IMS Merlin Award Competitions

Bulgaria 2014

IMS Merlin Awards

Croatia 2014

ATTENTION: This is a Medal of Merlin, also known as the Medal of Excellence.  It is NOT a Merlin Award.

 

Tom Stone claims he received the Merlin Award.  He is a liar.  He never received the Merlin Award.

Tom Stone claims he received the Merlin Award for "Best Cabaret Act of the Decade", which is not true.  Please see the photo below, where he received the Medal of Merlin for "Best Cabaret Magic Croatia."  And that is not an international award either.  It was only for Croatia.

 

This incident took place in Croatia 2014.  The organizer of this event was Sasa Gerber.  He was the only person who received the Merlin Award at this event.  On the stage, as you will see from the photos, was Sasa Gerber, Dani DaOrtiz, Tom Stone, Volare, Luka Vidovik, Zeka & Piksy, and Mago Sasha.  Everyone saw Tom Stone receiving the Medal of Merlin.  So for him to come out with a big lie, where there were so many people on the same stage who witnessed the event, this clearly indicates Tom Stone has no scruples or dignity.
