Ever since we accepted the war we decided that this is a tactic WG will definitely have to try if we want the upper hand. I understand there's a bunch of you that are skeptical about changing your name but we ask that you suck it up for one month and help us win. No one can steal your previous RSN and you can change it back in a month. I'll think you'll survive.

We are changing our names to variations of

WE GOT TEA

Variations:
-Keep EVERYTHING capitalized, this is important.
-Change E's to 3's
-Change O to 0
-Change A to 4

If you get a name that's already taken then keep trying different ones.

The staff will be updating the ml an hour before the war so we need everyone to post their EXACT new rsn here.

In Trepid - WE GOT T3A
30 Str 0wnz - WE G0T TEA
Quikdrawjoe - WE GOT TEA
His Lordship - WE G0T TE4
WG_Keanu - W3 G0T T3A
ImBryanMan - WE G0T T3A
Planolocal - W3 G0T T34
ThisIsUnique - W3 G0T TEA
Hamfield3 - WE_GOT_TE4
Mickey - W3 GOT TEA
Ubg-Fcbruges - W3 G0T TE4
Zemus3654 - W3 GOT T3A

Yes, logging in on RS still asks for your account details.

Kinda stupid to not choose one that is harder to distinguish and with more variation. With just looking at it, I think there are 16 obvious variations?

I will get to it tonight. I gotta get ready for work now.

I was against this in DF, and my mind hasn't changed. It's a cheap tactic.

You can change different letterss in different places.
Like W3 GOT T3A and W3 GOT TE4.
There are plenty.

Let us see how fast we run out of combinations then.

The only addition of variations that I can think of is putting in some lower case letters.

WE GOT TEA
WE GOT TE4
WE GOT T3A
WE G0T TEA
W3 GOT TEA

That's 5 and I only changed one letter per name.
Now if you mix up the letters in different spots... that's like hundreds..

I'm against using tactics like this which could be considered dishonourable, but I trust Gene's judgement.

If you change the E with an A to get T43, then yes, you add more, but with the base of WE GOT TEA, it is not hundreds, unless you involve more variables.

Possible combinations diminish a lot quicker than you think.
