Now that is has been brought up I am curious to what players think about
players running positions under such pseudonym. Do you mind? Does it annoy
you greatly - what action should we take should we think that something like
that is happening? What proof would we need?Very curious about this one.

Well if people wants to play two possitions in one game (not counting keeping a nation alive until a replacement can be found), they should try to get a game set up with that option.
If that dont work, play under you own name dont hide behind a pseudonym. You owe your team mates that. If you would play under a pseudonym to just to win a game, get a life.
What would annoy me is if people wont stand up an use their own name and take responsibility for their actions (this is a general view I hold).
What proof it would take? In these times with free-emails every where it would be pretty hard to come up with a proof if the player was just a little bit intelligent and most of us are.
A couple of actions that could point in the direction of a two nation guy in a one nation game could be that one of the nations could only be reached through his friend. A sudden transfer of a lot of "un neccesary" popcenters and "unneeded" goldtransfers to a nation in the late game to boost the recieving nations VP's. It is NOT a proof but if it happens too often....
What to do??? I don't know. Ask people to be honest and if they wont let the rest of us know the this guy is not above using pseudonyms the we can decide with our selfs wether or not we will play with him. I know my choice.
