Bot dead?

I was playing a game (59933) and the bot I was playing against expended all of its time and reserve time. After the reserve time was expanded the clock continued to tick and the bot still didn't move. I quit the game after 10 minutes or so. If you watch the game now it looks as though the bot actually moved. Yet, it did not.

Sometimes, though uncommonly, the game window gets disconnected from the server. The bot will submit a move to the server, but that move is never reported to you. If the bot's time appears to run out but you are not given a message that you have won, you should close the window and reopen it, and the move the computer made will be shown.  Hopefully, not too much of your own time will have been expended. I think the new interface Omar is working on corrects this problem to a great degree.
