I looked into this and it looks like there's a blindspot in the Github API 
reporting where it includes a bunch of checks that finished but doesn't list 
checks that haven't started yet at all. In this case the bot reports success 
because there are no pending checks.

Not sure how we can easily improve this since the event that triggers the bot 
simply doesn't contain the missing information. I'll dig further, maybe we can 
just list expected checks somehow in the config to avoid this.
