You're not brutal. You're honest and, IMHO, perfectly realistic. I didn't even 
talk about requirements, and I'm not an expert, but this certainly doesn't 
seem to be easily scalable, printable, etc on arbitrary media. That's another 
point (one which was to be the main reason to have the contest) which is what 
you are making here (correct me if I'm wrong).

A simple stylished "F" with two little horns on top of it and probably most of 
us would have loved it.
