How am I supposed to end a game when my opponent runs the clock down rather than resign? He had obviously lost with 25 mins to go and offered me a draw which I declined. Must have gotten into a huff at that and refused to play his turn.
Is there any way to end the game with a win without waiting for him to be timed out?
No. You can resign or wait.
In longer games play only "trusted" people. The issue of players abandoning is being addressed. Many players are losing open challenge priveleges.
