Well, next round, I'd add the following rule:
NO use of "blank scenes", i.e., scenes without use of povray scene language.
In other words,
background {rgb 0} //XYZ
is a valid entry; whereas
//XYZ
is not.
As far as the nut who actually VOTED for it, well, have **you** been to see
some of the crap at MOMA in NY City?

so is this allowed ?

probably not, then is below really shortest possible and accepted code ?

from 1e point of rules:
"have it end with //XYZ, where XYZ is a (hopefully) unique 3-digit
combination of your initials and/or numbers"

IMHO the rules should say that the scene must not issue any warnings.

What about isosurface max_gradient warning ?

A warning is a warning?

Why? This would invalidate a lot of perfectly acceptable shortcuts. Suppose I
make an image that works by casting shadows, do I have to have a pigment for
each shape even though they are never seen?

Warp goes on these POV-Ray purist kicks once in a while. He is mostly
harmless but bears considerable watching. Of course it is a ridiculous
requirement. Warnings do not effect the resulting image and will not be
prohibited.

On of my failed entriens was broken even with max_gradient 666 :
Warning: The maximum gradient found was 35382651221311881000000000000.000, but
max_gradient of the isosurface was set to 666.000. The isosurface may contain
holes! Adjust max_gradient to get a proper rendering of the isosurface.
Of course I started this with evaluate but then it took 480 hours to render. It
is my best entry. I wonder should I wait with it for next round or it could be
not fair to use old script ?
