Will you consider it a stalemate if no party is able to make any further moves?

Btw a Chess Olympiad was declared drawn and shared winners after internet issues.
I would have probably considered whoever was up material as the winner, as long at there was sufficient time left.

I guess it had an active connection through the game end though, maybe web sockets. I was afraid it wasn't recorded because I played quite well!

There are actual rules for stalemate, so it would probably just be a draw.
Probably an abort. Draw awards Elo.
