Are you certain of this martty? That's not the way it currently seems to work.

When I took over my category recently there was quite a long queue to work with - many months. Site suggestions were all logged by date received and their source.

There were three or even four instances of some sites, and each submittal was at its proper place in the queue by date. New suggestions did not overwrite the old, nor were they pushed to the bottom of the queue.

Perhaps your experience has been different in another area of the ODP.

Best regards!
