I thought that Esben had changed things so that you couldn't overwrite someone else's pretender, because his server restores the original one. You have to kick anonymous players in order for someone to overwrite / update a nation's pretender, or to allow someone to take those positions that the people have decided not to play.

Edit: Just verified this by uploading a new Ulm, since that player bowed out. The md5 doesn't change, because the server is keeping the original pretender.
