Yes, I would expected cluster 119 to successfully submit assuming that 
four or more earlier submitted jobs completed or otherwise were removed 
from the queue.  How long do your sleep jobs run?  Is it possible that 
between submission of cluster 113 and cluster 119 that four of your jobs 
completed?
