Tentatively looking to start a slow draft Sunday 4/6 at 5pm PT
Would anyone be interested?
Just as a heads up it can either be a 4x4 league or a FG Pts league unless you want a 4x4 with playoffs

lol thank you 
points is what I meant!
I’d be interested. I’ve played Ottoneu before. Might have a couple more I can wrangle as well.
I’m interested as well
@egask2 @cgarner29 I have some requests from others who are interested but want it to be a $50 league in order to ensure people are incentivized to continue participating. Any concerns with that change?
Just one person’s opinion or caution, since you set up a HTH league,if one team throws in the towel mid-season, it could be guaranteed wins against him in just about every matchup. That could really cause some aggravation for teams fighting for positions come August/September. A new league with new guys can face that danger. And if you are playing for prize money, well you can imagine. People quit at all $$$ levels.

Thank you! Does most of the league making the playoffs reduce that?
I’ve only done H2H for the last 15 years – seems like it makes it more engaging on a week-to-week basis, and even if you’re not “winning” the league, you have the small victory of winning the week.
But I’ve never done Ottoneu, so perspectives are highly appreciated!
I really can’t offer an opinion on your question of 4 team vs 6 team playoffs keeping all 12 engaged. Maybe you could find an educated answer on Slack but I think many of those guys play in leagues where they know the reputations of most of their league mates. When you have a league where everybody is new to each other, its a crap shoot whether everybody will be dedicated.
Edit: By the way, I think Ottoneu has many leagues where the same core people stay together for a long time unlike the vast majority on other sites. That’s one of many reasons that make it the best community for FBB.

I would do $50 tier as well.

Am also interested in hopping in this league and would prefer the $50 tier. Have done both $20 tier and others and have seen guys check out and then just renew their team in the offseason and then do the same thing the next year. Less common in prize leagues from my experience. If we’re really concerned about people quitting mid-year putting the league in jeopardy, we could switch to normal fgpts rather than h2h so it has less of an effect.

I’ve created it at $50. Once we have our 12, we can decide among participants as to whether to do H2H or not.
Is there still openings in this league?
I have played in year round fantasy BB leagues for 40 years Scoresheet sports but it is going downhill and I would like to try something different…I like to trade and talk baseball year round. I was wondering if you have any open teams right now.. Never played Ottoneu I am a paying member for Fangraghs and heard Otto is a nice platform for fantasy BB..please let me know if you have teams available and let me know where I can find them $20 team is fine as is $50 team is also good…Karl
