lol....how do the judges in beauty pageants pick winners? Do they know them? Is it not by a certain criteria?

-Looks
-Intelligence
- Ability to answer questions

For an online forum, you add things like

-How does said person relate with other NLers?
- What is your participation level? Are you a regular or you just pass by?

If I got to organize this thing, there would be little or no loopholes to question.

The organization of a pageant in the real world is no different from debates. The NL Debate judges don't see the contestants in person as well. What makes you think some wouldn't have won if they got to stand in the presence of the judges?

Just like the pageants, the Debate teams don't get to speak to the judges unlike in the real world. In reality, some of those who lost debates would have gained an edge based on oratory.

I maintain that the process used in NL Debates is fairer....NLers will get the same powers people get in pageants. Remember, it's viewers votes that get contestants in the Top 15 of a pageant after which the panel of judges take over.

NLers votes will get contestants in the Top 5 after which the judges will take over. All you'll have to do is 'LIKE' the picture of who you think deserves a top 5 spot and when the likes are tallied, those with the most likes will go through.

Is that not an easier process than this one where you call an NLJega who may or may not be tallying the right numbers? Who is just a human being PRONE to errors?

Seun, Dygeasy, Ishilove or whoever organizes these things. Is the idea of NLers LIKING pictures to determine a Top 5 after which a panel of 5 judges from 5 different Sections chooses a winner not more feasible, legitimate and LESS STRESSFUL than the ancient method currently on ground?

So if people are to like the candidate they choose how do you get to fish out alternate monikers? Will it not still be by popularity some monikers will get to the finals?

Which method is easier to use in conducting a free and fair pageantry?

Ask yourself that question madam.

It seems that the organizers have gotten a new sponsor. Good for them. I wonder why the contest is called "Miss Nairaland" though.

No we don't have a new sponsor.
The company that was mentioned offered to give their products as consolatory prizes to the contestants and also some money. We didn't go out seeking for new sponsors, they offered unconditionally. JAYBEE3 also offered the winner a fully paid for spa treatment. There are other numerous gifts and prizes the contestants have gotten which didn't go through the organizers. Maybe I shouldn't have acknowledged them but I did for transparency purpose.
None of these diminish your role as the principal sponsor.
It is a Nairaland event, it bears the name Nairaland and will forever be called "Miss Nairaland".
