I've updated the original post with the below text to answer some of the recurring questions:


We're looking at starting to release inactive names 2-3 weeks from now. We'll announce more details closer to the time. The releases will be done in batches over the course of (hopefully) a fortnight.

We will also be watching closely to guard against name resellers and mass-hording. RWT for character names is not allowed and we'll ban any and all accounts used by someone for such mass name selling.


Exact time please.

Also send me a message asking what name I want and then please reserve it for me.
They wont reserve a name for you.. You'll have to try snipe the name.

I'm sure many people would ask 'nicely' to have a name reserved for them, but it's not going to happen.

You'll have to try get the name the same as everyone else

And Pips, any idea how many names will be released at a time? If it's a small amount then it'll be much harder to obtain one, and also where will the list be?

We're looking at in the region of 50 million+ total.
Broken up into maybe 4-5 batches. But I can't confirm that yet, we've still got some prep to do before we can confirm quantities, batches and release times.

I have a few questions to the Mods. Can we have one word names? Also, I agree about releasing a list just seems like a bad idea though. is it going to be a few names released and the other that should stay hidden/to be found? or just a straight-forward list of up for grab names?
