I was going to go to AGG/NC but the prices are crazy.I guess our next one will be in Sept. (NT)	Anonymous	21:35:04 08/11/07 Sat
That new package deal she has going isnt so bad (NT) -- Anonymous, 05:52:41 08/12/07 Sun I don't think its high for a state, but she isnt giving the money that justifies the entry fees.And the fees off of Nationals is so small. Thats what I would go for. (NT) -- Anonymous, 09:42:11 08/12/07 Sun I agree. Her supreme package at the earlybird is more than the most that you can win if you get GS and there are only two GS's instead of 3, which is what you see more of now. She is new and has no clue that she has outpriced herself. If she is charging that much and only have two GS, they should each be getting a $1000 bond, Mini's should get $500 or $750 bond, etc. etc. There are only two of each. She is being greedy or stupid or both. (NT) -- Anonymous, 10:48:40 08/12/07 Sun I dont think it is being greedy or stupid, but she should look at what NC charged and do tht. Why pay more for NC when SC was so much cheaper? (NT) -- Anonymous, 11:34:15 08/12/07 Sun SC STATE WAS CHEAPER AND GAVE LOTS OF CASH. (NT) -- Anonymous, 12:02:41 08/12/07 Sun I agree... She should just charge as much as SC did,and give the same amounts of cash. What makes her so special? (NT) -- Anonymous, 12:35:04 08/12/07 Sun Look at the SC app.. http://americasgorgeousgirls.com/scstateinfoentry.htm It was much cheaper and gave better money! What's up with that? (NT) -- Anonymous, 12:37:20 08/12/07 Sun Hmmmm (NT) -- Anonymous, 13:35:52 08/12/07 Sun Re: Hmmmm -- Anonymous, 14:06:29 08/20/07 Mon
well depends on where she is giving it. I know some places charge a pretty penny for rental, the other gifts cost to cause some of us wont grand and it sucks for our kids to walk away empty handed when we pay so damn much to be in it, there are lots of different reason the cost are what they are compared to sc.. If you dont like the prices dont go! Sarah and wil be there (NT)	Anonymous	15:25:09 08/12/07 Sun
You have absolutely no idea what you are talking about, but from the sound of it, you should go. You can pay $450 and since no one else is willing to pay that ridiculous price for a first time director's pageant who is giving no money and will probably give crap prizes, you should win the Grand! Woo hoo for you. (NT) -- Anonymous, 16:26:00 08/12/07 Sun well then what pageant system is it that you run where we can get in free cause hell we will all go to take your penny machine prizes home (NT) -- Anonymous, 16:46:20 08/12/07 Sun I know some locations are higher,but that doesn't make up thefact cash prizes are smaller,prorating titles(if under 25) and the entry fees are way higher. No thanks! (NT) -- Anonymous, 17:54:25 08/12/07 Sun Don't forget the high admission too! (NT) -- Anonymous, 18:16:51 08/12/07 Sun Acutally if you take the just the supreme package August rate of $200 you do win more than your entry fee back if you win grand. Oh and I looked at all of the state paperwork and that is the same as Virginia and some other states but she is giving more titles. I swear you people will bitch about anything. We are taking the $450 deal to enter everything so my dd has a chance at winning more titles. (NT) -- Anonymous, 05:54:13 08/13/07 Mon AMEN! I think someone is just out to trash this pageant. I see you people pay $150 at prelims not to win a dang dime... YOu don't complain about that do ya??? (NT) -- Anonymous, 06:16:13 08/13/07 Mon The hotel where SC AGG was held is very expensive so that cant be the reason, fees are so high, The Plaza is $1,500.00 a day (NT) -- Anonymous, 07:26:03 08/13/07 Mon I wouldn't mind going if she wouldn't take away half of the supreme titles if she gets less than 25.With it being her 1st state ,she may get less than that. I am not going to pay that much and risk less than 25 being there. (NT) -- Anonymous, 08:44:47 08/13/07 Mon She is only giving away some of the titles if she gets less than 25? Are you sure? I didnt read that on the app. (NT) -- Anonymous, 09:08:45 08/13/07 Mon I didn't read that either. Where did you see that she would take away titles? (NT) -- Anonymous, 10:08:37 08/13/07 Mon c/i Copied from the app.. read the last sentence in each paragraph, -- Anonymous, 10:25:12 08/13/07 Mon It is in the paperwork that only one of some of the supremes will be awarded if there are less than 25. You know you don't want to see this pageant happen or see good numbers because you keep bashing. Keep it up and the few that go will get the