Al,

I believe you missed my point. If a robot is to be suspended, it must sit on or grapple onto another robot. This action will (in most cases) be outside the bumperzone.

If the rules are called, as you stated in post 12 then the suspended robot will recieve a penalty for purposeful interaction outside the bumperzone.
