I have played various games against other competitors who manipulate the timer in the final seconds of their game and they manage over 10 moves without losing a single second on their timer. Is this normal.
I can send an example of a game I have just played.

If you're on the app, it may not show fractional seconds.

If you look at the games in the website archive, you'll see they actual had time.
