Username changes, Fall/Autumn 2014

Question

Username changes are now closed until December.

---

OK it's that time again!

Name changes will be unlocked from Friday 5th Sept and will run until Sunday morning (maybe slightly longer, but no guarantees).

I've opened the thread now so everyone has a heads up. And some people like to ask others for opinions on changes - if that's the case post an answer with the options you're considering and others can comment. (If you definitely know what you're changing to, please don't post until you've actually changed it this weekend.)

Updating usernames is done by going to your user page and clicking "Edit my account" (direct shortcut link here).

Username restrictions:

• Usernames may not contain 'Pokemaster' in them, nor profanity.
• Due to technical restrictions these 3 characters cannot be used: @ + /
• Invisible characters (e.g. zero-width spaces) are not allowed. Regular spaces are fine.
• The maximum number of characters for usernames is 20. This includes all letters, numbers, symbols and spaces.

Really? I thought it was in October.

---

In those days, I will be on vacations and I'm not going to be able to go to the computer at that time .-.
That is bad!

---

I haven't even thought about this really.
I'm probably staying Indigo.

---

I have a name change in mind, but I am not sure I'm gonna post it here

---

I'm definently changing mine it is a PAIN logging in ( I always forget the code for the N with the squiggle on top)

---

@Amiable it's always at the start of each new season (makes it easier to remember for me!)
@Persona you can log in using your email address, that would probably be easier!

---

is it possible to code something that would automatically start the name changing period? like, instead of waiting several hours for PM to turn on the ability. just wondering

---

The Blastoise  >  Mr Gamaken
I'm  very ungraceful

---

I'm so unlucky I missed it by 3 hours qq

Weren't we supposed to be able to change our usernames at the beginning of December?

yes, indeed. "dOkTOrr D00d?" was just meant as a joke, and then change it back just before the name change period ended, but then I forgot .3.

If you ever decide to stick to a name you should just go back to Recoded.

---

Possibly, but i get bored to easy :I

Answer 9

I'm gonna go to -[Ninja'd-French-Frog]- cos Greninja still rox.

On second thought -[Ninja'd-Greninja]- sounds better. Tell me what you think.

Or maybe -[Iron-Frog]- or [MEGA] Metal Ninja.

Wait, the perfect name would be ~[|Greninja-Skywalker|]~

BTW, I already changed my Grav.

Comments

I edited out the last name change because it had more than 20 characters. If you can shorten it then feel free to put it back in lol :P

Why the "13"?

Because FallenFury69 was taken.

Imo just Fallen Fury. But that's just me. :D

Comments

(Or Fenrir: the unbound for people that can't read that ;o)

SMITE FOR THE WIN >:D

Comments

Looks like it says "mhe" instead of the

---

That "m" looks nothing like a T.

---

I don't know what happened to it, I put it through the fancy text maker-ma-jinger, it had the "t" in it, copy pasted it over, and it turned into a m :/ (even in editing it shows as a T)

---

I find smite to have an interesting mechanic, but is a bit dull in teamfights, the jungle and roster than League or even Dota.

Answer 13

And so, we have a winner

Victini Victory is back, everyone!

So, here are the options:

1. Munchlax Forever - ONE

2. Victini Victory - SIX

3. MagikarpShouldBeUber - THREE

4. Beautifly Blade - ONE

5. Raised By Wolves - TWO

6. ElectricShockRotom - ONE

Choose wisely! Vote, now! The votes will go on until SATURDAY, then I will change the name and keep it forever. Ties will result in flipping a coin. GO!

Munchlax Forever, the first name I had ever on the DB. Oh, the memories! The wonder! The awkwardness with Rio!

Victini Victory, the name I had when I was really popular and active here on the DB. Had lots of friends around this time. The popularity! The activeness! The JirachiCelebiMew!

MagikarpShouldBeUber, the joke of a name I made with the user Absol. In this time, I first indulged in the world of metagame. The bad jokes! The metagame! The uber!

Beautifly Blade, the name I picked during my love of Beautifly stage. Also shows with my gravatar, which I keep forgetting to change. The love! The blades! The fun!

Raised By Wolves, hmm, didn't keep this one for long actually. Got the idea from DT's profile, actually. It's a cool name, though. No memories...

ElectricShockRotom, the name that brings back memories of a sadder time when all my friends began to leave. Had a bit of a breakdown, not gonna expand on that. The sadness! The depression! The breakdowns!

So, based off this information (which is useless) pick wisely.

Comments

magikarp should be uber

Victini Victory! Victory Victini!
