So what names did you all manage to get or not get?

I think it's easier for me to list what I didn't get* (I was playing with my daughter so I logged on late), but I'm curious to see how everyone else fared.

I haven't transferred or created anyone on this server yet, so there's still hope.

*Intense, Nightblade, Battlesteel, Magefire and Ice Lantern are the names I did not get

I got the ones I needed to control. as for the rest, whatever.

I got a few I was happy with:

Toys
Malevolent
Chivalry
Technomage
Autumn Equinox (Really wanted just Equinox for and Ice/Fire combo of some sort, but oh well)
Night Lord
Quazar

Those are the ones I can remember

I was really hoping to land:
-Winter
-Vox

Both were, unfortunately, already taken. To those who got there first, kudos. However, at the moment, I am not yet sure how much time I'll be devoting to playing on Exalted. So for what it is worth, I hope the names went to people who intend on taking those characters to their utmost potential. (As opposed to a player creating a character with the name simply to keep anyone from getting the name of their character from another server.)


@Winter. Because I'm Winter. Period.
I am a blaster first, and an alt-oholic second.

My hope as well... I know I grabbed a few names of some of my characters that I plan to transfer to the VIP server eventually, but I hope people don't just hold name for spite. (Although, I'll admit, I could understand someone doing it with their Global)

<---- Didn't get this

Because it was so late going live last night I couldn't log in, had to go to bed. Tried just now when I got home from work and someone has already taken Carnifax

I did not get Obsidius.

I'm looking at obtaining it from the person who has it. Otherwise, I have a plan; something I've considered doing for a while anyhow.

I'm picturing your avatar saying that last sentence, and I suddenly get an ominous feeling. Y'know, like when you wonder what would happen if the world were to end in an instant...

I could definitely see someone doing it with their Global, and I would not hold it against them. Except I used the "/getglobalname" command, and the aforementioned criteria did not apply

I logged in almost as soon as the servers came back, and I still missed my first choice(s):

Decoy
Illusion (which was my backup if I couldn't get Decoy.)

Others I was hoping to snag but missed out on:

Mathemagician
Knight Widow
Nyx or Nox

Other than Decoy though, I'm not really too disappointed, because I did get most of the names I wanted, including:

Thermocouple
Ingot
Miss Tell
Sticks
Stones
Dead Serious
Nick of Time
Dawn of Time
Tarantula Hawk
Whip
Lash

and a few others I'm forgetting.

I'm planning to level pact a few of these characters if it wasn't obvious.

Nothing world-ending, I assure you. But if someone is planning to extort me so I can have my namesake, they're sorely mistaken.

On the other hand, if someone were to try that with me, I would be pretty flattered that they would think of me that way, or think I have gobs of Influence lying around

On the third hand (don't ask), if someone just wanted a cool name, I can't blame them

Hopefully I'll know more today in any case.

You know....now that I think about it......of all the names I've tried that were already taken, I don't think I've ever seen any of those characters. I was told by a few that the name probably isn't a real character, and that the person just didn't want anyone else to have it, or something like that.

For example, like once of my choices earlier, that I missed: Someone creates Intense, but leaves him at level 1 and never plays him, preventing anyone from getting the name. (Unless you use Entense, but that isn't the same)

There's one exception, and it was a Knightblade that I met on Champion a few years ago. He'd had the character since beta.

I managed to get all the ones I wanted to get, now it just a matter of which one I'll focus on leveling up first.


Armond - Magic Scrapper - Dark Melee / Super Reflexes
Fatal-Arrow - Natural Corruptor - Archery / Trick Arrow

 

Posted

I got the names that I wanted.

I was a bit too slow getting home and logged in to Exalted, but the only name I wanted that was common enough for someone else to snag was ironically my main: Lady Arcana. So I had to compress the space out which worked. I hope that dude knows how to answer defense questions. Other than that I don't like grabbing names before I actually intend to play them.

I'll get a name when I roll a toon there.


 

Posted

I didn't get the name that was on the top of my list, Dirge. I am begining to wonder if their is a comic book character named Dirge, that I don't know of as I was unable to get that name on any server seven years ago either.

Names I reservered:
Guilt Trip Girl
Rout
(those are my two favorite characters on my home server)
Gleam (For a Beam Corrupter)
Facet (Stone/Time Controller)


 

Posted

I failed to get the name The Judge, as that is what my main, Iron Judge, was supposed to have been called. So he'll stay in Virtue.

But I did manage to snag Apotheosis, Rudra, and Mindfire.


--Arkham : The Blackened Hatter

Virtue: The Iron Judge - lvl 50 Inv/War Mace Tanker.
And his amazing friends: Warman, Dr. Mindfire, Ms Mallet, Papa Cap, Ibis, Ragman, Queen Steam, Rudraksha, Teflon Girl, Kodiakman.

Fixed.

I managed to get both Lady-Jade which is my global and the one name I have reserved on every server.

I was also able to grab just plain Jade which is the name I originally wanted when this game first came out and I was unable to get.

Along with that I just made Exalted my all Jade all the time server with the names...

Jade
Lady-Jade
Mistress-Jade
Queen-Jade
Princess-Jade
Duchess-Jade
Countess-Jade
Czarina-Jade
Teen-Jade
Baroness-Jade
Empress-Jade and
Miss-Jade

That should keep my life simple.

To get Lady-Jade and Jade I had a friend reserve them as he was going to be on when the servers came up and I wasn`t going to be around. I thank him for that.

I assure you, a human person (not me, but I know him!) got that name and it's his character from another server.

I got all but one of the names I wanted - and most importantly locked down my global, heh.

I had two names I really wanted. "Aegis Rose" and "White Lie".

I have an Aegis Rose practically everywhere, now I got one on Exalted, too. White Lie was an old favorite name of mine on a Stalker that transferred servers and couldn't keep her name. Decided to reroll rather than transfer as I really liked that character. 50 more levels of Nin/Nin Stalker goodness. Well, evilness, but you get the point.

So I'm two for two.

Really happy to get Marrionette & Lazer. Missed Harlequin (though it would be doubtfully available)

Still surprised to see these free if anyone's stuck...

Pandemica
Chaos Engine
Southern Belle

Really old pages in "Name Watch" threads are a good source if you didn't get exactly what you were after.
