Tryx contest with no real print

May I ask why two models that were not physically printed, but only rendered using AI, won a prize in the MakerWorld TRYX contest?

Isn’t it stated somewhere that models must be physically printed?
Also, when submitting photos, are they required to be real photos of printed models?

There are people who created excellent projects and invested time and money to actually print their models, so I’m trying to understand how the evaluation criteria were applied.

First time?

If anyone had an answer for your question, a hard answer, the contests would probably be more fun.

Edit: He was even asked if he printed it and said no. At least he didn’t lie?
