No. No one can move to a new spot on the circle (defined to be within 3 feet of the circle). If they are away from the circle, they can't come up to it. If they are on the circle, they can move off the circle but they can't move to a new spot on the circle.

Just checking on these 'tried and true' statements?

A player can't be within 3 feet of the circle and be behind another player on the circle.
