Apologies if this has come up previously
Is there a known error where it looks like your opponent doesn't move and his clock counts down only you don't a timeout win?
When you then exit the game you get a message telling you you lose.
If so, what does your opponent have the same experience?

uh are we talking about correspondence or blitz chess?
edit: ah my bad didn't read the title. A different clarifying question. You were playing said blitz chess on this site and not on say... playchess? If you were playing here I don't see how this is possible.

Originally posted by Joe McDIt happens when your connection is too slow and effectively you timeout (at least on the other guy's computer) so you lose. On your computer his clock is running but the connection will have been lost.

If ever you think this has happened just try sending a message ...... if it doesnt appear in message box you've lost connection.
Happens to me all the time with my mobile connection.
