Rules:
1.You must be an active player in BingoMania UK (an active player is someone who has made a deposit in the past 30 days)
2.Only one name change per account/email address is allowed. If duplicate or multiple entries are received only the first one will be accepted and the other disqualified.
3.You must keep the name from the time you change it until the 31st December. Be sure to join the chat rooms so the GM’s can see your new name.
4.Your name change must follow Mania’s guidelines and cannot include “GM” in the name. After you make your name change send your usual alias and your new Christmas alias to gmtartanterror@bingomania.co.uk. If you do not send an email you will not qualify for the contest.
5.To request a name change simply send in a help desk ticket to the office with the alias you would like. Please note there is a 15 character limit for aliases. The office will then change your name to the one you requested if it is available. After your name change is complete email your new and old alias to GM TartanTerror. (Please note: do not email your entry until after the name change has been made on your account in case the name you have chosen is not availalable.
Entries will be added to the list below daily. If you do not see your submitted Christmas name on the list below be sure to email GM TartanTerror before the 20th of December deadline. A Complete list of entries will be posted here by the 22nd of December.
