Of course, there is always a numbers goal driving all this pressure and abuse. What would UBF be without numbers goals? For the "overseas guests" the goal is to bring 1,000 people total to this conference at MSU. To pad the numbers and fill the seats, as they did in 2000 at ISU, Korean UBF will be sending 300 (!) people.
