If you could add a WCA event what would it be?

I'm just curious to see why people would want.

I would say 2x2 blindfolded.

 

[Rcuber123]

Evan Liu?

But srsly 2bld FTW!

Mirror blocks bld would also be cool

 

[Hazel]

3x3x5! Plus then, companies would create speed-3x3x5s and we would have better ones than the Cube4You

 

[Mastermind2368]

Floppy cube OH

 

[tx789]

We have enough events. There is no mass demand for other events to be added. Skewb was talked about for years as far back as 2010. Not sure about how 6x6 and 7x7 were added but those were added much more quickly in compassion.

 

[CornerCutter]

I would like the Mirror Cube to be added as an event.

 

[FireCuber]

I would like to add 2x2 OH. It would be a fun event!

 

[WACWCA]

I'm still for kilominx, but for people saying 2x2 Bld, the times would be pretty similar because top 2x2ers can do almost every solve Bld anyway

 

[YouCubing]

not 2x2 BLD

I'd be up for seeing another FMC event, such as Clock FMC and Square-1 FMC
((april fools))

I'd like Fisher Cube, Mirror Blocks, any 3x3xN cuboid, or 2x2 and 4x4 OH

I'm pretty sure there was another thread like this one a while ago, and I definitely agree with what they discussed: anything 2x2 shouldn't be added because as WACWCA said, the rankings will probably be pretty similar and also the records will be only dependant on luck.
I don't necessarily think anything should be added, but I might go for mirror blocks or something.

 

[Tycubing]

I think 4x4 with feet, kilominx, and gigaminx should be added.

 

[AidanNoogie]

I think 4x4 with feet, kilominx, and gigaminx should be added.

Kilominx and gigaminx would be good events. 5x5 FMC would be good too.

Having a poll justified a different thread to me at the time.

Yeah, I guess it wouldn't be a good event, kilominx and gigaminx would be cool.

 

[Cale S]

My main problem with 2x2 BLD is that solve times can be faster than the time it takes for the judge to put the paper in front of you, which means you could cheat

Yeah

But BLD includes inspection time

There would be a rule where you could not start the solve until they put the paper in front, idk though

hmm... i did not think of that...facepalm

 

[WACWCA]

I was referring to the solve time, because it won't slow you down, it's just how fast you can inspect, which doesn't seem very fun
