Fide rules are clear on this - if a game is stalemated and a player loses on time the game is a draw - so how come this does not apply on chess .com????

Thank you for comments folks - specially adude 23 - on the scoresheet my move was shown(Ke7 as I recall - so perhaps the software gave me a loss on time but still entered the move)

anyroad up - it was annoying!!!

Not stalemate because it is White to move.

It looks like it was your move, so the position wasn't stalemate.

Seems impossible for stalemate and loss on time to occur together.
