One could argue that G14 (Strategies aimed solely at forcing the opposing ALLIANCE to violate a rule are not in the spirit of FRC and are not allowed. Rule violations forced in this manner will not result in assessment of a penalty on the target ALLIANCE.) would apply.
I think there are situations that are "unintentional", so the G14 exception would keep you from being penalized, but not intentional enough for the opposing team to get a G14 violation. In other words, both the G14 and G29 violations are waived.
Note: In the G29 defintion: " Pinning is transitive through other objects." Thus, it could be argued that the Team pinned itself through you, and you were the transitive object, and not the pinning object.
