Russ,
A game between Phill Bell and me was declared a checkmate. Phill's king was in check by my queen, but it was not checkmate. It was close, but his king had places to move. I was materially very far ahead and checkmate was coming soon, but this could happen in a
close game and someone may be tagged with a loss unfairly. Please advise.

Russ,
Game 219655 was declared a checkmate. It did not record as a win for me in the win column, but our ratings were adjusted. Could this game be restored? Please advise.

Russ or Chrismo,
Just a reminder-game 219655 has not yet been restored. It was erroneously declared a checkmate.
Thanks,
Bishopford
