I was wondering if it was possible to change what screen name my pt3 was using for one of my sites. I am still using the trial version and I recently opened a new account on full tilt and can't seem to figure out how to change it so it tracks my new screen names stats and not my old one. Thanks.

Are you looking to keep your old stats in addition to the new ones? If so, you can add an alias (General Tab, Right hand side, Aliases, Edit). If you just want to start over tracking the new account, Just click Settings and change My Screen Name.

Btw FTP doesn't allow multiple accounts so when they catch you you'll be back to the old one (at the very least).

No. They will force you to go back to the old account. It's like the #1 no-no. 1 account per person.

It's like the main tab under both cash games and tournaments.

Pt3

You can see the aliases section and the settings button in the above pic.

As to your brother, it really depends on what name is on the account. Have you already deposited into both accounts?

You should probably download the latest beta (what I have) but I can't believe it's not very similar.

I think the reason its not letting me change the screen name or add an alias is b/c i'm only on the trial version. It only allows me the option of searching for a name and it seems to only bring up names of people I've played with. Oh well.

Your new name should be in that list as well, assuming you've imported hands while playing under that name.

Make sure you have the import folder set to the new username. It should be similar to what's in the pic with the new username where the white block is.

Import

I think I found my problem. "Full Tilt is not configured to save hand histories to disk". Just gotta figure out how to fix that.
