If they actually removed it, and didn't have anything in the rules about topicality or humor, they suck and should be ridiculed

He got to keep his ribbons, he wasn't disqualified or anything and his other miniatures stayed up.

Some things can be expected not to work as a display in public.

Only people who know would know. I don't see the problem.

Somebody saw a problem and got it removed. Personally, I couldn't care less because the creator really should have seen this coming, at least as well as they saw them coming.

Sorry, I do a lot of typos these days

Too much phone scrolling

I mean, I bet that person has fun testing the fences and finding out exactly where the line is.

For sure, I'm glad he submitted his piece and won a ribbon.
