N00b here. Why does an opponent losing on time not count as a win for me? My game with suicideking ended with him woosing out, after only a couple of moves, and not continuing the game. He didn't formally resign, just quit playing - did I not win that game on the time element?

Your game is still in progress, apparently you didn't click on the skull.