guaranteed cash. If your dd cant supreme with 10 there then she cant with 30 so what you worried about (NT) -- Anonymous, 10:25:45 08/13/07 Mon Seems like some of you will not be happy regardless. There is no prorating the money. Can't blame the director for not wanting to go under. (NT) -- Anonymous, 10:29:50 08/13/07 Mon PLAIN AND SIMPLE, GINA R. SEES $$$$ SIGNS AND IS JACKING THE PRICES TO FATTEN HER POCKETS. IT WILL BE SO FULL OF COI BASED ON HER DD AT FUTURE EVENTS IT WILL BE SAD. GO IF YOU LIKE TO THROW AWAY MONEY. (NT) -- Anonymous, 14:58:06 08/13/07 Mon NOT THE MONEY,JUST THE TITLES (NT) -- Anonymous, 07:25:47 08/14/07 Tue Sheila had the SAME RULE! Did you bash her for it??? Last year at state only 1 GG face supreme and 1 novice was crowned! (NT) -- Anonymous, 12:41:20 08/19/07 Sun YES BUT IT DIDN'T COST AN ARM AND LEG FOR THE STATE. (NT) -- Anonymous, 03:44:14 08/22/07 Wed
If you don't want to go to this pageant DON'T. No one is forcing you to but there is no need to come on here and bash it. Good luck Gina we will be there. (NT)	Anonymous	12:46:25 08/14/07 Tue
I dont think anyone just wantes to bash this pageant. I was excited to participate in this pageant,then I got the paperwork. I just dont understand why its so much higher than SC. The ballroom is way more expensive for SC. I was just very disappointed. (NT) -- Anonymous, 15:53:14 08/14/07 Tue GINA- QUIT WRITING TO YOURSELF, IT LOOKS PATHETIC! I HAVE TALKED TO YOUR "FRIENDS" AND WORD IS OUT ABOUT THE FEES HONEY, NEXT TIME TRY TO NOT BE SO GREEDY! (NT) -- Anonymous, 20:17:19 08/14/07 Tue JMO if you cant afford $200 for a state then you should stick to prelims. Signed NOT GINA (NT) -- Anonymous, 20:48:06 08/14/07 Tue Its not $200 dumbass (NT) -- Anonymous, 21:23:57 08/14/07 Tue $200 supreme package straight from the banner. (NT) -- Anonymous, 07:27:45 08/15/07 Wed I HAVE THE PAPERWORK IN HAND,IT SAYS 275 (NT) -- Anonymous, 07:47:15 08/15/07 Wed I believe b/c of all the btching, she lowered the price to $200 (NT) -- Anonymous, 13:10:47 08/15/07 Wed*
If you people think you are gonna get rich competeing in pageants you all are really crazy. You always lose more than you win no matter what pageant it is. (NT)	Anonymous	07:36:10 08/15/07 Wed
I dont think its us thinking we will get rich ogg pageants, ITS GINA! (NT) -- Anonymous, 08:14:59 08/15/07 Wed She's not trying to get rich,just trying to not lose her @$$.Funny,you want to do pageants,you want your dd to win big money without you having to pay alot,and then you expect the director to not make any money.You do know it's a buisness right? (NT) -- Anonymous, 10:23:14 08/16/07 Thu Yes Gina We know it is a business, however, why is it ALL of the boards are saying the same things? Why was SC so much less for a great pageant? Quit being so greedy! LOOK AT THE PAYOUT FOR WINNERS!! Where is all our money going? I say get a cheaper venue and give out more in prize money! (NT) -- Anonymous, 13:47:50 08/16/07 Thu Gina, no one is out to make you make less money. Take it from us, if you give more cash paying titles,we all will be glad to attend your pageant.You will profit more from that becaue your numbers will double! I promise! (NT) -- Anonymous, 22:26:33 08/16/07 Thu I'm not Gina.Just sick of seeing whiners that want more,more ,more.From the looks of this board you won't be happy no matter what she does.Where does it say she has do NC exactly like SC?Do all of the others follow SC?No. (NT) -- Anonymous, 08:01:04 08/17/07 Fri I just want my daughter to have the same chances to win the same amounts of money the SC girls have.Why is that so much to ask for? (NT) -- Anonymous, 08:45:59 08/17/07 Fri ITA (NT) -- Anonymous, 11:04:53 08/17/07 Fri Then you should have taken her to SC.There are no rules that say NC or any other AGG state have to give or even offer the exact same thing.It should go by what kind of turn out so the director doesn't lose.And in the past few years NC has been extremely small.JMO.I wouldn't want to lose all that either.And the more you pay out,the less you charge,and the lower # of girls ='s big loss. (NT) -- Anonymous, 11:30:28 08/17/07 Fri She's charging MORE though! (NT) -- Anonymous, 11:45:37 08/17/07 Fri Charge the same amount,but give the NC girls the same cash as the SC girls. PP is right,she will make more money becayse more girls will come. Gina, you still have a chance to redeem this pageant and make good money,just do the right thing. If you keep it the same, you will lose$$$$$$$$$$$ (NT) -- Anonymous, 11:59:06 08/17/07 Fri
