In one of the last hardcore seasons, I decided to name my character the same as on my main server Khyber. I transferred said hardcore character then to Khyber, where he evidently promptly got a -1 at the end of his name.
I plan to move first my main xxx to a 64-bit server of my choice in one of the coming months, then follow up with all my bank toons to the same server. I already did a check and the name of my main toon is not in use on any other server because it's an awful name (and I created dummies to reseve that name in any case). Hence I expect that the name of that guy will remain xxx on the new server.
But if I move that xxx-1 guy to one of the new 64-bit servers, will he become xxx-1-1? Or xxx-2? Or would transfer not be allowed? Or would the transfer fail horribly and create an unrecoverable corruption of the database followed by a week-long server-crash?
The first would be awesome, the last would be horrible (yet strangely hilarious). The middle two ... meh.
