I have encountered something like that a couple of times today, as well. I played a couple of considerably highly rated players and toward the end of our one minute game I had five seconds to go while they had 11 or 12 seconds. I started doing pre-moves, which only use a 10th of a second. Suddenly the game seems to freeze and then I’m out of time and they have won. I’m not sure what the deal is, but I’m not interested in finding out, since I won’t find out. So I just block them. My games have become more enjoyable since I’ve started blocking people where something funny is clearly going on. I’m not using the C-word, But if it’s a connection issue, then those people need to get that fixed or not play. By the way, people get fined on this site as far as I understand it, if they repeatedly have connection issues and win games as a result. That should make you feel better :-) a big thanks to this site for doing that.
Thanks for responding...maybe finding a way to hack the system is kinda cool...but as far as using it to win games...seems self-defeating if that's what it is...whatever
What is with the connection being dropped? And then re-established?
Seems to happen frequently when opponent is in a losing position...just sayin...
