• so is MArch 18th draft officially not happening?

  Waxahachie Swaps on March 13, 2018 1:36 PM

• Saturday and Sunday are good anytime, weekdays I would need after 5pm Denver time (same time zone I have here in Canada)

  Waxahachie Swaps on March 13, 2018 1:35 PM

• Any time on Sunday, or weekday evenings (US Central time) would work for me.

  Bases Loaded on March 11, 2018 3:08 PM

• I'd prefer an earlier start if possible, especially if we expect the draft to last a while. Could we either start earlier or have a few shorter but later drafts?

  Yorkshire Monarchs on March 11, 2018 4:47 AM

• If everyone fills completes the doodle linked below then at least we get an idea of what the best day is and we can go from there. Chapeau to Lawn Mauer and Waco Kids for being the first respondents!

  Otto Thirteen on March 11, 2018 4:24 AM

• I'm happy with a 9pm GMT (5pm EST) start on a weeknight if it is just for a couple of hours. Wouldn't want to go much later though.

  Otto Thirteen on March 11, 2018 4:21 AM

• Everything I’ve read about initial Ottoneu auctions is that they can take a long time so I’d support splitting into 2. No preference as to times although would hope they avoid working hours for obvious reasons!

  Magister Quaerens Otium on March 11, 2018 3:47 AM

• @Lawn Mauer - that would put it at a 9pm+ start for those of us that are based in the UK (I think 5/12). Not a problem for me but I'll let others chip in with their thoughts. Perhaps if we break the back of the auction next Sunday, a 9pm weekday start would be easier for any fellow countrymen who are early risers ;0)

  Chin Music on March 10, 2018 8:24 PM

• I think we're all ottoneu rookies here so if anyone's after some decent resources ahead of the draft, I'd recommend the slack group Adios Pelota pointed to below (https://ottoneu.slack.com/). Fangraphs (https://www.fangraphs.com/fantasy/) and https://www.smartfantasybaseball.com also has some decent posts on auction prep; ditto the Ottoneu community forum (http://community.ottoneu.com). You can also access Player Stats and Average Salaries from the Players section of our league site on Ottoneu

  Chin Music on March 10, 2018 8:18 PM

• Any chance part 2 could be after 5pm EST on the weekday options?

  Rise of the Robo-Umps on March 10, 2018 8:16 PM

• Hi everyone, commish Phil here. Hope everyone's as excited as I am about the auction next Sunday, and about the forthcoming season in general (#gosox!). In all likelihood we'll have to split the auction up into two sessions: the first on Sunday March 18th @ 7pm GMT (3pm EST); the second tbc. If everyone could kindly let us know their availability for round two via this doodle link it would be most appreciated: https://doodle.com/poll/2vfv3tw8ndnbvhp6. Hopefully we can find a time that suits all.

  Chin Music on March 10, 2018 8:11 PM

• Full house! That's the league full now. Welcome to one and all. Really looking forward to the auction on Sunday 18th. Be sure to check out the slack channel (https://ottoneu.slack.com) for loads of resources, tools and support. I've found the community there more active and useful than the official ottoneu one. If anyone has any questions about anything don't hesitate to get in touch with either me or co-commish Chin Music. LET'S PLAY BALL!

  Otto Thirteen on March 10, 2018 4:58 AM

• Welcome to the league!

  Otto Thirteen on March 9, 2018 4:32 PM

• Hi all. Loving the thought of an inaugural draft at a reasonable hour!

  Transnational Cog on March 9, 2018 4:31 PM

• Hey man, welcome to the league.

  Otto Thirteen on March 9, 2018 3:23 PM

• Hey all, I just joined the league

  Rise of the Robo-Umps on March 9, 2018 3:21 PM

• See - if you build it, they will come.

  Monroe Doctrine on March 9, 2018 2:30 PM

• Thanks. I'm Looking forward to a fun season.

  Bases Loaded on March 9, 2018 2:28 PM

• Cool. That's great, and welcome.
