Apr 23, 2008 12:40:57 Once you're logged into your RPGA account click the "GM, Memberships and Personal Information" link.

This will take you to the DCI site, from there, there's a "Personal Info" link that you can use to change your address info.

Apr 25, 2008 17:16:16 RPGA numbers and DCI numbers are separate, at least for the moment.

It so happens that the system now creates a DCI number out of your RPGA number, but your RPGA number remains the variable-digit number that you got on your RPGA card. You cannot put a DCI number into the RPGA system, and you can't put an RPGA number into the DCI system, though if you log into the RPGA members' site you can find a DCI number based on your RPGA number which I imagine would work in the DCI system if you wanted to use it. I've not tried it (never played anything that requires a DCI number) and I have no idea what those extra digits are - my RPGA number is the same one I've always used.

It depends on how many digits you have in your RPGA#

My number (986xxxx) had a 310 appended to it for DCI (310986xxxx). I've never played anything for the DCI, but it's good to know I already have a number if I change my mind.

I think the current RPGA numbers (410xxxxxxx or 411xxxxxxx) are the same numbers you'd get for DCI (no need to add 310) but that's a "reasoned guess."
