I don't think it'll get accepted. You should change up the pieces some.

How do you put something up to get accepted

Submit it on variants world. See pinned forums for more info

new version

now there are regicide here so It's impossible to mate kings and they can take everything.

this seems fun or not I'm still no idea

strategy here:

check correct king 11 times to free your chancellor. use rook and pawns to corverd squares to chase the kings to your opennet's side.

any thoughts or advice?

(I change it to +20 now)

How do you free reds chancellor if green can’t be mated

Piece spam, and it is very imbalanced. Look at "How to (Not) Make a variant" for some tips on what you shouldn't make.

Thanks I looked at it

I’ll be posting a lobotomy variant here soon… (DRAMATIC SUSPENSE MUSIK)

VishTheFish771

Guess what time it is? 
Lobotomy time 😈

WELCOME TO LOBOTOMY FOREST (probably will change the name lol)Welcome once again to yet another lobot submission. I noticed a sharp uptick in forest submissions recently and I thought, "Huh, why don't I join as well?" So here we are! 
Here is the general idea of this variant-
1.The red pusher bishops are NOT useless. Basically, the check clock in the bottom right? Once red's royal dies, the hidden hill squares are revealed! (It would be cool if I could randomize the hill squares, but whatever)
2.The piece choice is a reasonably weak piece choice but it's relatively easy to defend your royal with your king and strategic pawn movements.
3. Unlike the more recently submitted variants, I feel the check clock and the very powerful promotion suffiecently diffrentiates this from Enchanted woodland, mini forest, etc.


What are your thoughts (BTW this is like my 5th currently ongoing project)

Also NWO recommended a bunch of changes to me, will show the updated version soon...

As a bot gimmick creator, nothing infuriates me other than lobotomy with the gimmick.

Trust me this is actually good. See my archive

This seems ok-ish. Make the n-check less for the players, while making the n-check for the red-bot more (around 30-35). Make the koth squares less accessible, while making it easy to defend koth.

Why yellow 771 yellow could be 1

KTBC

There is no way to win. If blue mates green yellow just moves back and forth

KTBC

Yellow cannot be gotten to

That is the point. Yellow is the fulcrum of the clock, so it's N-check doesn't matter. 771+ is probably because his name is @VishTheFish771.

Since Yellow is a bot, you do not need to checkmate Yellow to win.

KTBC

I didn’t know that you don’t have to mate bots

The KOTH squares are already very hard to access in the opening, and I changed the promotion rank to 5th and changed the promotion to mustang, archbishop and alibaba
