Upcoming Name Sale Change and Inactive Name Clear

Posted on at 6:39 PM by Moobeat
Here is Hippalus sharing the details of the upcoming inactive account purge and name change sale.
"When Patch 1.73 arrives in mid-December (the 11th at the earliest), we’ll be rounding up inactive accounts to make those summoner names available to players. To make it easier for you to pick up a new summoner name, we’re also putting name changes on sale for 50% off.
An inactive account is any account under level 6 that hasn’t played a game since January 1, 2012. To keep those accounts’ names, you’ll have to log on and play at least one game between now and Sunday, December 9, at 11:59 PM PST. If you miss the deadline, don’t worry – your account is still active, but you’ll be prompted to choose a new summoner name when you log in next time. Only inactive accounts are at risk to lose their summoner names.
From the release of Patch 1.73 through December 26, summoner name changes will cost 650 RP, down from their normal 1300 RP price. As part of your Season Three prep, why not upgrade your summoner name to one that foreshadows your impending domination?
We look forward to seeing your creative new aliases on the Fields of Justice soon!"
Perhaps more interesting than the sale is the time frames for the 1.73 patch, which reveal that the current PBE patch (1.72) is planned for release sometime very soon..
"Patch 1.72 should go out within the next week. The Name Change cleanup will be in the one after that, patch 1.73."

  6. Every patch as a version number with it :o They used to put it in all the patch updates / previews but then they started using names so it was easier for summoners to remember and understand.

  11. So does this mean that the next patch will most likely come out before this weekend with a chance that the patch will come early next week? I've been wanting to try this Nami out ;~;

  12. What'd I say? First comments won't stop, but you'll have the pleasure of downvoting them. Only thing more we could ask of Surrenderat20.net is to make posts that have a certain number of negative votes (positive votes minus the negative ones) to be made not visible unless you click on it, similar to how the LoL forums work.

  23. What if the acc is level 30 but has nothing, I mean everything is clean and empty. Does the name get wiped? Empty as in runes, masteries, profiles, and match history.
