I do not want to live in a society that rewards rapists with NHL contracts. Acquitted does not mean innocent. The assault that took place that night will haunt EM for the rest of her life, it should follow Dube for the rest of his.
As a Gulf War veteran I was mortified when Harry let his wife march in front all the British veterans while wearing hot pants and flip flops when the team was entering with their flag during the games in Germany. This is just never done and was so disrespectful to the men she was marching with. I am very liberal and open to dissent so I am pretty tolerate of alot of things but for some reason this really hit a nerve. I sent the Invictus Foundation an email explaining this and offered to verify my service if needed. Never heard back from them and Harry's wife never apologized for her abhorrent behavior. All Harry does in whine about his need for taxpayer security. He put others at risk like the soldier body guards that accompanied him when he demanded to go to Afghanistan. Maybe find a veteran that honors the flag and puts others above self to lead Invictus.
I come from a military family. What he has done to The Invictus Games is shocking and disgraceful. The final straw for me was watching Meghan walk in front of the veterans last time with zero respect. He needs to go.
The veterans in the Invictis games should be celebrated and honored. My husband was in the Army, and my father in law and grandfather both were in WWII. These people are brave and served our countries to keep us all safe, and free. Having someone use these heroes for selfish gain is WRONG!!!.
I am the daughter of a USA Army veteran who was captured by the Germans in the Battle of the Bulge in the Ardennes during WWII. He was marched to at least six different stallogs, from Poland to Germany, after his capture. Once, he was told to load food boxes onto trucks being sent from the American Red Cross to feed the prisoners, which were then driven to rhe front line German troops while he, himself, was also starving. A buddy of his was shot dead for trying to hide some food in his pocket while loading the boxes. My father barely survived and seldom discussed his experiences after the war. He got a college degree & a wonderful job after the war, but no help from anyone with his trauma. He went back to school and earned his master's degree, but couldn't continue anymore. He just stopped working in his late forties, and my mother went back to work to support our family. Had he had something like Invictus to help him focus on through his grief and trauma that could have also alleviated his pain, he might have been able to walk me down the aisle at my wedding. He survived until he was 53, when he gave up and died in our home, three months before I got married.<br>
I have been heartbroken for the lack of respect shown to the servicemen participating in the Invictus Games. They are heroes and are not being shown the respect they deserve for their service, due to all the negative turmoil constantly stirred up by the antics of the Sussex couple.<br>

Clock is a unique event in WCA, and we've never seen anything like this before in WCA. Many world class solvers have really active concurrency and they keep beating records really often. Removing this event would ruin this competitive energy about clock. <br>
<br>
For those who aren't liking cubes that much, clock was an official option. It was really popular. And I personally used to only compete at clock at my first competition because that was the only event I was liking a lot and was decent at. <br>
<br>
Please bring it back, I'm sure it wasn't that complicated to manage if WCA kept it for so long.
As someone who is world class at clock, I am directly affected by this decision. It is devastating to see my main event go, and I'm sure a lot of people feel the same way. I don't think that it makes sense to remove clock just because it is not a "spectator-friendly" event, or that it would go against the WCA's strategic plan. The vast majority of competitions are small local competitions with few spectators. Clock is the most beginner-friendly event in the WCA, so wouldn't removing it make the WCA less accessible? I appreciate the WCA for being open to add new events, but not at the cost of removing others. I think that this is a big mistake by the WCA, and I hope that this gets reverted soon.

It pains me to write this letter—not as a businessman, not as a consumer, but as your father.<br>
<br>
When you both were young, I watched you fall in love with sports. Not for the fame, not for the money, but for the joy of the game—the teamwork, the spirit, the stories of perseverance. I thought that’s what drove you to build the Real Sports App. I was proud, at first. Two brothers using their talents to connect people with something they love. But what you’ve built now… it feels like a mockery of the values I hoped to instill in you.<br>
<br>
You’ve taken people’s passion and turned it into a trap. Paywalls, deceptive "upgrades," constant ads, manipulative algorithms—it's no longer about serving the fan. It's about squeezing every dollar out of them. Have you forgotten who your users are? They're not just metrics or wallets. They're kids dreaming of sports glory, parents trying to follow their teams in between shifts, and lifelong fans hoping to feel part of something bigger.<br>
<br>
I raised you to work hard, but never at the expense of your integrity. You’re no longer just building a business—you’re exploiting trust. And worst of all, you seem proud of it.<br>
<br>
I don’t write this to shame you, but to remind you: Success without conscience is failure in disguise.<br>
<br>
It's not too late to change. To fix what you've broken. To build something that respects the people who made your app possible in the first place.<br>
<br>
But you have to choose. Right now, I see two brilliant sons who have lost their way. And as your father, nothing could disappoint me more.<br>
<br>
Dad
