Rougue Move

Dear Lichess,

I have just playeda game and without touhing the screen the computer moved my rook from A8 to A7. My opponent took my rook with his bishop. I did not play this move. There was no reason for me to play it. I f you look at the game I'm sure you will agree.

My opponent was yuriyminberg. The game was played at 09/06/20 15.30.

Please investigate.

Yeah, black's move 12. Why would I possibly play that?
It might be an involuntary premove activated by hovering with the mouse.
Anyway, it is not OK to leave the game instead of resigning.
There was no way I was reseigning because of a move I hadden played.

I sent my opponent a message saying I was "not continuing".

I did not touch the mouse and I had no intention of moving the rook. The cursor was outside of the boundaries of the board. I was simply looking at the screen when in a micro second my rook was moved and my opponent took it.
