I've been a non-subscribed member for a couple of months or so and will probably soon upgrade to premium as I really like the site. One of the things I'd like to do after upgrade is change my username to something a little less boring than it is. I see that anyone can do this within the first 30 days, and subscribed users can do this once every 365 days. If I have not, as yet, made any change, would it be possible to do this as soon as I upgrade my subscription, or would I have to wait until I've been a member for 365 days?

Thanks

You can do it right away.

And if for any reason you can't, send feedback.

Thanks for the quick response. I'll go ahead and upgrade. One related thing, does the new name appear on games in-progress at the time of the change as this may confuse some opponents. I've already run down my current games to prepare for a change but I've got two that may go on a while yet.

The change will be referenced on your full profile for a period, so anyone investigating the "new" name will see it is a name change.
