only four more days to bump up salaries!

you jackals are doing quite a number on me already. join the fun, slackers!

[TransMonk]

I wasn't going to say anything in hopes that the deadline might pass with any more salary increases to my team.

[Ceetar]

Is one of you MirMets69 or did we lose someone? (and if it's one of you, arb it up!)

[metsmarathon]

i'll harass my own non-cpf friend who's dilly-dallying.

I emailed them both.


feel free to cut him!

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Thanks, also reached out myself.

[Ceetar]

So we have an opening, who wants in?!

[metsmarathon]

which one is out?

i may have another friend who has expressed interest in the past...

[Ceetar]

Duda Wright Things will be abandoned.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Can we find them a new GM?

edit -- I think Boy Named Seo wants in, should ask.

[TransMonk]

Correct, I remember ABNS asking if there were openings at the beginning of this last season.

[A Boy Named Seo]

Yup, would be all over it. Someone wanna give me a quick what-to-do?

[Ceetar]

After he releases (or I release?) You'd head over to

http://ottoneu.fangraphs.com/claimteams

and find the Duda Wright Things team in the Crane Pool Forum league and claim it.

You're good until 3/13 financially, but would need to spend 9.99 to renew for the next season. (and you probably need a fangraphs account)


As far as responsibilities go.. Friday is the arbitration deadline. You don't have to really worry about this if you don't want, but we all spent money to raise the prices of your players, you have the option to spend $25 raising the prices of any of our players, at least $1 per team.

After that, you can trade players, release players, etc until March when we all have to get together for a draft to fill in the empty spots on our roster via online auction.

[TransMonk]

There's a rules link on the page as well that helps out with the details of the league.

Fun stuff...glad to have you aboard.

[A Boy Named Seo]

OK, I'm registered over there. Don't see the team yet, so let me know when that's freed up and I'll nab em. Thx again, dudes.

Team abandoned. pick 'er up.


Let me know if it disappears (Because some random goonie claims it) and i'll re-abandon.

[A Boy Named Seo]

Got it.

[Ceetar]

Yippee.

[A Boy Named Seo]

Not clear as to where to go to use the arb allocations... Am I missing something kind of obvious?

PS - I understand if none of you rush to help me with this one here...

UI's not overly friendly imo.

http://ottoneu.fangraphs.com/209/allocations

There's an allocation tap on the lower header. Then you have select each team from the drop down near the top left that should give you their roster with a drop down for each player to select $1 $2 or $3. Gotta give every team at least $1 and maximum of $3.

[A Boy Named Seo]

Ah, there it is. Thanks. Guess I'll start with these chumps... the Brettanomyces Tart-ans. Suckers.
