Yes, that is how i interpereted the rule, however i asked the head ref at the Pittsburg regional if that was the case and she said that the count would start over once the robot backed off. I did not agree with this interperetation of the rule because you could pin a robot for the entire match that way and never give them the chance to escape or move in any way.
