Best time to import a Yahoo league?

[nivshah]

Hey, thanks for your interest in Ottoneu, that’s awesome to hear!

Some of your questions have been answered in this thread:

Bringing a Yahoo League to Ottoneu

I have a Yahoo dynasty league of 13 that has 8 really active players. Recognizing that we are more serious about it than the others, we want to bring our league to ottoneu and take a step up in game experience and seriousness. It’ll give us expanded rosters and a more professional feel. Since we already have keepers, how smooth would the transition go? Can I keep our current rosters if we move here? Somebody who has done this or knows these answers, please help.

I don’t know what kind of roster export tools Yahoo provides, but I’m happy to build support for importing them if they do allow rosters to be exported.

The main question about timing really depends on what you want to participate in. The price change will be official in early October, after the season ends and before arbitration, which starts in mid-October. At that point you will be able to create a league.

Do you want to participate in arbitration and get going on this platform sooner? Do you generally do a lot of trading in the off-season, etc? Or do you want to bring things over right before the auction draft ahead of 2019? Those are up to you, but basically any time from October 15 on can work.

As a side note, keep an eye on this thread about 16-team leagues as well:

16 Team Leagues Possible?

Possible to begin 16 team leagues? Several people I know hesitate to join due to smaller leagues. Forming that size leagues would increase the complexity and challange of building a team.

Thanks!
