Subject: Re: This is where you are mistaken, under 2.0 rules there is no longer a top 10 discussion following the final preliminary competition. The judges meet to do the composite scoring but do NOT have a top 10 discussion in the Miss competition anymore. This information is from the national office and I am more than happy to provide the resource that says this as well if needed. - Please provide!

[> [> [> [> [> Subject: The auditors present the top 10 and/or top 15 to the judges following the final preliminary competition. The judges then give each contestant within that final group a score from 6 to 10 (no contestant on final night is scored below a 6). After this composite score is given to every single contestant competing on final night the judges are dismissed. The judge's chair in South Carolina is one of the most ethical women with the highest level of integrity that you will ever find. I can assure you that no top 10 discussion happens.

[> [> [> [> [> [> Subject: Re: Not to question your assurance of the chairperson, but if there's no discussions after the judges releases the composite of the Top 10 among the Top 15, then we are still left with more questions than answers. Because candidates after having already been scored for prelims, are now given another opportunity to be low balled or overly compensatedo to get a winner, in spite of their scores. Seems really unfair to those who were well rounded in every phase of competition and received high scoring, to be reevaluated. This is now where how the judges were charged comes in with the 6-10. Based on how MSCO charged the judges, judges can over rule their own scores to give a State what they want by low balling some and over compensating others points! Or the judges were NOT given the correct 15 from the onset and the TOTAL pageant was rigged. So unfair to candidates and people who believed in a crooked system.
