can we have some way to gain name changes?
Don't care how you do it, just that we get name changes some how.

Some thoughts from me...

Gain a name change every 5 ascensions.
Give a name change every New Year(s).
Give an option to purchase one with DMU.

Maybe someone has a better suggestion for awarding name changes....

Also if you decide to incorporate this idea it should be retroactive, depending on how you decide to award name changes.

Use ALL market turns (3 quantities) to acquire a name change (here and on ascended if relevent...) Identities are not cheap...

Eh?

oh snap, reading is a required skill ROFL... thanks, never noticed.

Meh, it could use an ascended option I guess. Since its a rather large cost, if you just want one for ascended. I mean ascended has a market too, so I'm sure a cost could be worked out.

Indeed seems strange to have it awarded via Main, but I guess for now it is the only option.

2k Attack turns in ascended for a name change?

That's about the only thing of real value that your ascended account owns itself. All other things are stats you have to work on.

My thoughts exactly. Even 2k AT's seems a little cheap though.. but like you said, it's the only 'exchangeable' (and owned) thing of value.

The alternative would be no AT generation for X-time.

Oh, that is interesting; you could make a 10k AT cost, for example. The time it takes to gather 10k ATs is the time you can't generate ATs.. good stuff.

I'd like to add that purchasing a USS in main does not give a name change in ascended like the MTs do, just thought it deserved attention.

Good idea and this option sounds like it would be easy to implement.

yes i know it's annoying getting an account and playing with some else's name i feel sorry for who ever is harchester thats got to suck

but i think the reason you can't really have them is because if you changed your name to another name not same as main then another person may come along and won't be able to ascend and be like screw this im going oh wait i am bonus

i think change everyones name back to what their main is (it can be done then give everyone an additional name change. however this time make it so they can't take a name of an unascended player and a new player making an account can't have a name that is on ascended already

does the beta glitch still work? You used to be able to do the 3 market turns for a name change deal and get the name change on non-beta ascended as well as on beta main.

his old one isn't named Harch... but that does raise an issue.. if name changes become more easy to obtain .. taking someone elses identity will be too..

Avoid Identity theft...Keep your name
