Lost game after closing game tab

I closed the game tab on the browser, on purpose, and immediately opened it again. I was of the game for maybe 30 seconds, probably less, and had 01:46 on the clock in a 2:00 game, my opponent had 15 seconds left. I have more than 14000 games without a background of disconnecting. I think its very unfair to lose a game in these conditions. Maybe this feature should have a bigger time tolerance or/and have in consideration the player background.
Im having same issues, sometimes my windows crash sometimes wifi problems, i was picking biger time limits but doesnt mater, 1-2 minutes and game is lost. At least make delay according to the time player have for game, like 30% or somthing .. Or beter let player specify it when creating the game.
