It never ceases to amaze me what people will do - whether your speculation
here is correct or not.   When I was developing Lazarus I played some games
on KGS and when some players were dead lost they would stop the game,  mark
all of Lazarus stones as dead and then disappear.     I didn't understand
any motivation for doing this with an unrated game.    This was a few years
ago.
