I again lost from the stalling.
This is this game.
now, imagine if this happens in OTB. any chess players don't take long in the bathroom or taking a drink. they know they are still playing.
LOL
Yeah, I was sure that he (she) already droped this game when I started to drink my tea...
About 25 to 30 years ago in a slow time control over the board tournament I was playing a kid who didn't move when faced with an unstoppable mate on the next move. He had about 1 hour and 15 minutes remaining on his clock while I had only about 6 minutes. After about 45 minutes I made an unsuccessful attempt to have the game adjudicated in my favor.
Hungry at that point I determined it would take me only about 4 minutes to get a sandwich from my car and return to the playing area. After returning with my sandwich he still hadn't moved and he finally moved with a couple of minutes remaining on his clock and of course I proceeded to checkmate him immediately.
This type of stalling was, and presumably still is, common with kids when faced with such a predicament where their being checkmated is imminent. As a matter of fact a few years later I once witnessed a kid who had just recently become a master pull off the same stunt and that then kid is now one of the most well known top level grandmasters.

Bryan, if I would be on your place, I asked this kid... "Boy, what the hell are you doing? Do you have a little bit of conscience ?" )
And, of course, I lost my temper too... for sure.
He was just mocking.
So insolent behavior.
I again lost from the stalling.
This is this game.
Repeat me, please, one more.
How can I inform administration of chess.com about the such unfair game. )
I was waiting for his Rook move 21. R f2 for very long. Then I lost my temper and I went to take some tea in the kitchen.
When I returned to my notebook, chess .com said me that my opponent won over me ! ))
It's really funny.
It's funny because my chances to win were not worse than his.
