Alias Preference for PbP?

Silver Crusade RPG Superstar Season 9 Top 32

So, the situation: I have a PFS character alias with more than 10 posts and as such the name is locked in. Since then I have made use of the level 1 re-build rules to take the character in a different direction (including a changed name) and want to play this character in an online play-by-post game.

The question: I know that I cannot change the PFS alias's name now. But what do y'all do when you want to play a character online when the alias has an unchangeable and wrong name?

I'm leaning toward using a non-PFS alias with the correct name and stats for the game, and adding links to both profiles to indicate which is the character's "real" name and which is their PFS-linked reporting alias. This seems like the most elegant solution I can think of, but what do other people think? Have you seen any other methods for dealing with this that seemed to work well?

Use whatever Alias you want. Only the reported number matters.

When I use a Pregen in a PbP, for example, I have an Alias named "Best Pregen Ever!".

Your solution works for me!

Hmm
