  NYS at Dec 3, 2024 2:24 PM
• Wow that sucks! Sorry dude.

• I cut Guerendo on Saturday with CMC back and already having Jordan Mason as his handcuff. Now both are in IR. Wow.
  Springfield Atoms at Dec 3, 2024 1:03 AM
• Damn, that's brutal.
  Springfield Atoms at Nov 19, 2024 12:21 PM
• LOL, the second week in a row that I lost by less than a point haha. Just needed 8 more yards from Saquon haha.
  The Hurts Lockett at Nov 19, 2024 11:47 AM
• DRAFT IS TONIGHT. 8PM ET / 5PM PT
  Los Angeles Dons at Sep 2, 2024 4:26 PM
• Fellas…if you want to pick up a team in a SuperFlex league take a look at the claim teams page as there are several decent teams avail. Thx
  HU6KIES at Aug 28, 2024 7:28 PM
• Thank you to everyone for completing the draft availability doc. All twelve owners have indicated that they can draft MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 2 (Labor Day night). I've preemptively scheduled us for 5:00pm PT / 8:00pm ET. See you there.
  Los Angeles Dons at Aug 20, 2024 3:21 AM
• Just one team (The Skit) has yet to provide draft availability. Going to give them another 24 hours (after many days of emails), and then we’ll set the date. Standby
  Los Angeles Dons at Aug 19, 2024 12:55 PM
• Many thanks and no worries on Addison. Looking forward to the auction soon.
  New Guy in Town at Aug 15, 2024 7:17 PM
• Appreciate the draft flexibility. To bring you even/on par with other owners, you get one free round of cuts when you take over a team. It looks like we already did that, so you wouldn’t be able to cut Addison now.
  Los Angeles Dons at Aug 15, 2024 1:23 PM
• No worries — scheduling is always a challenge, especially for guys in multiple leagues. Also, if i can still do cuts, please cut Jordan Addison
  New Guy in Town at Aug 15, 2024 1:15 PM
• That’s the spirit, New Guy!
  Los Angeles Dons at Aug 15, 2024 1:10 PM
• I will make the draft work whatever day/time is selected
  New Guy in Town at Aug 15, 2024 1:08 PM
• It's saying I need to add some chrome extension. Then the extension is not available. I'm sick of trying to fill this out. I messaged the days I can't do it the other day. I prefer p.m.
  Chop Suey! at Aug 15, 2024 11:53 AM
• You click on the link:
  
  Draft Availability
  
  And then you change the color of the cells to reflect your availability. If you can't figure out how to change color of a cell, just copy and paste the green/yellow/red from someone else's cells.
  
  If this can't be done, send me your evening availability from August 20 - September 4.
  Los Angeles Dons at Aug 15, 2024 11:10 AM
• I can't figure out how to fill out that spread sheet.
  Chop Suey! at Aug 15, 2024 11:05 AM
• Yes, I’ve done Otto drafts from a phone before. It’s not as easy as an ESPN mobile draft, but it’s doable.
  Los Angeles Dons at Aug 14, 2024 10:31 PM
• Thanks, that's helpful. Also, do you know if the draft works on phones, or you have to be at a computer?
  The Hurts Lockett at Aug 14, 2024 9:10 PM
• Rather than including a bunch of start times in the doc, I just put a generic AM/PM. Once we get the general availability, we can zero in on a start time but assume AM = 10am-12pm ET start and PM = 7pm-9pm ET start.

• Hi where is the document located?
  Under New Management at Aug 14, 2024 2:33 PM
• For the draft availability sheet, what time of day would it be? I see AM and PM but not a start time (with time zone). Thanks!
  The Hurts Lockett at Aug 14, 2024 12:53 PM
• Looks like all teams are filled and renewed for 2024. Please fill out this draft availability document so that we can set up a time/date ASAP:

