Clock has more competitors than 6 other current events, so you need to get rid of those 6 first before you get rid of clock:
6x6, 7x7, FMC, 4BLD, 5BLD, MBLD


Courtesy of Erno buying the patent from it's inventors, yeah, but he had nothing to do with it's invention.
6x6 and 7x7 are more enjoyable than clock.

Event size isn’t the only determining factor in removing an event :p
 
I say we remove clock and 7x7. Clock isn't even a permutation group puzzle: it is simply not a twisty puzzle like as the others. Maybe some may find it fun, but I really don't see how it fits in. Besides, it's a difficult event to organize. 7x7 is simply uninspired. It is a larger 6x6 which adds nothing new. 6x6 to 5x5 adds much more depth in center building and edge pairing, but 7x7 really doesn't have much going for it besides the fact that it has no parities during 3x3 stage.

FMC, 4BLD, 5BLD, MBLD are all very unique and impressive events that should certainly be kept imo.
 
Fine but its not very spectator friendly and fmc still sux
In my experience multiBLD is actually pretty spectator-friendly. It is true that the memorization phase gets ignored by spectators, but when good people get to the solving phase, large crowds gather to watch the solves.
 
multibld and FMC. They dont provide any benefits to the cubing community from what i can see. clonk is fun tho
4 and 5 BLD show solving different cubes in a Blind manner, Multi shows how much a human is able to memorize and retrieve.

FMC is when you see an example solve and think that nobody would see that in a speedsolve, but better.
 
I feel like the events balance each other. If you add more puzzles, it would overbalance, and taking events away would also make the events unbalanced. Maybe avoiding adding puzzles and instead adding things like relays and team blind would make the events balanced.

So right!!!
