sandbagging alert

i resigned a few games in a row because lichess was pairing me too quickly and i needed to pause. i swear i wasn't trying to boost or sandbag. is there anything i can do?
There a button, when you finish a tournament match that says pause. I don't know where it exactly is on pc but on phone it was above the exit to tour ament button.
i know that. before i could pause, i just got paired again.
That button is also there on the match page. So before it's even possible that you get matched.
I don't know if it's the same for everyone, but when I don't do nothing after a tournament game, neither Return nor Pause, then Lichess stays on that game page, and I only get paired again when I explicitly return to the tournament.
You arent flagged for sandbagging. It was most likely a timeout.
Don't sign up for a game you can't play, if you make an error and get hit with a penalty or flag for it there should be no complaints.
