Subject: Strange things going on at the ChessBase server

I just played a game and I was winning. Then my opponent took a long time
resigning or make a move, so just to be on the safe side I pressed "reconnect".
I get the message that I am reconnected. My opponents clock starts again with
the time he had when I made my last move. This time I let it run until his time
is up, but it doesn't show 0-1. Just time. I press "claim win" and again
"reconnect" but every time the clock starts with the same time. I go to the
other screen (players and challenges section) and see things changing, so I must
be online. After a while I finally see 0-1 (win for me), but my rating dropped
and his has gone up. I try to watch him play, it says he is playing, but I can't
go to his board. I try another player and there it works fine. I examine all
games played at that time. My opponent is not there, although in the
playersection it still says he is playing. I can't wait for another update.
