True, but it appears to be related to contestants competing in other systems. That's what it is meant to prevent. MAO has been very clear that in order for contestants to go on and compete for the upcoming season, they will have to relinquish their title. That is what they have instructed the contestants to do. But I agree with the poster above, if you need clarification call the national office. (NT)	No name	21:29:52 01/17/17 Tue
My opinion.. Titleholders pay for their wardrobe and travel expenses locally during the local reign. Then when they go to state, some are fortunate to have a wardrobe allowance but not near enough to cover what is required during the week. By the time you add up all expenses for what a 500 to 1,000 scholarship? Most state gowns cost this! So don't let them compete in another MAO pageant (not to mention, in a state with lots of closed pageants) after they have spend thousands of dollars to compete not to mention raised the required CMN money each time. Seem like someone is not happy that they cannot win and need an excuse to keep others out. smh!. (NT) -- No name, 23:13:16 01/17/17 Tue
