In Response To: Forfeiture / flag falling (Matt Cohn-Geier)

What is the rule in chess?

I am thinking that you must call the flag to claim the win. If your flag falls in a gin position tough beans, you still lose with the exception that it is a draw if your opponent has insufficient mating material. Is that all correct? What if the player does not notice the opponent's fallen flag and then his falls also?
