They have Android in China, right? If so, why aren't there ever any Chinese (based in China) players playing? I've pretty much played all nationalities except there it seems.

Access to Android doesn't matter. There are over 25,000 players with their country listed as China on the Rapid leaderboards, which is the most popular time control on site.

Thanks. I only ever play 20 min games as my brain can't operate much quicker. 25K does seem kinda small considering how populous the country is though.

first off internet ban

also maybe try not to play at 3 am china time?

i mean maybe the reason youre not playing people from a certain country is because whenever you play, its night there...

Thanks, but I play at all times of the day across multiple time zones due to extensive travelling.

The country also limits their internet, so that may also play into it some. 10|0 is the most popular time control, so it's also likely there are a lot less players in that pool willing to play 20 minute games.
