aborted games

Can someone explain to me why when you can be in a strong position the game is suddenly and for no apparent reason , aborted. It seems so wholly unfair. Sometimes I think the game seems to be rigged so that you can never really advance much beyond 1200 points. the number of times I have gone on both winning and losing streaks seems a little weird.

There was a scheduled live server restart. When that happens all ongoing games are aborted.

 

As to streaks, that's pretty normal in any chess, even over the board.
