Never being one to take myself at face value, I checked this, and,
you know, it's *darn hard* to find a monster with a polygon big
enough to verify this.  My conclusion is: maybe, maybe not.  
Remember, they tweak the design each week.  There's no doubt the
rendering is crude - no sub-pixel stuff here.  That makes sense,
it significantly increases the monster count.
