Favorite Events

3x3 BLD: Helps your memory so much.
3x3: I'm decent at it.
4x4: It is easy to become "good" (sub 1:20) at.
3x3 OH: Makes your hand strong, and improves coordination.
5x5: I've never really got into it, but still a neat puzzle.
2x2: Nothing to it.

I'm hoping to add several more events soon, like pryaminx, megaminx, magic, 4x4 BLD, etc. when I get decent at them.
 
It's always diffrent form competition to competition. I try to improve in the events that I suck at, but for Danish Open it's:

1. Multi BLD. I have to get back my NR. But I haven't had the energy to practise.
2. 3x3 I know I'm faster then what I've shown in comp.
3. 3x3 BLD. Didn't really care until like yesterday when I broke my record using M2.
4. 3x3 OH I wanna get top 100.
5. 4x4 I wanna get top 100.
6. Fewest Moves. It's soooooooooo much fun.
7. The rest, I only practise the above events, i don't even own any other puzzles, except 2x2 and 5x5.
 
I love the rush of adrenaline you experience after getting a sub 10 single or nailing a really awesome average. There's nothing like it in the cubing world for me.

I agree with you, even though I've only gotten four non-lucky sub-10 solves. :-)

My favourites must be:

1) 3x3
2) 3x3OH
3) 4x4

Note that 2x2 has been up there, whne I had the WR and practiced it. Nowadays I find the 2x2 boring and haven't barely touched it since WC07.
 
ummmmm.......
(i havent competed in all of these events in comp, but here we go)
megaminx (definately, and once i tune my megaminx i should be able to have the american record not too hard, im almost there with my chinese)
3x3 BLD
5x5
4x4
3x3
4x4 BLD(so close to non-DNF!!!)
3x3 OH (i suck)
 
After actually starting to practice again, I think I'll have to change my votes to:

1. 4x4x4 -> 3x3x3
2. Master Magic -> 5x5x5
3. Pyraminx
4. 2x2x2 -> 4x4x4
5. 3x3x3 -> 3x3x3 OH
6. 5x5x5 -> Master Magic
...And the rest don't matter.
 
Like Exo, I change my order slightly too.

1. Multi bld Still not that good, (yet ;)) but it is still fun. Need to finish LPI.
2. 3x3 bld I am now getting quite good and am often sub 2!
3. 4x4 bld I only tried it once, (DNF) but it was fun and a challenge. :)
4. 2x2 Actually pretty fun, once I started practicing again. :D
5. 3x3 oh or 4x4 Couldn't decide.. Both ok, don't really practice them.
6. 3x3 I practice, but I'm not improving much, boring.
 
for self amusement:
3x3 fmc
3x3 oh
4x4
3x3 speed
3x3 bld

at competition:

I've never been to a competition before but this would be my top five:

1. Square 1 there's just something about Square 1 that makes it really addicting
2. 3x3 speed
3. 2x2 speed
4. 4x4 speed
5. magic its the only event that I can come close to call myself "good"
