False Resignation

Avatar of open_book

While I'm no stranger to connection issues, today I was told that I "resigned" a game after a brief disconnection. The normal "Reconnecting - game will abort in 45 seconds" message appeared. I closed the app on my phone and reopened it. The game was gone. I closed and reopened again. All of this took about twenty seconds. The game was still gone. I scrolled down to my game history and saw that I lost the game. When I opened it, it displayed the message "[Opponent] won by resignation."

I believe closing the app, or leaving the app during a game counts as a resignation.

I would believe it, except that this is what I always do to restore my connection, and this is the first time I received a resignation from it.
