resign is not a gtp command, it's a possible move that your engine can play.
If your program plays an illegal move such as suicide, it loses the games on CGOS. The issue with resign was incorrectly stated by me. If you resign you lose but of course you expected to lose anyway or else you would not have resigned. This is not about resignation. However if you don't "clean up" the game a program that does NOT resign or pass can take advantage and beat you unfairly. Just remember these are not Japanese rules, even if the game is "played out" you must clean up dead groups or else the opponent gets to keep them.
