  And still you dare to argument that you would have not won because
you were using too many imported models?
  Pretty big assumptions you make...

  There's a big difference between using external models and composing
your entire scene solely of external models.
  The objective of the competition was not to show how POV-Ray can be
used to project meshes onto the screen.
