My opponent ran out of time, but the game did not end, it's just stuck. It has said that he has "< 60 seconds" left for several hours now. Was wondering how long it will take to go into "completed"?

You have to go into online settings to fix this.  See where I have a check next to "autowin on time"? You need to do the same.

Settings - Online Chess

 

These settings control who you play with, how many games you play, and what the game looks like!NOTE: These settings can't help you win... that's a setting in your head! :)

Sorry about no check marks in the above post...They seemed to copy and paste OK....

Ah ok, I didn't see the "claim win" option at the bottom - just assumed it was automatic.

 

Thanks for the responses!
