If you could add ANY WCA event

Sorry for bump but I have a really awesome idea for an official event that connects two of the most beloved events already existing.

We would basically do FMC but are only allowed to use our feet (obviously for both turning the cubes and writing down the solution).

I'll make that Idea even better: 7x7 Multi BLD FMC One footed while juggling chainsaws while riding a unicycle on a flaming tightrope.
 
maybe cuboids like 3x3x2 or 3x3x4. 2x2bld because you can learn it in 30 minutes and it's very impressive to non-cubers
 
One problem that I see with adding mirror blocks, is how can you add regulations to ensure the different sides correct height. Obviously most people would use a shengshou, but WCA has to allow any brand/future brand of mirror blocks able to compete, and with each brand they could make dimensions slightly different. How does WCA determine a standard, and how is the rule enforced?

Well, it wouldn't be anymore difficult than enforcing sticker shade standards
 
I know a lot of ppl would disagree but..... full guildford challenge......
But they should have cutoff times based on previous solves done by competitors (allow them to join if their previous times were below cutoff times) for every event so those trollers who can barely solve a 4x4 cant join and will only let slightly more advanced cuber to compete. (e.g; 2x2:8 3x3:20 4x4:1.15.......... pyra:10 sq-1:25.....etc)

They could always find out what piece size ratio Shengshou uses, as SS has it pretty well thought out. If the pieces were any closer in size you wouldn't be able to tell them apart well enough to speedsolve, and if the size difference were any bigger the thin slice would be to thin to be functional.

I would imagine full guildford would just be too much time, even world class people would take around 8 minutes. Mini guildford would be pretty cool though, as that would be much more time-efficient.

You could have them all at the same time after all 5bld takes like 5-10 min so it isnt rlly that long
 
1. Mirror
2. Mirror double mix
3. 3x3 speedscrambling
4. 2x2-5x5 relay
5. Big cubes OH
6. 3x3 no inspection (again)
7. Supersolve (scramble given 1 day earlier)
8. 10 3x3 relay (or less)
9. Mirror BLD no inspection
10. 5 min FMC
