Hi I was looking at this game 5275684. Nallapuh vs Chizza. White won on time with just a bare king. I was under the impression a bare king vs no time is a draw because white can't force mate. Even a king and bishop vs no time is a draw. If you can't force mate, it's a draw. I think this is a rule. I know this is in practice at FICS (free internet chess server) and more than likely it is at ICC. I once had king and bishop and "won" on time at FICS. It was a draw. I could have even mated if black moved his king to the corner and smothered it. I couldn't force mate though. That was the argument I got from the administrators there. How is this a loss here???
