On "Reserving" Summoner Names and Statistics

Posted on at 6:24 PM by Moobeat
In lieu of the recent addition of Summoner Name Changes to the in game store, average joe forum-goer Viral has but a simple request. He pleads of Riot to take the time to wipe out level one, unused accounts, to free up some names that might be sitting in limbo. Surprisingly, Riot Games president Mark "Tryndamere"  Merrill has swooped in for a "quick" response.
"We will be doing this. Details coming shortly."
- Tryndamere, President, via the official forums.






On the subject of Tryndamere lurking the forums, he also responded to another thread about Riot putting out some statistics about League of Legends, such as total games played a day, total accounts created, etc.
"Yes. We will be announcing this.

Long story short, we're huge and most people have no idea just how big."
- Tryndamere, President, via the official forums.

    Ah that's a terrific idea, I know one of my accounts will be wiped though! Good thing, I wasn't happy with the account name.
