"WLME 8 continues the spirit of celebrating mathematics as an important part
of life itself, inviting teachers and students in grades K-16 from around
the globe to participate. This event features mathematical investigations
and problems related to the entertainment industry."

.... FROM AROUND THE GLOBE? Are they really serious about that? This is an
event for any metric country and any school in such country to steer well
clear of.
Some of the early events were even better than the latest. I saw less soft
metric in early versions and also less disregard for standards on writing
numbers.
