Concise description:Specifics/Details:- Why not have a Chinese language forum among the "international forums"
How this will benefit the site and/or other comments:- Mandarin speaking people(ie me) will get to communicate

Well the norwegians have a forum at 102 players, so I suppose it wouldn't be too much of a stretch to grant the Chinese at 70 players a forum?

Yes please. Looking at the German forum, there hasn't been any activity the last few months. Besides me.

Not sure if people from Hong Kong speed Chinese but if so that should add to the number of users...

Speeding Chinese aside - it might be a good idea to find out whether the software supporting the forums support Chinese script in the first place. Some online discussion boards certainly do not support Chinese script.
Thumps up to the suggestion in any case, though!

I believe we do have UTF-8 coding, and can support most language packages.
If any language currently without an International Forum wants one, they should first look into creating a Language Usergroup, as has happened in the past. If activity and membership are promising, a new International Forum may appear.

you got speed on the brain.
Jay, you got your answer from the man himself. Start recruiting for a private forum

Aw man. Last time I started a Singapore usergroup I recruited people that didn't know we had a forum, and didn't even know what the usergroup was for! I'll give it a try though

You shouldn't recruit based on nationality unless there are a lot of players from that particular country (ex.there's more than 2000 Canadian players on this site).
Just recruit all Sinophones.

i see german, finnish, swedish etc.. but no chinese
it's a big country with quite a lot of internet users. might help to bait the trap with their mother tongue
and it'd be nice to put some chinese into the forums. and very easy to do

I don't think there's ever been much of a demand for one.
A lot of the more active players from Hong Kong and China speak English as their first language, too.
Are you in China right now?

As of right now, there are only 36 active users from China. And at the most, I believe only 3 or so post in the forums.

I think in Hong Kong it's mainly me and Chariot of Fire these days. He's a Brit, and I'm a Yank. You'd need a forum for traditional characters HK and Taiwan and one for simplified Chinese for greater China and Singapore.
There are actually more users on the forums from Singapore, but that might be because English is commonly used there.
It'd be great to tap the Chinese market, although I don't know how many folks in China know what Risk is. It's sold here in Hong Kong, though.
