The only pseudonym in play here is for whoever is running the Challenge.

Actually there is that requirement when signing off on a patch, so participants in the Challenge will need to use their real name when submitting patches.

The ID that gets assigned is just used for tracking within the Challenge scripts and such. It is also used in some of the tasks, but not those that are headed upstream.
