drol 11,957 Posted January 15, 2019 I'd like to reaplce Carol Channing with Doris Day. At 25th obviously. New Sub: June Brown Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Death Impends 7,986 Posted January 15, 2019 Okay, very lucky break for the teams here that Channing died before the official starting line. Have not entered Dr T, Spade, or GUN yet (2 out of 3 picked her), but even without them she was the 14th most popular pick, on 28 teams with 287 points between them. June Brown is now part of the 50 and Angela Lansbury (4th place in that initial #50 tie) is the new sub name. Have to leave for work within the next 10 minutes so I can't get started on it quite yet but to reiterate: If you picked Channing on your team, the sub name immediately goes to #25th and you are entitled to name a new sub If the sub name is June Brown, you are given the option to put her in any spot of your team. If you didn't pick Channing but did name Brown as a sub, you are still allowed to move Brown into your main team, as she is part of the main 50 now If you didn't name a sub, you will have to specify a new #25 (or another position allowed if June Brown) in the thread As for your host, I picked Channing but only in the sub slot, so will have Bob Barker come on down as my new sub name. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YoungWillz 21,062 Posted January 15, 2019 I assume my survivors below Carol Channing move up one and Pope Benedict comes in at number 25, @Death Impends. New sub: June Brown if that's apt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Old Crem 3,608 Posted January 15, 2019 As I had Carol Channing as 24th I will move June Brown into the 6th Position and use Angela Lansbury as the new sub (I think I understand the rules correctly.) Have edited my list. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not all of these are final IE if Brown is your sub and you haven't specified a higher slot you're free to do so, likewise if you have yet to indicate a new sub pick. Those who I've @ ed will need to give me a new name as they do not currently have a full team. Everyone has a full slate of picks again. I'll get started on entering Dr T, Spade, GUN, and manuel's teams shortly 1 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
