Not defending AS, but people complain if ISA pays or if they don't pay. They're no longer in charge, so maybe this decision was made relative to the legal proceedings. Maybe they were told not to pay it. I have no idea. -- ILLINOIS Pageants Board

The point you miss is that ISA agreed to pay Crystal her prizes and awards after they were informed by MAO that they were fired and in the holding pattern during their appeal. Now they are refusing. If MAO had control of the money they'd see that Crystal got paid for her airfare. So ISA revoked their promise. (NT)	No name	15:13:56 08/23/15 Sun
Maybe they reneged on their promises as per business as usual or maybe there is a legal reason they cannot follow through on that. People were complaining that there needed to be a "cease and desist" order to prevent them from draining the account, which included the money in prizes and awards they HAVE given to Crystal and Peyton. That's one reason I'm not sorry the flow of funds to them has stopped. Experience tells us to expect the worse from the AS & GS, but maybe they've been told to stop. I don't know. I'd like an explanation, but there has to be a better counter-argument than "you promised" against people who are notoriously unscrupulous. (NT) -- No name, 15:45:04 08/23/15 Sun Let's just pretend that MAO has halted AS and GS. Why wouldn't MAO step in and make sure that Crystal had whatever she needed to get to Atlantic City, given that her state organization is in limbo? Either way, someone has not upheld their end of the deal. (NT) -- No name, 16:52:21 08/23/15 Sun I agree. I think MAO should be accountable. (NT) -- No name, 17:14:06 08/23/15 Sun
