Glyn:

Since I was in one of those fights, I'd make the point that robots are usually counted out for 30/10 seconds, because robots can lose control for a number of reasons and get it back. A robot that has left the arena and clearly has no means to continue or regain mobility IN the arena, then its out by knockout. Until we see a robot that can get back in the arena, thats the way it is.

BTW, In my fight with you, you hit the outer wall before I hit the inner wall, my link came out when I hit the inner wall, so I was still mobile as you exited.
