With time to kill, I checked some of my disconnected games. Intriguing results I found. Live Chess awarding disconnection as "resigned" instead of "disconnected" or "abandoned".

In this example, I won the first 3 games, and the 4th was disconnected. If I recall correctly, I was good on time and ahead (i think) then boom... i got disconnected. I clicked resume hoping to get back.. never did.

Shouldn't these disconnect losses be described appropriately? I know the saying a rose in any other name would still be a rose.. but we are not talking about a rose here.. obviously.
