I'm sure you understand why updating your post to meet the requirements, then asking 15 minutes later why no one has reviewed it is pretty demanding.

Nevertheless, we will get your testing done, rest assured. The WOF tournaments for this week have already been set, so even if we review it right now, the soonest it would get played would be next Monday. For that reason, it doesn't really matter when we test it, so long as it's sometime this week. Typically, we do our testing on Fridays, or the weekend, so you can expect to hear a response from us sometime then, or sooner. There's no need to pester us to give your position its due attention. It will happen, and soon.

24 hours seems obsessive I think that should be changed

The point behind this rule is so that you actually think about your position before posting it. I could dream up some very strange thing in five minutes, and get some test games, but it wouldn't be the best position I could make it.

some games take only like 1 minute. Do you expect me to play 1440 games?

No. But we do expect you to think about the various aspects of your position, as well as how they could be improved (That's why the 24 hour rule exists).

The rule doesn't mean you have to play games for 24 hours. It just means the last game has to be at least 24 hours after the first one. You wouldn't have to play 1440 games.

Hey @seanziminggao,

Thanks for the submission! This game falls into a category we've been seeing more frequently recently: Games which don't use any particularly novel ideas. Yes, WOFs are all about luck, and this game certainly has it, but also, it's the singularly most-important factor in determining the winner. You bring your general to the centre, and then just shuffle back and forth waiting for a spot to open up. The 3-check doesn't matter much, because the Patzer-bots won't give check unless it's the only available move. Anyway, like I said, these ideas aren't exactly new and exciting, and we already have quite a few WOF games which are pretty much the same thing, but in different forms.

I thought this was coming, he has a different version with a pawns and patzer has king with 3 check.

Ok. Thank you for the feedback. Hope my next Wof will be accepted
