Can I please change my username to match with my GC one?

So when I first signed up to GC I didn't realise the importance of choosing a username that I would actually be happy to be known by everywhere my caching boots would take me. After thinking about it over the last few weeks I've decided to change my GC cacher name to 2max, which I've now just changed this morning over at GC.

:arrow: So can I also please have my account here changed to 2max so that they match?

Also should I re-visit the caches I've already been to, and physically sign my new username in there? (not such a hard feat as I've only found 14GC and 1GCA so far) I'm just aware that the physical log will say something different to what the online logs will say. Just not sure what the 'done' thing is, or should be! Or doesn't it really matter?

Thanks! :D

It doesn't matter. There is a very small possibility that the owner checks the physical log against the online log and challenges you on it, but simply explaining you changed your name should suffice in that case.

Thanks CAW, much appreciated. \:D/

Thanks Damo. I wasn't sure if there was any sort of unwritten law on what to do. I guess it could be reasonably easy for a CO to work it out by the found dates in both physical and online logs anyway.. I'm in the sticks, so not too many multiple finds in one day around here. Cheers :)
