Aborted correspondence games are listed as draws in the event side-panel.

This is true for all variants, so far as I can tell. The games aren't recorded as draws (it's just a cosmetic issue), but it's still a bit odd, and I'd imagine it wouldn't be a headache to fix.
Especially considering how many people think you are supposed to move instantly when responding to correspondence game requests and abort when you don't, thus ruining your attempt at starting a game.
Thank you Thibault -- I also noticed this MINOR format issue.

The thread on this issue represents a microcosm of the problems of user comments on upgrades... As someone who is now playing mostly correspondence, the notification for ended correspondence games was a fantastic upgrade --- regardless of whether abort games were called draws... As the initial poster intellegently commented, this is only a cosmetic issue. I would much rather have an aborted game called a draw than to recieve no notice at all.... This would be especially true if one has 24+ games of variable time going. And, that is not uncommon
