Don't Want to Sound Rude

First off, you can't change a rule for the game just because of one incident. Your HP tripped and hurt herself for that I am sorry for her, but FIRST is very close to a sport in which people get hurt some times cause it is there fault but most by accident. I have dislocated a shoulder and broken 2 fingers, in the last 2 years.
Secondly, FIRST wants to hold a certain number of matches in the 3 days alloted in order to provide ample competition and fairness, so your HP time can't be too long.
Thirdly the ten seconds was supposted to be a challenge, there is no challenge when you can walk out there, do some laps, play a game a solitare and return to the mat. I think you should be more worried about your friend than the 15 seconds that you lost.
