I knew this one had been discussed in the past. Do you know why it didn't work?

It is NOT the most popular variation, but many of those that like Open Rush also like Corner.
Your proposal is different in a significant way to the Corner variation at IYT. There, the setup includes an additional diagonal for each player with 8 more pieces than you proposed.

Dark Prince: do you think it may be worth exploring?

I have read other posts expressing interest in a corner variation.
I would think it worthwhile to find out how many others would like such a variation and discuss the parameters with those interested.
For me, the Corner variation at IYT is an equal favorite with Open Rush. I play those 2 variations almost exclusively.
As to the parameters here, I would consider Joshi's 7 diagonal proposal as well as possibly an 8th diagonal.
If only 7, we might consider removing a 1 and a mine or a 1 and 2 as Joshi suggests.
If 8 diagonals, we might instead consider adding additional pieces and/or leaving squares within the 8x8 setup triangle unoccupied.

I also liked the corner version at IYT. I quitted the site because there wasn't anymore a message board and a lot of good players moved to BK.
I suggest a corner version with a 9x9 board, that would be in the middle between Open Espionage (10x10) and Small Espionage (8x8).
We should meet the requirements of a lot of players.

Sounds good, and it could use the 7x7 triangle setup zone suggested by Joshi.
