Hi there,
Can someone please explain to me why, if my opponent abandoned our game, he was granted the win?
I assumed that if a game were abandoned, or resigned, the player abandoning it automatically concedes defeat? It seemed a bit unfair with loads of moves left to play.
Thanks,

You were the one who abandoned.
You probably just lost your connection and were not even aware when it happened.
To me it looked like I was connected and his timer was going down, not mine. That's annoying.
