They should do a Monkey League for other events also, (cough cough "OH")

The only problem with that is the amount of planning and organisation required for running multiple events

OH would be a little boring. I think viable ones would be BLD (But this would probably lower the competitor options the most), 4x4, Square-1, OH, Megaminx, possibly 2x2, and maybe Pyra or Skewb but that would be stretching.
In order of what I think:

IMO megaminx would take too long for it to be entertaining in monkey league

 

[EvanCuber]

Four by four would be really cool, but it also might be a little stretched

Yeah I think square 1 would be interesting as it's only a little longer than 3x3

I don't think there is a large enough community in square 1 to add it to the monkey league.

It also wouldn't grab the attention of non-cubers as well.

That would be a lot of fun! It feels like a lot of people have gotten really good at megaminx recently.

Four by four would be really cool, but it also might be a little stretched

If people are averaging 25-ish, it wouldn’t be terrible. It would be longer than 3x3, obviously, but I don’t think that it would be too bad.

Square-1 would be a lot of fun to see, too!

I don't think there is a large enough community in square 1 to add it to the monkey league.

I disagree. There are plenty of people who would want to. The competition may not be as fierce as it is for 3x3, but it would definitely be a lot of fun to watch, in my opinion.

I don’t see anything wrong with it. What do you see?

Yes

I remembered the rule wrong.
it says that the competitor uses their fingers to touch the elevated sensor surfaces of the timer and I somehow thought it's fingertips.

Tymon got a 3.43 fullstep in his match against Luke! Here is the clip: https://clips.twitch.tv/TangentialSilkyEggUncleNox-QmQvD7UBm82KxCbW. Absolutely insane.

This post deserves more credit; I also think it’s a legitimate contender for the 2021 Funniest Post Award!

You make me blush.
