ok....I have an interesting take on this situation because I was standing less then 3 feet from the action

at first sight it did look like you guys were trying to flip the robot but up close you could see that the other robots caster was stuck through the top of your robot, (through your light hole?) and from what I saw it looked as though you were trying to get free from them and lifting your ramp was the only way that was going to be possible.... I think that it was a tough call to make and I can definitely see how it could have been seen as intentional flipping.....I also think it didn't help your situation when your whole team cheered when they flipped

the picture is where I was standing
