BOTB 6

The information in the article below contains spoilers for the BOTB (Battle of the Blocks) series. Please watch the episode(s) in question if you haven't seen them already.

BOTB 6 is the 6th episode of BOTB Season 1. In the later parts of the episode, a BOTB intro was being made, being a reference to FusionAnimations.

## Summary

On 6A, the challenge was announced. Blocky said that you can pick between 2 things: The platform contest, where the first person to remix who is doing the platform contest gets an extra 60 points, and staying on the platform for 1 backdrop frame gives you a points. The other thing to choose is basically an invention where someone will judge. In the episode, it showed the text backwards, and the text said, "Or invent something that the judges will... well... judge", Only 2 people chose the invention challenge, who were TNT and Wood. The rest of the people chose the platform contest. Lava didn't do the challenge, even though he was asking if 6B was coming.

TNT's entry was his new voting icon, which showed him holding a pizza, and other stuff, including meteors destroying a city, which is basically an "end of the world" scene. Wood's entry was showing "Option 2", where the word Option was blue, and the number 2 looked like Two from BFB.

On 6B, the points were given out for the contestants. The table below shows the scoreboard for the contestants. (Including people who did the invention challenge

Before the challenge started, as shown in 6B, it said "You're all standing one a platform MATCHing your own color", referencing Match in BFB. The assets, and limbs changed. The text also had a grammatical error. The reason why TNT's score was supposed to be 173 is that 149 + 24 = 173. Blocky did a mathematical error, which made TNT earn only 14 points. Some people said that it was unfair because Yin-Yang is way ahead of everyone else. Also, Yin-Yang made a project called "BOTB final 12". Titanium said that Yin-Yang was probably bragging, and then they got in a fight. They eventually truced. Also, Yin-Yang was asking for tokens, but Blocky just said, "Nope." Yin-Yang kept on asking, and then Blocky said that if Yin-Yang asked again, then he would eliminate Yin-Yang. That caused Yin-Yang to stop asking.

On BOTB 6C, it didn't give out tokens, later to be revealed that the token store shut down because of Covid-19. Instead, people got free points.

The graph below shows the scoreboard for 6C.

(+10 for no legs, +10 for no arms, +45 for Glass and TNT for being best friends, +100 for people in the bottom 3, +70 for people who did the challenge, and +80 for people with both arms and legs.)

So Lava, Emerald, and Diamond were UFE. On 6C, people made confessionals, but these weren't shown, and only the 6D confessionals were shown. The old 6D was deleted accidentally, so a new project was made. Also, Blocky was making the intro, so 6E was delayed.

6E was made on November 17. It was a 2-day delay.

Here are the confessionals:

1. Yin-Yang: 1. BOTB is not BOTB. This BOTB is BOTB. 2. There is no way I'm letting Lava or Emerald down. 3. If Lava or Emerald get eliminated, I swear I'll SMASH MY LAPTOP AND DO HEADBANGS ON THE FLOOR!!
2. Glass: Phew, I'm now in 5th place! At least I moved 2 spots away from elimination!
3. Gold: 1. Yeah, toast! 2. Pokemon, mon, mon 3. I wanna be the very best, like no one ever was, and if I get eliminated next, then I'll be mad

Emerald got no votes, being the 3rd contestant to not get a vote. Lava got only one vote, and Diamond received 7 votes, or 87.5% of all votes. His elimination text was this:

Diamond, even though you came short in the game, you were the first gem eliminated.

Since Blocky told Yin-Yang that he'd make up for the no tokens in the episode. Instead, it was ANOTHER DOUBLE ELIMINATION! Lava got the second most votes, at only one vote, but he was eliminated anyways. Here is lava's elimination text:

Lava, you were my second favorite block (After Redstone). I had to make up for it since a double elimination is what I had in mind. Goodbye

Yin-Yang complained a lot to the elimination. Glass and Yin-Yang called Blocky "A prankster". Also, around this time, Glass made a official BOTB wiki on Scratch. Blocky would make the wiki later, but with some modifications.

## Trivia

* Even though Glass and Yin-Yang called Blocky a prankster for thinking that Lava's elimination was a prank, it's true that Blocky is a prankster.
* This is the first episode where tokens weren't given out.
* This episode was the second and last time there was a double elimination.
* Gold's third confessional is a reference to the song "Gotta Catch 'Em All!".
