I’ve noticed over the past few months that some games are either timed inaccurately which is a big bug that needs fixing or there is some type of glitch that’s giving the loser the win when both players have 2-0.1 seconds left I have multiple screenshots of this and it isn’t the first time but it just happened to me when it said I had 1.3 seconds left then jumped to me after the other replayed a move with 0.2 seconds left and the game just automatically gave the win to the other player when I had more time??

You're most likely seeing lag and if the game is counted as lost then you ran out of time on the server before you could make a move.

It could be due to high lag between you and the server. Check out the following for some things you can do to minimize issues.
