You can't create and play variants on variants.world, you can only do that on chess.com/variants

But how to post it on Variant world.

Spend some effort and figure it out. Read a little bit and maybe read what they said in the post because guess what, You can't post without spending some effort!

There's a specific club to do this: https://www.chess.com/club/custom-variants

I believe that you need to type in nine game numbers, if that makes sense

Not necessarily; it would’ve been nice for qilp to have cross posted the announcement in that club as that is the more relevant community, but NCV submission is purely a V.W thing now.

Hi @lukah2010

1. Please see this guide to the Variants Editor, and feel free to ask any question regarding it in the discussion thread of that guide.

2. After creating a custom position, and choosing custom rules, click the big green button "Play", and wait for random players to join or invite your friends to test your variant.

3. Type the game number or paste a link to the game you played to the big input field in the center on variants.world, and then fill the rest input fields with more testing games you played, following the requirements (you will get notified about them by red messages on the bottom). This, as well as the rest, should be very straightforward.
