Abort halfway through game?

Sort:

Why did this game abandon!? We were on move 9 and I still had 23 seconds left and it auto aborted (and awarded my opponent the win???)

Last time I checked, my time has to hit zero and or I need to get checkmated for my opponent to be allotted the win?

The site has a long move timer that can cause abandonment before move 10 has been completed.

wait so if you're losing before move 10? you can just stall out your clock and the game will get aborted? or this is only for bullet>

I mis-spoke, it can cause abandoments, not aborts. I'll fix my post.
