You have a won game, you wait to deliver mate in one, 5 mins left , your opponent must resign, but.. nothing. you wait , his clock runs down, wtf is he doing? 5 sec left he makes a move or resigns. Sound familiar to anyone? Are they hoping for disconnection? That you get bored and leave? Were they abducted by aliens ? I want that 5 mins of my life back you loser.

They are hoping that YOU will be abducted by aliens during that five minutes.

Long odds, sure, but resigning offers even less chance of a win... and the little green guys seem to be interested in chess players.
