Im not sure what ur talking about it here..If your saying that I was paying Bhangra Allstars with Blizzard well that wouldnt be possible. Not unless I sold out the venue and the afterparty maxed out.Vick said:He's using one competition to pay for another... If it wasn't for my buddy Bernie publicizing ponzi schemes, this ponzi scheme could actually work... At least make the after party on your luxury yacht... Share the wealth...
damn haha remind me not to become a comp organizer....hard shit. good luck broDesi Dhamaka said:Look I have no problem with what has been said so far...Believe me I know its called for and I know I dropped the ball. Not purposely but regardless. But everyone here has only assumed never accused me. And thats why I take offense with what Sonali said. Again I can understand if teams are mad or upset. I understand that 100%. And I will do what it takes to make it up to them. And I will continue my Competitions once I have taken care of those teams. And if you want answers, thats fine. Just ask me. And I will answer them. Im not trying to offend anyone with these statements only trying to fix the mess thats been created.

Last one came 7 months ago..

Personally, $210 of my money went into a black hole and has not been repaid by Anil Prasad almost one year later. I judge competitions out of my love for the dance and to help guide today's teams. The least an organizer can do is reimburse costs as agreed upon beforehand.
I'm not sure why anyone would look forward to a competition affiliated with him. As for people who "have not asked him personally" -- it's getting more and more difficult when he doesn't answer texts, calls, or e-mails.
AnkurK said:Im not looking forward to any competitions, my post was regarding Bhangra All-stars.
My asking "any updates?" was to see where we stood in terms of teams and judges receiving the payments they are owed.
We are on the same page Saleem.
I dont know what will happen, but I can tell you one thing..
Anil is chillin ;D

Desi Dhamaka said:Hey Guys,
All teams that were confirmed for Blizzard will receive their money back. To make it up to all the teams this is what we will be doing:
1. All teams confirmed for the Blizzard originally will receive refund checks. Just please let me start getting some money from my job.
2. Also all Bhangra Allstars prize money will be distributed shortly. It may not be all at once.
3. Judges will also be paid.
4. All teams that will be confirmed for next years Blizzard will not have to pay a registration fee.
5. In addition we are trying (please give us time on this) to reimburse teams as much as possible for their hotel bookings for next year. Limiting the amount you put out of pocket is our goal, which includes travel, hotel, food. Now this is something we are working on and as we go forward I will definitely keep all of you in the loop.
Anil
