| Subject: Just to clarify two things, 1) Davia didn’t do the CMNH fundraising, crazy number of ad pages, or get sponsors and won. Since you wanted an example. 2) they only score the top 10, they don’t even score the top 15 in the first phase of competition. It’s the top 10 that is decided before the pageant, and then they add the next 5 highest scores to make a 15. But they are not actually scored. This is national as well. |
