    Yup!

    And I get a password recovery email about once a month from people thinking they got the name themselves.

    LAWL NOPE! IT'S MINE!

    We'll be doing these more frequently and getting a little more aggressive on the requirements to keep the names, so you shouldn't have to wait a year. Maybe a few months.

    We'll also come up with ways to limit the name hoarding smurfs that keep some people from getting their favorite names.

    Hmm that one should have gotten cleared I think. I'll look into it...

    I've opened a support ticket to make it available though, so here's hoping.
    We only cleared names from accounts that didn't play in 2012 this time (and were level 5 or below). We'll catch that one next time.

    does it mean someone already claimed it, or did it not get wiped?
    Looks like both this one and Antiphon (a couple posts later) were already claimed this morning.

    The name hoarders from this cleanup are on my radar and will be addressed with the next one.
