Default Multiplayer Turn Timer

So in my current ranked game, the timer ran out on my opponent's turn and rather than autoskipping it or something else you would expect, it is now at negative forty minutes and counting. What exactly is the timer for?

I asked the same question on the Steam forum - I didn't get an explanation of why it's there, but they did say that it's not currently behaving as intended.

FWIW, when I finally exited to main menu it gave me the victory.

Do you mean you were awarded a win without actually finishing the game up?

Yes, because I wasn't going to sit there for hours waiting for some guy who was clearly AFK to actually take his turn.

As I understand it, desired behavior is "when opponent's timer runs out, you get the victory." Auroch comment?
