• I also do not care for the condensed week of games. Seems obvious to just combine this week and next week (8 instead of 7 days of games) into one H2H week. Or better yet, give me my full season points league and get rid of H2H altogether.
  
  Anyway, jam those players in this week and next and good luck all!

• I hate these short weeks in ottoneu head to head. I'm starting a ton of $1 filler players to get to 30 games.
  Brickowski for 3 at Feb 12, 2024 12:06 PM
• B. Miller looking like a great get for the future. At least he should stay relatively cheap for another year or two.

• I voted against this trade, although I'm willing to change my vote if I get some consideration thrown my way.

• Did Reaves just call it a season?
  CGT at Feb 9, 2024 5:51 PM
• And the nba trade deadline passes, didn’t seem like any trades that should affect things too much. I was worried Tyus Jones was going to get moved into a more reserve role somewhere but looks like stays put. With Gafford moved, Bagley’s minutes might shoot up if he stays healthy. Otherwise a lot of backups and depth got moved.

• Oh my god FVV. Worst trade ever.

• I like the H2H aspect of things. I think there are always trade offs to make in assembling any fantasy system and I enjoy this ottoneu format so overall I'm happy with it. The rules page states that leagues can have 1,2, or 3 divisions. I just propose that we move to 1. If there was some schedule difference between divisions then it's fine, but in this case it just seems arbitrary. Publish or Parish is at least a good team (though he's without Embiid now). It could have easily been the case that he was also in the Jordan Division and then we'd have two 7-8 teams battling for a playoff spot.

• Big comeback win for Brickowski last week over Publish or Parish, congrats! 21 Andre Ingrams vs I Think You Should Reaves with the crucial match-up this week. Best of luck, all!
  CGT at Feb 5, 2024 2:11 PM
• probably for the same dumb reasons we're forced to play H2H on a weekly schedule when it makes no sense in a points league, or have to force 30 games into the 3 short weeks of scheduled games, or finish the season a couple weeks before the actual season ends or guys are assigned positions based off the preseason rosters sent out by the teams and data provider rather than what they actually start or play during the season (I get what they play would be tough to quantify, but it's quite easy to set it like baseball based off starting lineups, 5 games started at a position gives that player eligibility at that position).
  
  It should be a season long points league like baseball with no playoffs. Presuming Niv doesn't give us that option this offseason though, I'll put up a vote and see if we want to go to one division which is fine by me. I don't know why divisions were even offered if the schedule remains balanced.
  CGT at Feb 5, 2024 1:38 PM
• Why does this league have two divisions? We don't play our division-mates anymore than anybody else. I play everybody twice except the teams I was assigned last in the schedule which are Walden Two (who is not in my division) and Brickowski for 3 (who is in my division). I play them each once. It seems like we're just randomly gifting Publish or Parish a playoff spot for no reason while four other teams battle it out for three spots. If the argument is "well, we set it up that way and so that's the way it is," I can't really argue with that, but nothing about the league schedule seems to force things to stay that way. At the very least, we should go to a single division in the future.

  CGT at Feb 2, 2024 5:03 PM
• It does in fact do that…not sure the benefit other than keeping things tidy. The game wouldn’t count against you anyway since they didn’t play.
  CGT at Jan 31, 2024 11:44 PM
• I guess I never realized this - if a player is out but you have them in your lineup as active, does the system automatically move them to your bench? I think that happened with me tonight with Jokic

  They moved it to end of February….which makes way more sense to have it after NBA trade deadline. I think it should be the All-Star game weekend when we’re all bored, but it is what it is.
  CGT at Jan 31, 2024 1:45 PM
• Deadline day. I clicked on the rules page to see if it's midnight or what and there it says the deadline is the last day of February so that wasn't helpful. I'd assume midnight eastern, but who knows? If you want to make a deadline trade feel free to send something over or ping me in the chat. I'm always up for trade talks.

  5 good teams left, 4 playoff spots and Publish will get in as division winner.

• Hello, I just took over Scalabrine Squad. New to Ottoneu bball but not to fantasy bball or Ottoneu so hoping the learning curve isn't too crazy! Looking forward to trying to finish out the season with at least a win or two. As I start to dive into the team I'll be open to trading but I don't envision tearing the team completely down. If there is anyone you have been after feel free to send over a message.
  Patience at Dec 18, 2023 1:15 PM
• Right? I told my guys they could play at half speed this week, but they didn’t listen.
  
  Hopefully Ant-Man is back and healthy next week for our battle and Giannis puts up another 100 pt night :)

• New games for tomorrow and Friday have been added if you want to adjust your lineups...
  CGT at Dec 6, 2023 1:22 PM
• My understanding of how this plays out is that the winners of the quarterfinal games, will play in the semis on Thursday, Dec 7th and those games will be added to the lineup pages once the games are completed and you can get those players into your lineups then if you have any. The losers of the quarterfinals will have games scheduled for Friday, December 8th and you'll be able to add them into your lineups. The in-season tourney final is NOT considered a regular season game and you will not be able to use any players from that game on Sunday.

  Not having TWolves, Thunder, Magic or Nuggets for this in/season tourney isn’t a great look
