Ok lots of mistakes this game...no question. However; I don't understand why it was determined to be a draw. Can someone more knowledgable than me help? It seemed to me white was in a winning position, but system stopped game with "draw".
input?

it was a live game, white ran out of time and since black had "insufficient material" to win, you cannot checkmate with a lone King, the system gave the correct result a draw.
White still had ~5 seconds on the clock, which should have been enough to checkmate.
it's mate in three, so 5 secs is enough. If white hadn't run out of time it makes no sense.

Hmm, that's very unlikely, however if you're SURE then report a glitch.

It could be that white got disconected, and so black got only a draw because of insufficient material.
