Exact URL of where the bug happened

Game imported using: https://lichess.org/paste
Imported game: https://lichess.org/gAuVfxJG

Steps to reproduce the bug

  1. Go to Tools > Import Game from the menu.
  2. Paste this PGN, which I assert is valid for a game drawn by agreement (very fortunate for white):
[Event "Southampton Chess League - Division 4"]
[Date "2025.02.06"]
[White "Bracken Dawson"]
[Black "Abdullah Arafat"]
[Result "1/2-1/2"]
[WhiteElo "1450"]
[BlackElo "1500"]
[Variant "Standard"]
[TimeControl "4800+10"]
[Termination "Normal"]

  1. Press Import Game
  2. The imported game will show that black resigned in the top left, which is not what the PGN shows.

What did you expect to happen?

The game should show as a draw after import

What happened instead?

The game shows as a win for white after import, even though the PGN still shows the [Result "1/2-1/2"] tag and the 1/2-1/2 termination marker, which lichess has now annotated with { resigns. }.
