so uhhhhh something like twitter and the new discord handles where it is an alternative than usernames, ban unicode from handles and it can be easier to search for people while we can add unicodes to our display names!
#add @ handles to tetrio

I don't see any reason why

steel sleet
isnt it already disallowed to use unicode shits
you can only use basic things like - _ or whatever
and that still makes sense to be not different by the handle's format
and yeah there's no interesting point to make it since usernames already never duplicate
nvm i got the wrong point
ok so this is more like "add display name which can be duplicated and funny unicodes can be used"
i love how it confuses people 
wicked geode
yeah i dunno i don't really like this idea
junior crest
I can understand why someone would request this but it seems unnecessary
dark jewel
i do technically want to impl this, but itll only be used for changing capitalization sorrie
aside from not liking it theres technical reasons to not allow arbitrary unicode in usernames

indecipheralble-mess-of-pixels names are cringe

I would love to be able to change my display to uppercase (because font sucks (lowercase L and uppercase I)) but TETR.IO already uppercase everything so lol
steel sleet
uppercased hundin = wider 
raw chasm
Oh yeah forgot about that
wicked geode
mixed caps and hundin do not mix 
if it stayed as hundin i would cringe looking at practically everyone's usernames lol

ngl i think changing display names using upper+lower is better than what i suggested (lifting unicode rule)
thorn nimbus
lol
I'd rather take the TTV route of only case-change once you choose your nickname tbh and seems like OP agrees as well
Years of using variations on Flood looks a little odd once I got to all caps
thorn nimbus
Because Flood is an elusive username to get in the first place lmfao
I wouldn't have the underscore in my name if I didn't have trouble
Overtime it's become my identity as "Flood_" rather than just Flood or other variations when I started solidifying my usernames across platforms (some still don't reflect that for reasons) (and even then, HD ends up in my name because "Flood_" is also taken in a lot of places)

I wouldn't ...
Just contact support
Or something

This isn't an issue necessarily tied to TETR.IO
And even if it was, the response 99/100 of times would be "get here faster lol"
wicked geode
huh? we're known for a semi-generous usurp policy
https://ch.tetr.io/u/flood has 106 minutes of gameplay, which i guess is better than most, but at the same time, when we see that a user hasn't even logged in since country flags were implemented, it's a lot more likely that we'll remove it for you
regardless it's probably better to keep a consistent identity across platforms and i understand how getting super simplified on tetr.io specifically gets to be annoying lol
(people constantly lookup https://ch.tetr.io/u/zaptorzap and then ask me who i am because zaptorzap doesn't exist 
)

wait what's your tetrio username
thorn nimbus
Eh, it's not really an issue for me trying to take instances of Flood anymore anways; my identity's shifted more to Flood_ anyways so it's fine with me lol.
I guess it's my encounters outside of TRTR.IO that make me assume it's usually the case I mentioned where you were too late to claim your name and the best you can do is wait for the name to be unclaimed (usually doesn't happen)
But that's besides the point, I'll be waiting for the time I can change the caps in my name
toxic mantle
what did i miss

rare sighting of wupdate used in the wild
as for actual input i think what osk suggested sounds like the better option, being able to just change your capitalisation like on twitch

That's why the redesign will use Tenken as TETR.IO's new main font (the one used in "0:13.650" and "New 40 Lines world champion across all stacker games!")
wicked geode
yup
