Does the sub come in at no 3 or does everyone else get promoted one position with the sub coming in at 21? Asking for a friend.... Thanks. Yeah if 3 on your list dies before the start,4 becomes 3,5 becomes 4 etc.. and your first reserve becomes 21 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's hard not to be influenced by seeing names that others have picked. Agreed, it also makes one look like a pick thief, when all teams are revealed, even when they've been tracking certain lesser-known names, on their own, for awhile now. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
