  4. Hey guys. Owl, I also like your name as it is. :)

    I have changed my name to Grimmy. Short, sweet, and reaper themed. I have always had usernames that are reaper-themed or some variation of Artemis, so this works. Can't wait to see who else changes their name. :)

  5. It seems like a pretty huge oversight on Mojang's part that you can do a UUID -> Name history lookup, but not a Name -> UUID one...

  10. Question, some of my res messages from when I was a supporter have my name on them, I typed my name instead of doing the owner thing. Will there be a way to change that part w/o buying supporter again, as Im currently lacking spare cash.

  11. Looking to change my name but I suck with it comes to new names. I'm looking to be vaguely similar to my current name. Thinking of getting rid of the bagby, but I still want to be recognizable. I was thinking of something like JakeyyB or something but idk, that name sounds not that good. Any ideas? :)

  12. I just want more clones... Of me. Using not-very different names, like Ëthy202 or Ethÿ2O2.

  14. Thanks. :) I wouldn't change it if I didn't feel the need to, it's just that it's a privacy issue to me. I've wanted to change it for a while, and now that name changing is here, I can. :)

  15. I would like to change my name to get rid of the _42 or maybe just the underscore, but unfortunately both TechNinja and TechNinja42 are taken. Might have to stick with what I got haha

    Or maybe....
    TwerkNinja?

  16. I am going to keep Olaf, but I am changing IceCreamHorse to Korszak. It is Hungarian for "Era" or "Time". I may use it as my main account once I come back :)

  17. Well it is a popular combo of words :p

    But yeah we had a fun booboo last night. I accidently triggered the name change code unintentionally
    (for you tech people, the code did if (getName() != old name in database, run name change code. well, I did setName before getName() to force you to use your old name, so that you would always be your old name, but I was doing code cleanup and did a "replace all getName() with a reference to the first String name = event.getName(), and now name was set before it was overridden by my code.)

    Thankfully game server didn't change, but a few peoples forum accounts got renamed on login, but we got them renamed back.
