I don't mind the introduction as much, although I'll note that this game is much more complex than a large number of variants here. I won't be the editor to approve this though, because I find the theme needlessly offensive (the king wins by forcibly marrying the queen, and then something about gender and political affiliation?). Furthermore, most of the rules are unclear to me.
As to time for editorial review, the average is a number of months, not hours, due primarily to lack of time of the (volunteer!) editors. Submissions that require more editorial work will take longer, while those needing nothing more than a quick review might get published a short time after coming to our attention. You may have noticed a recent problem brought to our attention involving extremely old submissions that had fallen through the cracks (which have still not entirely been addressed; I hope to have a little time this week).
