[AUR noob] Can't update my PKGBUILD

I know I had to re-submit my package in order to update it but I get "You are not allowed to overwrite the catchchallenger-mmorpg-single-player-git package."

I know I have messed up with this package and the other with the same basename ( catchchallenger-mmorpg-git-single-player-git) but I'm frustated that I can't delete/update the package I own.

So far, I tried:
- flag out-of-date
- change pkgrel
- change pkgver
- disown/adopt

Forgive me, I'm learning and the wiki just saying "If you maintain a package and want to update the PKGBUILD for your package just resubmit it."

I'll submit a removal request for the other package if I finally can update this one. If not, I will send two removal request...

Some mailing lists you do have to subscribe first, I guess this is one of them. Wasn't aware of that.

It would be worth subscribing anyway, so you can converse with whoever helps you out with this. You can always unsubscribe later.
