Change username while in turn-based games

[crazy-parrot752]

Hi,

I tried to change my username from the random one and I can't because it says "You must finish or leave ALL your game tables before changing your username." Is there any way to change my username while still playing in turn-based games? I didn't put any thought into my username when making my account because I didn't know how much I would like bga, but now I'm addicted to turn-based games and I don't want to be stuck with this stupid username and have people calling me crazy

Thanks in advance!

Technically speaking, that's a macaw.

As for the message you're seeing, I've never seen this issue raised before. Good luck.

Based on the message, I would assume there's not a way. So you'd just have to let your games finish up and not start new ones until you change it. Which is a pain, but you shouldn't be too long without any games running. You've got one fairly new game of Ark Nova, so that will be what you'll be waiting on. If you wanted to run another short game (or a few) alongside Ark Nova you could, and then just make sure you don't start any longer games while you're waiting for those to finish.
