With 2 moves to go before I won, I was suddenly disconnected out and when I came back I received this message. Can somebody explain this to me?

You will probably want to take this up with an admin.  Maybe its a bug.

I am guessing Tony is right. That would make sense.

Presumably you forfeited due to the disconnect--but Black couldn't claim the win because he doesn't have mating material.

that is it. 'live chess' by whatever name works and should work exactly that way. e.g. at fics, set noescape 1, and put 'noescape' in your formula - then the above situation will produce the same result it did here.
