Subject: April, did you refuse to pay someone in SC a couple years ago? YES or NO? Simple answer
In reply to: April Brilliant 410-896-3023 Home Number 's message, "There is NO one I OWE anything to in SC or elsewhere. Everyone knows that you are the same person posting lies on here, so if you are so confidant that you know what you are talking about...then BRING IT! Bring it straight to me, because you are wrong about what you are posting on here. I explained myself these "accusations" in a post above, and I'm not going to do it again. Apparently you are not reading anything...you are just posting the same lies over and over again. Call me...or better yet, give me your number and name, and I'll be glad to set things straight. You are spreading nothing but untruths." on 15:07:36 05/08/06 Mon

HELLO,
I POSTED THIS EARLIER, AND I AM ASSUMING THAT SOME PEOPLE MAY HAVE MISSED IT. AFTER THIS POST, I'LL BE GLAD TO ANSWER ANY LEGITIMATE QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS HERE ON THIS BOARD, BUT THE QUESTION OF PAYMENT WAS ANSWERED EARLIER, AND IT'S ANSWERED HERE FOR THE LAST TIME.

I ALSO CONTACTED THE BO TO LET THEM KNOW THAT I WILL BE HERE TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS, AND AGAIN, MY NUMBER IS 410-896-3023 OR 410-726-1257
IF YOU ARE NOT AFRAID TO TALK TO ME PERSONALLY, I'LL BE MORE THAN HAPPY TO CHAT WITH YOU. I'M REALLY NOT THAT SCARY...LOL!

YOU CAN ALSO EMAIL ME DIRECT AT mysticproductions@comcast.net

THE PREVIOUS POST IS BELOW...
HERE'S THE POST I POSTED EARLIER. IF IT'S A REPEAT TO YOU, I APOLOGIZE...


I'm assuming that since there are some direct questions and posts to me on here, that some of you were expecting me to find this board...and I have...so...

I feel like I've said this before, but apparently it NEEDS REPEATING again! IN REGARDS TO THE RECENTLY POSTED SC STATEMENT...

Several years ago (2001 to be exact), I used to pro-rate, and I used to make winners sign contracts in which it stated you must return to crown your successor in order to receive your cash winnings. There were a couple of girls who violated this contract, and yes they were not paid. However, they knew this when signing the contract. If they or their parents are complaining about it now still 5 years later...then maybe they should be fulfilled the contract obligations.
These are the ONLY people that were not paid period. So, it would be in everyone's best interest, if the information was true and correct before being posted here.
As for my OLDER queens that someone was referring to, they were EACH paid their winnings from America's Brilliant Miss $500 CASH each in an installment plan (due to the fact that I did NOT pro-rate AND we had only 20 contestants in that pageant) when it was last held.
Everyone that was entitled payment ever, has been paid.

If you personally know someone that should have been paid that wasn't, by all means call me at 410-726-1257, because if someone was forgotten accidently...I would obviously want to make sure they received what they were entitled to. I, however, do not know of anyone, and I imagine that you don't either.

I don't take kindly to bashing of anyone. Everyone is entitled to their opinion on whether prizes are nice or not...or whether you think I'm organized or not (however I Mr. Tim commented last year on how organized things were, so I take that as a compliment)
To make accusations or on payment hearsay and such is uncalled for, and I will not sit back and take it. If your complaint or concern is valid, then it should be taken up with me personally, and if you are too afraid to approach me directly, then your complaint most likely does not hold much truth or substance to it. If you are going to call me out on a board, then should be able to call me on the phone. Having said that, let's move on...

I stopped pro-rating a LONG time ago, and I stopped making winners sign contracts years ago. I began awarding all cash at the pageant.

Last year, was the first Pageant Kingdom International, and all money was paid in full at the pageant. Winnings were NOT pro-rated. If anyone says otherwise, it is simply NOT the truth, so consider the source.

According to some, the gifts (that all contestants received) last year were not up to the standard to which many of you are accustomed. If you were unhappy with your gift, I sincerely apologize, however, that was our first BIG glitz pageant, and I did not know what everyone was used to receiving.
Therefore, we decided to have a prize table this year...which is brand new and EACH contestant will visit the prize table each time they exit the stage.

We have over 100 Disney Princess Dolls alone, really cute Disney stuffed animals, Disney castle nightlights, jewelry sets, Disney Fairy playsets, fairy wings, and much more. The gifts are very nice and are certainly should not be considered cheap by anyones standards.

If you would like, I would be more than happy to email your photos of what we have purchased so far. My email is mysticproductions@comcast.net
I have already emailed the photo to one parent, and tonight I sent emails out to past contestants. If you are a past contestant and have changed your email, please let me know, and I'll be sure you receive the photos.

Thank you for your time, and I do hope you will join us at Pageant Kingdom International this year. We are still doing guestbook drawings, so feel free to stop by at www.mysticproductions.com

Enjoy your Mother's Day next weekend, and I hope to see you in Bristol.

God Bless!
April Brilliant
