That is entirely possible but then it seems like the system is still messed up.  The reason being that if the game lasted for 38 minutes and I was there for 36 minutes and won a good hand full of awards (flags, kills, citadel upgrades) then shouldn't the system be smart enough to still track it as a win for me and give me the favor?

It's a crappy situation to be sure, but it's not won until it's won. The solution here is for us to track down the causes of the disconnects and fix them (which we're working on, as with all the network issues), rather than to try and project what peoples' stats should be if they finished a game that they didn't.

One other thing too, if you look here http://pantheon.demigodthegame.com/tournaments/player/31479/ you will see that I have 1 game under my belt for this tournament and it says I won it.  The game length was 38 minutes which should tell you that this is the same game I mentioned above that the other page said that I lost.

So it seems no matter how you hash it there is still a bug in here somewhere .
