I don't know why, but it just happened to me in a tournament. This was while the board was stll "loading" at beginning of game. Beyond annoying. Also often when I 'lose connection', it looks like opponent's time is ticking, but when connection is restored, all the time had been counted against me.
"game abandoned"
Sort:
I just unintentionally "lost" seven games in a row. I would start a game and then it would disappear and the message I received was "game abandoned" After a few times of this then I would get back one of the "abandoned" games, but already lost it on time! Do you know what happened? Thanks.
