I think that would be best, since we wanted to try and finish by the games on March 22nd. Good reminder.

So yeah, same deal as before, send your MLB cuts to Exit via PM in spoiler tag.

Auction should start next week. Not sure we're going to make it in time though. **** Australia.

What's the record for most cuts? Gotta strive for something here.

This can be processed now.

Already processed.

http://www.couchmanagers.com/auctions/?auction_id=82

when you get a chance, create an account (free), and join this auction.

password is supbro

Once everyone is joined i'll get the keepers loaded and we can start it up sometime next week. I doubt we get it done in time for the aussie games, but maybe. we'll see.

says i need to subscribe to sign up for couchmangers league...

"Error: A subscription is required for auction drafts. Click Subscribe at the top of this page"

redrafting now...

J.P. Crawford isn't owned right? I take him.

Says we can buy the draft for $4.99 so anyone can join.

A Subscription gets you tokens that you use to enter drafts. We only need the 1 draft.

Take the 5 bucks out of the winners share?

Had same issues with subscribing.

Exit,

Looks like Couchmanagers is no longer free. Everyone would have pay to subscribe to the service, plus whatever "buy this auction" means. Maybe we should find an alternative site?

Too bad. I'm gonna miss that interface, which as Karak noted last year, gives me a little frisson when I load it up for the first time every year.

I tried to look for a free one, seems I suck at google or there aren't any.

We can do what we are currently doing in the puzzles and games forum's league.

They have a free forum setup at proboards.

It hosts all the league transactions, auctions, drafts, etc.

It requires a bit more work from each owner, as well as someone maintaining that forum as well.

Banhammer is the one who maintains it for that league.

Thats the link, Pecota and Exit can poke around and have a look but obv no one tamper with anything please (goes without saying just figured id give the obligatory warning or whatever)

Just a free solution, I'm sure there's a better one.

We may want to have one of these anyways, it's a more formal way to discuss rule changes and stuff without having everything mashed into one giant thread.

ESPN has a free auction draft that seems like it would do what we need. I'm going to see if I can get that set up tonight (unless Exit beats me to it) and we should be able to start the auction either tonight or tomorrow.

well, we're still misisng all the teams cuts, so we can't really start it yet.


also, try again with couchmanagers, i had to 'apply a credit so non members can join'... it should work now

Worked for me now.

yay we good now

yay for credits


i still say the forum on proboards is a good idea

ok, registered and all set for the auction. I will send my cuts in tonight, making some last min decisions.

And whats up with the rookie draft, Thayer picking errr?

What is max players again btw? Gonna figure out how many jerks I need to cut

30 max on active roster/$1000 cap for whole team

Damn. I gotta cut a bunch of fools haha

Trade:

I send Jose Quintana and Nate Schierholtz to alekhine for $50 2014 cap space.

^yuk

Confirmed

How many are in? I might need til tomorrow to decide unless I'm in the minority

Damn. I need to cut 10 just to get to max. I need to sell off all my 2014 cash haha.
