This is not a troll post.
This is not even a 2025 challenge, it's fundamentals are in testing, not creating.

I never say that's a challenge. I just say about if you're going to do something with only a minimize people can join,let them see,and only them.
I dont get why there are so many weird rules here. But maybe having members of the community testing variants then telling CGAs/Testers their thoughts about those variants could speed up verdicts.
There are 2 rules- Focusing on older variants and only EVC members can join
Before I say anything about this:
Where would you be listing all of your testing games?
We'll be listing them here

Welcome to yet another idea from imchesspro0930 and me! This is known simply as:
TESTLAB
So we've noticed the sharp uptick in UR submissions recently. As of March 1st, there are 53 submissions. And we used to think 21 UR posts were a lot! So to counter this, we've come up with this idea — TestLab. Here's the basics:
1. Only people in the Experienced Variant Creators Club may join the "CGAs" of TestLab. (For reference, the forum in EVC is known as imchesspro0930 testing chamber) (Link to forum post talking about the Experienced Creators Club is here)
2. We will be testing UR variants in order to quality check them and provide our feedback. CGAs may use this input for their verdicts if they so wish to do so.
3. On this forum, you may request us to test positions. However, you are not allowed to suggest your own variant for testing, and we may choose not to test it. The variants tested must be over 3 weeks old, but over a month old is our priority.
4. This has been started mainly to reduce the amount of UR posts available and give the CGAs an easier time delivering verdicts. As the amount of people working on this project will likely be higher, we can can continuously be testing variants and easily reduce the number of UR posts.
5. Note to CGAs: This has been created solely with the intention of helping the CGAs see the gameplay of variants without needing to devote time to it. Our votes are just suggestions given to assist you guys.
BIG UPDATE GUYS:
TestLab is in full swing and we have delievered over 20 verdicts with the help of JKcheesechess. Time to add another thing to my variants CV
This place will be used to list the people who are currently helping the project as testers (think of it as 'community CGAs')
