How do I 'seek' for a match in Variants?

Hi everyone,

I’ve been trying to figure this out, but can’t quite get it. For example, if I wanted to seek a King of the Hill game, is there a way to look for both 1-minute and 3-minute games at the same time, like how I could do in the regular Play section?

So far, I’ve only managed it by cancelling the original seek and then starting a new one. Probably just me not being familiar with how the Variants server is set up, but I thought I’d ask here.

Thanks in advance for any help 🙂

Like, using the Lobby?

I'm not sure what I am using, to be honest.

Click the Lobby, you can find all the KOTH seeks there.

Here?

Yeah, then select "KOTH" if I'm understanding your problem correctly.

Just click to the variant you want to play, then click to the Lobby from here. Just like in #3.

Okay, however, I am still unable to actively seek 2 types of matches

Thank you for helping me out. Maybe I am just being very dense 😆

I don't think you can do that, but if it's for the same variant you can check from the lobby. If it's not, you can still do it.

Turn off invite players so that you aren’t making a private seek, press play, change the time control, and then make another queue, and you can then have two seeks for different time controls

Haha, success!

Thanks for your guidelines 😛🤩

ow can i rename my custom variant. And do you make your variant aceptable to chess.com variant list.

(Sorry for 6-day late response lol)

For the first part, only admins can rename positions

For the second part, all the information is available in the club directory of the Custom Variants Club
