deemed abandoning while thinking

So this is clearly a bug. It has happened to me several times and just did

I was playing a 3 min game, thinking in a critical position for 1-2 mins, wondering if I was about to get an “opponent wins by abandonment” - and did.

I am sure I was +2 or something. And I sure as hell didn’t abandon

It’s the game just completed. MeisterYanic vs PassatDream (me)

Can you please (1) lmk what’s up with this? And (2) restore my rating?

Thanks

Thanks. Wow. Not a bug but an absolutely ridiculous change to the rules of the game recognized in every competitive chess game in history. Well done
