Transfer removed <li> items into another <ul> list

Question

Array 'myPicks' has a unique list of classes (.scifi, .adventure, etc.) , which will be used for sorting.

There is also an unordered list with li items, all with the class '.possibleMatch'

I am using variable 'camel' to filter through all of these '.possibleMatch' li's using the following:

var camel = $('.possibleMatch').not(myPicks.join(','));

Now, once I call camel,

 camel.html(camel).html();

the HTML updates with an unordered list with only li items with the classes specified in 'myPicks'.

This is working as I had hoped, but now I am stuck on how to move all the removed li items into another unordered list, that goes under the original unordered list.

I've tried

var noLonger = $('.possibleGames').filter(myPicks.join(','));
$('#somewhatMatch').html(noLonger.html(noLonger).html());

to try to move the removed items to a new unordered list, #somewhatMatch, but to no avail, now the original list will only show li items without the classes specified in 'myPicks'.

Please help!

Code that worked, if anyone uses this obscure question in the future:

//not sure why, but must clone beforehand
var llama = camel.clone();
//the following updates the original ul with items that match criteria
camel.html(camel).html();
//the following moves unmatched items into a new ul
$('#somewhatMatch').append(llama);

I think what you need is

var noLonger = $('.possibleGames').filter(myPicks.join(','));
$('#somewhatMatch').empty().append(noLonger.clone());
