I suppose you want to know why you did not get a draw by 3 fold repetition. That does not happen automatically. You have to claim it by clicking the draw button.

No, if it looks like it happened automatically, then your opponent claimed it.

Odder yet that his posts are gone. Merely closing an account doesn't do this, as a normal course.
