Live chess and lag compensation problem for bullet players.

So, this issue was probably bugging many of us for long time, I find it practically impossible to win endgame vs big lag countries players. I mean Asia, Australia etc where obviously lag must be much higher than from US or Europe/Russia.

Current lag compensation system gives unfair advantage to players with higher lag or simply bad connection. To prove it, here is very simple fact - list of my own games lost by timeout with players country flags, vs list of my games won by timeout with players country flags:

50 games won by timeut, no Asian or African players:

Of course not solely "lag" countries but it's clear that now we have Asian/Indian players, there. 

I am sure that something is wrong and that it's caused by lag compensation which is not done properly. 

On side note, why on earth by browser freezes each time game is ended by checkmate or timeout ? Why it locks cpu to 100% when this happens ?

I read the first 3 lines and wanna say that it's very racist, We have great internet in India 

He means that there are places in India, the rest of Asia and Africa where internet is bad. He is not saying that All of India has bad internet

It has nothing to do with race, but with simple fact that internet backbone routes from India or Oceania are much longer than those from Europe.

Some people in India do have great connection, some not, like in any country rural areas may have troubles.

There are places in America where internet is bad as well

By the way I am Indian. There are a lot more places in India with bad internet

More data:

From 100 won games, I won 45 by timeout.

From 100 lost games, I lost 56 by timeout.

Not huge discrepancy but shows tendency, maybe its worth wasting time and do statistical analysis on 1000 games sample.

Sorry, guys, but 1 min time control isn`t a "real chess". It`s a competition on fastest mouse-hand. I am generally play 2+1 and sometimes play 1 min. From this I can say 1 min players weaker for their rating.  I mean they are too frequently play on time out and don`t bother for quality moves. Players with slow Internet just should not play 1 min.

Not bothering for quality chess is like 10 second chess. in 1 min sure they aren't that accurate but there is enough time to checkmate. you should see the top players playing chess. they play pretty accurately and sure it goes down as the rating does too.

These were 1 min bullet games:

It's not problem for people with slow internet, lag compensation gives unfair advantage to such players (high lag/jitter) over those with low lag. It's irrelevant if its quality chess or not.

FYI estimation of "accuracy" on chess.com is ancient holy war. It`s not accurate at all. Sometimes even I myself play "accurate". But you can see my rating: I simply can not play accurate.

there are flukes and the accuracy on chess.com is an estimate

Where exactly does the advantage come? Is it because they get a little extra thinking time while their moves are in transit? If the lag is pretty stable bi-directionally, you are also getting extra time to think.

The site only forgives up to 2 seconds of lag. The server clocks are what is important so the amount of time you have to make moves is no different, no matter what their lag looks like.

Its impossible to win endgame vs lag player. I dont know details on how lag compensation work, but trust me, I went through many archive pages of my own and other from rating range and almost no won games on time vs players from India. I don't understand why is that.

Coz Indians are smart and know that when their opponent is low on time just make foolish moves and run out their time 😉😉😉, Also stop calling players from India as lag players, we have great internet in India, I'll prove it, wanna play a match?
