A lot is edited out on television so tv-viewers wont know how long some situations last and whether the roboteers knew if their opponent is immobilised or not, but in the pits we see it all on monitors and some people go to view in the audience when the fight promises to be interesting... so it happened that after the fight between X-Terminator and Bulldog Breed much roboteers in the pits were frankly disgusted and some even upset about it. We expect fair-play, honoring it ourselves, and what we call in Dutch natrappen or after-kicking does -in my point of view- not add to the show and spectacle. Please remember that practically all roboteers have to pay for the (sometimes really expensive) parts themselves and that non-battle damage is not appreciated !