  Los Angeles Dons at Aug 14, 2024 10:35 AM
• I noticed you haven't set your draft date yet. Just a heads up, I have drafts on the 23rd, 25th, 30th, Sept 1st and Sept 3rd. Hope this helps out.
  Chop Suey! at Aug 13, 2024 11:45 AM
• Thank you.
  Chop Suey! at Aug 13, 2024 11:40 AM
• Done.
  Los Angeles Dons at Aug 13, 2024 11:17 AM
• Hey guys, I just picked up Fairhaven bulldogs. Can you please cut Quentin Johnson from my lineup? Thanks.
  Chop Suey! at Aug 13, 2024 11:15 AM
• Done.
  Los Angeles Dons at Aug 5, 2024 2:17 PM
• I'm still unable to make any roster cuts on my own so I'd appreciate help with cutting the following players: Miles Sanders, Juju, Dalvin Cook, Darren Waller, Gabe Davis, Jeff Wilson, Brandon Cook, OBJ, Tank Bigsby, Joe Flacco, Calvin Austin, Gardner Minshew, Irv Smith, Aidan O'Connell, and Keaontay Ingram.
  New Guy in Town at Aug 5, 2024 1:25 PM
• Welcome new manager!!
  The Hurts Lockett at Aug 3, 2024 8:49 PM
• Strange. Just message me your cuts and I can do them manually. Also, I’ll send around a draft availability Google doc and we will set a date close to the start of the NFL season.
  Los Angeles Dons at Aug 3, 2024 1:21 PM
• Many thanks LAD. Unfortunately I’m still not able to make any cuts but I’ll try again tomorrow to see if the update has taken effect. Also, when does the league do its auction? Thanks again for letting me join your league and looking forward to some fun this upcoming season.
  New Guy in Town at Aug 3, 2024 9:12 AM
• Welcome. Your team has been designated for penalty free cuts. You should be able to make the moves, but let me know if not.
  Los Angeles Dons at Aug 2, 2024 12:52 PM
• Hi everyone! I picked up one of the abandoned teams and it looks like I need to drop players in advance of the auction. Can someone help me do this? Thanks in advance for your help.
  New Guy in Town at Aug 2, 2024 12:47 PM
• I’m bailing out. Please abandon my team.
  Chop Suey! at Jul 19, 2024 8:01 PM
• Store is open. Everyone’s available.
  Chop Suey! at May 14, 2024 12:51 PM
• Hey all, I took over one of the vacant teams. Looking forward to building a team!
  Chop Suey! at May 14, 2024 11:56 AM
• Thanks for the reminder! I've been so focused on fantasy baseball. I'll do arbitration tonight.
  The Hurts Lockett at Mar 28, 2024 5:52 PM
• Last call on arbitration. It’s important that we have full participation, even if you’re not planning on participating next year.
  Los Angeles Dons at Mar 28, 2024 4:43 PM
• Welcome to the new manager. This is a good reminder to complete arbitration. You MUST allocate all of your arbitration dollars by March 31. Even if you don’t plan on playing next season, it helps the rest of us if you complete this simple exercise.
  Los Angeles Dons at Mar 20, 2024 10:45 AM
• Hi everyone, I just claimed a team in this league. I'm really excited for Fantasy Football!
  The Hurts Lockett at Mar 19, 2024 11:09 PM
• Arbitration is open, don't forget to allocate your $ before the 3/31 deadline.
  Springfield Atoms at Feb 16, 2024 4:43 PM
• I mean, 3 are currently locked and abandoned and have been for 3+ weeks, including my friend. You are locked out until you pay, so it's impossible for those who haven't paid to change their lineups.
  
  But 2 are the most problematic. Achilles told me he'll pay.
  
  1. Post Hype declared his intent at the beginning of the season to be out. He's 3-9, and he was starting players on a bye week even before rosters were locked.
  2. Action Boss is in the thick of the playoffs and still hasn't paid, and thus started four players on a bye this week.
  Uncle Rico’s 82 Team at Dec 4, 2023 4:17 PM
• Is it just one team that is truly abandoned?
  Springfield Atoms at Dec 4, 2023 3:38 PM
• Just want to point out that there are still 3 unpaid teams. Post Hype said he's out a few months ago, and Action Boss actually currently holds the 6th playoff spot and would have won this week, but started 4 players on a bye. Achilles is my buddy and he said he will pay (ahem...reminder).
  
  Anyways, we need to figure this out soon because 1st and 2nd are going to get fucked over if they win and the teams are not all claimed.
  
  Reading through the message board, what I've seen is that the league will revert to an unpaid league, and all of the paid players (9 or 10) will get a refund of their "prize portions" -- which in our case is $75, since our collective buy-in was $1,200 but the prizes only total $900. So all paid members who paid $100, will get a refund of $75. Including 1st and 2nd place. So instead of winning $600 and $300, you'll get to enjoy a nice refund of $75.
  
  Link: https://community.ottoneu.com/t/teams-quitting-before-paying/13280/4?u=pretendcanadian
  
  Important excerpt: "If your league has an expired team that was not paid for this season, we do a check that will result in your league being bumped down to a non-prize league and prize portion of the league fees returned to everyone who paid. This is exceedingly rare, but it is up to your league to put the effort in to find replacement managers to avoid this scenario. The Managers Wanted forums 3 are generally quite good at finding replacement managers. I would strongly recommend posting to that forum and trying to find some people up for the rebuild challenge."
  
  So while it's actually personally better for me to get my $75 back because my team sucks, it blows for 1st and 2nd place and I'd like to see us try to take care of them.
  
  For what it's worth, they are no longer requiring SSNs to make payments...so Post Hype and Action, if you even see this message, you can still pay and not need to give your SSN.
  Uncle Rico’s 82 Team at Dec 4, 2023 3:09 PM
• So the trade that I just agreed to with Ludicrous Speed is scheduled to complete at 12:57pm on Sunday, three minutes before the first NFL games kickoff but roughly two minutes after rosters lock for those early games. Unless anyone objects, we're going to manually move players at around 12:30pm on Sunday so players can be moved into place before active rosters lock. If you want to veto the trade, you have 47 hours, 33 minutes to do so, rather than the full 48 hours.
  
  Because we can't manually create loans, I'm going to lower Ekeler's salary temporarily so I don't get locked out of my team. I'm also going to keep Freiermuth on my team (currently on IR and not playing), and then create a new trade with Ludicrous Speed and Freiermuth for the correct loan amount. After the Freiermuth trade clears on Tuesday, I'll readjust Ekeler's salary to $104, and everything will be square.
  
  TLDR: the site locks rosters five minutes before kickoff for some weird reason and to honor the spirit of this trade before Sunday's games, we're going to manually make a series of transactions that will simulate the trade had it been made 10 minutes earlier!
  
  Again, if anyone isn't cool with this, no hard feelings. Just let me know and we'll resubmit the trade so that it doesn't compromise our rosters this Sunday.
