That is correct. It is cheating, but the judges let a small amount of it slide, especially if you come up with an amusing enough justification. I could not get it to fit otherwise!

I'm not a judge or a competitor, but I feel like a little bit of cheating on the rules is within the spirit of the game. Especially if it a) it makes it more obfuscated and b) it wouldn't have fit otherwise.
