It is legal but it does not change the fact that it is a bug in cases it changes the result of the game. There is no low in chess that it is illegal to lose games. It is illegal to do it >and still win or draw the game I agree that losing on time in cases that it change the result of the game is a bug but you can do it sometimes and still draw the game. If you lose on time and your opponent has only a king then the chess rules say that it is a draw. If you lose on time and the opponent has king and knight against king and queen then it is a draw because there is no way for you to help the opponent to do a checkmate. Uri
