Why does the game become "drawn" after I win???? I have won two games and both were automatically labeled "drawn." Any help???

Looking at your games I think you're referring to the games where you've stalemated your opponent. Despite having a material superiority you've left your opponent no legal move to make, hence the game is drawn.
Ouch!

By your own reasoning you also managed to 'draw' a game which you 'lost' ;-)

In your game against hooks515 (1220565), you left his lone king nowhere to go after 75.Qc6 so the game was drawn. If you replay the game from either "Game History" or "Analysis Board" screens from before your 75th move, consider playing 75.Qa7..then if he had replied 75...Ke8, 76.Qe7/Qa8/Qb8 lead to checkmate. If instead after 75.Qa7 he had played 75...Kc8, then 76.Kd6 (NOT 76.Ke7 which is stalemate again!) leaves him only 76.Kd8, which allows you any of 77. Qd7/Qa8/Qb8 all lead again to checkmate. Hope this is useful for you.
