NO, there is no such 2-min guarantee of waiting!
Besides, even the meanings of "connection" and "disconnection" can be confusing to players:
If the game server does not receive a timely (i.e. within time-per-move) game-related communication from player A, then if player B is ahead, Player B will be allowed to claim a win after one time-per-move expiration.

At GameColony.com you can play games of skill only -- play for free or play for $prizes!.
According to the statutes of most states in the United States, gambling is defined as: "risking something of value upon the outcome of a contest of chance". (Also see No Gambling!). The skill (as opposed to chance) is predominant in games of skill. Playing games of skill for $prizes, therefore, has nothing to do with gambling as it is not a contest of chance -- the more skillful player will win far more often. The chance element of a 'gamble' is either insignificant or missing. When players compete in tournaments or games of skill for $prizes -- it is "competitive entertainment" rather then "gambling". The more skilled winner will always win more matches, tournaments and $prizes.
