9 pm deadline, for the 12 warned team owners, 1 checked in, 11 got the boot. Here are the 11 open teams: Raiders Chargers Pats Bengals Titans Eagles Seahawks Packers Lions and tigers and Bears, oh my!!! Panthers
If you know of any active owners, wanting to join this league, please contact them before it's too late. Thanks!!!
Why do you say that? Will it cause the league to fold? All leagues drop players due to inactivity or for other reasons. Most of the owners, who were dropped, either just signed up, been in for a year and this was their first team, or had 1 team before this one. All of them, however, took part in the draft, played a few weeks, and then never checked in again, some for over a month. It would be better to have no owner, and let the AI run the team, than have an owner just let the team run on auto-pilot. At least AI would win a few games, right?
AI run teams goes to the dumps, they sign really stupid contracts and cause major cap issues fast. Hopefully the majority of the teams will be filled before off season if not maybe have a experienced player jump over and at least set draft board and try to control FA signings.
The league no longer automatically folds if you cut too many owners. However, because the AI runs the teams so badly, you run the risk of having these teams become perpetual orphans

So what I'm reading is that it's better to have completely inactive owners than having those teams not owned by anyone?
Because the AI's "attempts" are so badly misguided, in some ways, that is so. An inactive human owner does not sign aging veterans to fat contracts, thus screwing any human who dares take the team over. There is a limit, however, because the contracts for the kicker and punter eventually run out, so the effect of an inactive human goes south after a season or so. In the short term, however, yes, inactive owners are preferable to AI's. If a veteran human owner (possibly the admin!) can take over teams and prevent the AI from signing ridiculous contracts, and can set up draft boards, then the AI is better.
