The Ottoneu-native mock drafts are still a bit messed up, but I am going to work on them this week. I don’t think anyone has had one on-site yet this year.

Slack has an active mock drafts channel and I believe they are up to their 4th slow draft. I’ll have one of them share what is up with those over here soon.

Yeah that’s correct, there have been 4 mock drafts done so far over there. Results and average salaries from those drafts can be found here.

If you or anyone else would like to join an upcoming mock draft (slow draft held on couchmanagers) please shoot myself and/or @SABRmagician a DM here or reply on thread

thank you. I have actually been in his mocks. I was wanting a fast/normal type.

thanks Niv. Yes I have done the mocks there, I am looking for a fast one not slow again.

BTW, Niv, I tried to also join a slow one on couchmanagers but it was PW protected. I assume that means closed to outsiders or such. I tried to see how to contact the admin but didnt have luck.

I spent some time on mock draft bugs and performance today and I believe they should be good to go. Anyone is welcome to start a mock draft for free.

If I see any performance hits during actual baseball drafts, I might take them down again. Keep in mind if you have a draft that goes inactive (no picks made) for 48 hours, it will be marked as done. Only 4 mock drafts can be active at a time. You can fire up some draft bots to draft against, but they will outbid you.

If you are interested in doing a mock draft to either get some feel for values in a new league or to get a feel for the Ottoneu draft room, I recommened starting a thread in the Managers Wanted category of the forums.

many thanks, Niv.

I am not sure how to go about setting it up. I clicked on the link above “to start a mock for free” and did that, but how do I set the day to hold the auction and other details such as minutes per pick?

Starting a thread in Managers Wanted is giving the notice of my intentions to hold it?

thank you

Mock Drafts got launched 3 years ago. You can read about them here:

These are Ottoneu Auction Drafts that just are not tied to a league. They play exactly how an Ottoneu Auction Draft would play. There are no settings for minutes per pick. Nominate a player within 30s, then a 15s timer starts that is reset any time someone else bids. They are intense.
