Battle for BFB

Battle for BFB (BFB, lit. Battle for Battle for Battle for Dream Island), formerly known as Battle for BFDI, is the fourth season of the animated web series Battle for Dream Island, an animated web-series about a competition between inanimate, anthropomorphic objects. BFB was created by twin brothers Cary and Michael Huang, and was published to the Jacknjellify channel on Streame. The first episode released on the 3rd of November, 2017, and finally concluded on the 9th of April, 2021, lasting 1,253 days (3 years, 5 months, 6 days).
==Format==
Unlike the previous season, Battle for BFDI goes back to the traditional format of challenges and eliminations, similar to the first and second seasons. From episode 17, the elimination process swapped, and votes no longer became who to eliminate, but who the viewers want to be saved, with the least-voted contestant being eliminated. Elimination ceremonies typically took place prior to a challenge.
The eliminated contestant center swapped several times during the series. Between episodes 1 and 17, eliminated contestants were sucked into the body of Four, one of the two original co-hosts, and treated with an eternal algebra class taught by the latter. Between episodes 18 and 26, contestants were informed that the algebra class, aptly named the "EXIT", was full and could no longer seat any more students. As an alternative, contestants were sent to the Big Rotating Building (BRB), where they would be placed in cages that spun around the tower at quick speeds.
Contests were held in nearly every episode. There have been a variety of contets. Contests have ranged from simple tasks such as retrieving emeralds for Four or walking up stairs to press a red button, mental challenges such as figuring out an impostor among the contestants' teammates, or competitive challenges such as a plain game of basketball. Episode 28 featured a mashup of every contest.
===Host===
The position of host has swapped several hands several times. X is the longest-serving host, featuring in the title for all 30 episodes, albeit disappearing between episodes 6 and 9. Four, the main host, would also count, had he not "died" on episode 6, before being returned in episode 10.
Purple Face, a purple-coloured crude drawing of a smiley face, began making appearances from episode 23, and was the host for a total of 7 episodes. The Announcer, a grey speaker box who also hosted the first season, appeared around the closing episodes, and served as host for the final three episodes.
Between episodes 6 and 9, during X and Four's absence, Donut, who reportedly represents the number zero due to being a circular 0-shaped object, served as a replacement host until X was later found to be hiding; due to trauma from Four and Donut's timesing; and Four was later revived; the latter having been inside Donut's "bloodstream".
=== Teams ===
There have been a total of eleven teams in Battle for BFB. Originally, there were eight, which were as follows:
* Death P.A.C.T. (an acronym for Death Prevention and Creating Trust) - Named for the team's primary motivation, to prevent death and create a sense of trust and friendship among contestants.
* Beep - Named accidentally by Roboty, who only spoke in morse code.
* Iance - Originally formed to compose some but not all members of Freesmart (also known as the Alliance). The name "Iance" was chosen, as not all members were a member of the Alliance. As a compromise, team member Fanny proposed removing the "all" from the word alliance to get the team name.
* A Better Name Than That - Named after Golf Ball, the team's leader, accidentally said that the team must have "a better name than that" (the name in question being Death P.A.C.T.'s name).
* Free Food - Named after Yellow Face screamed "FREE FOOD!" in response to Eraser questioning where the "free food" - contained inside the contestant Fries - was located.
* Team Ice Cube - Named after Ice Cube (who was not actually on the team), of which contestant Bracelety had an obsession over.
* The Losers - Named after Loser, whom the members of the team had an obsession over. This team's name is similar to that of Team Ice Cube, the main difference being the person mentioned in question (Loser) is on the team, whereas Ice Cube is absent from Team Ice Cube.
* Bleh - Bleh is not actually the team's name. The team's actual name, a mashup of the eight names of the team's members, is impossible to pronounce properly, and is impossible to write properly without editing the text. As a compromise, fans used the term "bleh" as a placeholder when the team's name had to be written.
Following a split in the show, the remaining fourteen (later fifteen) characters were divided into two teams, based off what colour of the two hosts X and Four the contestants were closer to (X is yellow and Four is blue). The teams were later named on who won and lost a challenge where the teams had to knock over the opposing team's towers (implied to be the teams' homes). The two teams were as follows:
* Have Cots (originally the Four-Coloured Team)
* Have Nots (originally the X-Coloured Team)
In the closing episodes of the season, the two teams were merged. A name was later coined for this team; the Newbie Alliance, composing all remaining contestants at the time.
==Characters==
This section is incomplete.
Prior to the series' split, sixty-four characters all competed in the show, hoping to win the original prize, a "BFDI", a magical box that contains an archive of the first two seasons. Following an encounter with the host of the next season, Two, fourty people opted to quit BFB and move on to the fifth season, The Power of Two.
After the series' split, fourteen (later fifteen with the addition of Profily, who was immediately eliminated on the same episode) contestants began battling, not just for the BFDI, but the BFB (an archive of the whole show), and the "Grand Cake", a sloppy mess advertised as a cake composing all the prizes for safe contestants during elimination, and one that references the prize of the same name used at the end of the first season.
Pencil was eliminated first, with 4,595 votes in total. Prior to the final episode, Teardrop was the final eliminated character. Flower came first, however gave up the BFB to Gelatin after feeling guilt not for sharing. Gelatin himself came second.
