Next time you post a position (or anyone else), make sure to add the time control you intended for the position. I'm not gonna call this out for not meeting requirements (this rule is mostly to avoid confusion since some people will test in multiple time controls, which no one does for WOFs anyway) because all of your games are 1/4|1.

On an unrelated note: green and blue are patzers, so they won't ever mate someone unless there are no other moves. The glitch that samuel referenced happens when a zombie mates a player and ends the game. The remaining player doesn't get points for mating the zombie, so this can often cause 0-0 ties, but would not be an issue here because the zombies do not actually mate. I'm actually not sure what the zombies are doing at all... but using patzers as moving walls is an interesting concept.

if they were radows than there's a small chance they would get check...

Interesting idea, but could still use some work to find the best version of this. Our feedback from testing: 1) Elephants are very strong, to the point where the first move (Red) has a noticeable advantage - sure, it's WOF, and first move advantages are allowed, but still, if we're trying to find the most enjoyable version of this game, some more balance would help. 2) 1-check is a bit too sharp. I guess it's kind of the same argument, but 3- or even 2-check would make this better. See if you can find other improvements, and definitely submit a revision. This is 80% of the way towards being a very fun WOF. Thanks!
