Hello, I've run into problem.

Few times by now I lost game because I supposedly "abandoned" game. I was simply thinking about move. Clocks stops at random time and says I've abandoned game. I play 10 minutes and from my understanding there is no time limit for move. Am I missing something?

 

Thanks for your help

There is something now that looks at how long is left in the game time and considers that you've abandoned the game when you spend half of it on one move. However, you still had four minutes left on your clock in your screenshot so that wouldn't appear to apply in your game.

More likely, you simply lost your connection.

Looks like there was reason to think at the end of the game. Had you decided on a move?

And yes, you missed something earlier in the game on move 17.

It appears that you are not the only person this has happened to today.

It may be a bug. If it happens again, you should use the bug reporting tool:
