Octagon, Hexagon, Pentagon, Clock is Gone.

Clock being removed is a bad choice from the WCA, and it's going to be impactful for different communities, like how you said in the video. Clock has been more developed than ever, and removing Clock is just a horrible idea, since a lot more has been achieved over the span of time. The reasons the WCA gave for removing Clock are not really justifiable (other than spectator friendliness, which I can sort of agree with), and it's really unfortunate how the entire Clock community is in shambles because of how the WCA interpreted the situation of Clock.

Now that FTO is going to be an event, hopefully it can bring a new light of the uniqueness that the puzzles have. Although FTO is becoming more developed, I still believe it has the potential to become an event where many people want to become the best at it, similar to 3x3. I'm excited to see how FTO plays out as being official in the WCA.
