Extra, extra, read all about it! A one-time option to change your username has now been made available to all users.

The power is finally in your hands! SB Nation now offers a one-time only username change option for every user on the network.

1) A user goes to their profile page and selects "Edit Account & Settings" from the dropdown menu

2) User selects "Use my one change" on the page.

3) User types in the name they want to use, and the system will tell you whether or not the name is available.

Good:

REMEMBER: Each user only gets one username change. Once this change has taken place, the bar will be very high for us to consider another name change, but any user can email support@sbnation.com to submit a request that includes the rationale behind the change.
