I see I am missing a sub so Julie Goodyear can go in but I also note that my number 11 pick Margaret Stuart Barry was dead when the game began. Obviously she will not score but can I replace her? If the answer is yes then Tom Baker will go to the bottom of my subs list Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is what happens when you have a 30 minute lunch break and you are manically checking on your phone. I never did have Derek Draper but I added him as a sub yesterday. New sub - Lily Ebert. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

livingbygrace 315 Posted January 7 This Pool looks like a lot of fun, and this is the first I saw of it since becoming a member. I would like to join the next time new rounds come about.. Do you start in October of every year then? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Toast 16,129 Posted January 7 I like that there's no room for ambulance chasing in this pool. Subs must be used in order, so you have to wait for three more deaths before your newest sub goes into play. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If the answer is yes then Tom Baker will go to the bottom of my subs list From what I see, you did submit a sub after Delors' death, I just didn't put it until now. But you're right, Stuart Berry doesn't score so Antonia Fraser moves from the sub bench to your list and you can either choose Baker or Goodyear for your third sub Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gcreptile 10,964 Posted January 8 I just noticed I had Chris Stone, the Australian rugby player. And I also had Franz Beckenbauer. So I am actually down all three subs. I am on the tram right now, and I'd like to add Noam Chomsky, please. The other two names follow in a bit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
