The pioneers didn’t cross the plains barefoot for this game to be at 10am
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.
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.
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.
Please bring it back, I'm sure it wasn't that complicated to manage if WCA kept it for so long.

I am a competitive show skater and understand how judging works. What happened was wrong and deserves to be acknowledged it is. You have failed us athletes who watch team after team dreams shattered by your unfair rules. Please do something about this before you lose more people's faith
While I have never skated in my life, I have been doing marching band for almost eight years, and you learn to watch for the smallest of discrepancies in everything you do, from musical quality to your choreography. When watching the scoring and the errors made by the French pair, it was shocking to see that they got a better score than Chock and Bates. There were moments where they were out of sync and there were moments where one of them visibly stumbled and lost balance. It's clear that a heavy bias from the judges affected that final score, and I think it's important for the integrity of the Olympics that this be reviewed heavily. This isn't the first time it's happened and it's sad to see that this is a repeating problem.
As a parent of 2 skaters that dedicate their lives to this sport, the actions of the IOC are a slap in the face to the integrity that is hammered into these skaters every time they take the ice. Chock and Bates were meticulous. We all saw the stumbles from Cizeron and they didn’t get called??
As a proud Haitian, I can accept defeat when the better team wins. What I cannot accept is when the outcome of a World Cup match is overshadowed by controversial officiating.
Our players fought with heart, discipline, and pride. They deserved a fair opportunity to compete. When clear decisions appear to go against one team, it doesn’t just affect the score, it affects the integrity of the game and the dreams of an entire nation.
Haiti has overcome challenges far greater than football, and we will continue to stand behind our Grenadiers. We are not asking for favors. We are asking for fairness, accountability, and respect for the beautiful game.
The world watched what happened. We hope FIFA reviews the match with transparency so that every nation, regardless of its size, is treated equally.
🇭🇹 One nation. One people. One flag. Nou pap janm sispann kwè.
