I'll sign up but with the Ivy we will see a lot more xp gained. I want xp but i think i should get some money from it too but the I won't win oh well... Seems like we just had this wasn't it like June?

cant compete =\ changed my name... my fault for not reading the rule's but i will post my starting and ending xp on runewire just to see where i ranked... probably top 3

No it's not. The page clearly says "Once you have signed up if you change your Runescape display name your experience WILL NOT be gathered."

It's also stated in the email you get.

Does anyone know if its possible if I change my name now, and still compete in November's skotm? I have signed up already. Pretty sure it works...somehow, so if it does you probably could too.

I'm thinking of recording my start xp and just keeping track myself. Just for the fun of it of course.
I was considering 99 Woodcutting this month.
This is a possible solution for you Owen.

Hello,
The skill of the month competition for the month of has started. However we were unable to retrieve your experience. Without a start experience value we can not track the amount of experience you have gained fairly.

This most likely happened because either your account was banned or you slipped out of a ranked position in the skill. We are terribly sorry about this.

The RSBandB Events Crew.

Just got the above message, sent a reply then thought had better post here.

None of the content applies. I just logged into RS to make sure. No banning message from here. Not changed my screen name. Woodcutting is not brilliant at level 88 but I still show on RS hiscores.

Hope this is just a glitch you have already discovered and sorted

I signed up, Going to be cutting Yews, With my Adze, With my Lumberjack, With homework and milk beside me. It's going to finally be a relaxing month, seeing I plan to not use ivy, seeing it's cheap imo. And I'm not going to argue about it, so don't get that thought of bothering me in the cc.

And what if I change the name during November? Would be like a similiar option to October's, or able to transfer the xp?

Post subject:	Re: November SKOTM Signup
No there wouldn't. The reason it was allowed last month was that the name changing feature came out on the 1st after signups closed. With this it would make sense for people to want to change their name on impulse, thus it was allowed. It becomes too much to manage changing and verifying names on a daily basis.

Oh I guess I won't be changing my name for this month then. So many people are already out of this competition with the name changing?

OK... Given that there are so many this month I will grant a grace period of up until SKOTM start at 12am MDT Nov 1. If you've not already done so PM me with your change.
