Clipka posted the CSG first. You posted the math first. Can we call it a 
tie?

That train was impressive. Used prisms*, so, imo, a whole other animal.

A CSG (primitive primitives) sub-round of the tcrtc might draw some 
interesting entries.

* if you count prisms (and sweep approximations), you have to (?) count 
triangles, and is it really CSG at that point? It's a somewhat arbitrary 
distinction, but "real" CSG makes for a better game, imo.
