Nominations for Possible New Event for the Weekly Competition for 2024

[EthanMCuber]

Here are some events I would possibly add:

Corner Helicopter 2x2
Side events relay (Pyra, Skewb, Sq-1, Clock, Mega, and maybe OH)
3x3 Real Man's ao5
Mastermorphix
Some sort of cuboid (2x2x3, 2x3x3, or 3x3x4)
Gear Cube
Coin Pyraminx (I think I have all of the UWRs for this lol)
2x2 or 4x4 OH

[THE_V01DL0RD]

Seems like everyone has a corner helicopter 2x2
I nominzte PLL & OLL Tome Attack

 

[Meanjuice]

I think that skewb mixup should be added.

 

[GloopyGum]

I propose to add one-pass multi-blind.

Once you finish memorizing one cube, you are not allowed to look at that cube again. You must proceed to memorize the next cube. Hence the name one-pass multi-blind. Reviews of memo are allowed as long as you do not physically look at that cube (i.e, go through the memo in your head). It's ok if you accidentally glance at an already memorized cube, as long as you don't gain any meaningful information from that.

Time limit: 60 minutes.
Scoring is the exact same as regular multi-blind.

Admittedly, this event has had zero exposure in the cubing community and hasn't really been tested so I highly doubt it will be added
And yes I came up with this myself (I think)

I think an important element of a good weekly comp event is simplicity. Even if it isn’t particularly simple to participate in (7BLD), it should be simple to explain (“make all the colors on the correct sides” “do that but you look at it and then put on a blindfold”)

i do agree, its a fun concept but wouldn't get alot of competitors (IMO)
but it is a fun ideaa and i dont mind keeping up on it weekly if people do it
out of about the 9 people that joined the comp, 3 submitted times so it wouldnt be that big
