So I'm running @battlebotschampionshiptournament and right now we're doing a revival round. Normally I try to keep my opinions on what bots are sexy and not to myself as I don't want to influence the vote. But I think that in this specific case that there are enough participants that are being voted on, and so long as my opinions aren't posted to that account that it won't change things much. Because so far... There are some things that are very entertaining about how things are turning out thus far!
Group 1: It is very funny to me that there are 4 rookies in that group, so it's not surprising that HYDRA is winning by a decent margin! But damn... I like Big Dill and Beta... Like, Big Dill's builder only has one hand, and he's still a really good driver! I can't help but to like Big Dill for that! And why do people not like Beta!? It's a hammer bot like dark horse Shatter! And it has that big ol' honkin' wedge! That wedge is sexy as hell, and so is its big ass fuckoff hammer! One hell of a scary hammer! It's a shame that not many people are voting for Beta! I love Beta! Also poor Banshee with no votes. Makes sense, but still.
Group 2: It's surprising just how well Ominous is doing, and how not well Skorpios is doing! I thought that people like Skorpios! That plow of theirs? Hella sexy. But more people should be voting for Kraken. Kraken is a sexy bot! (Though I think that previous versions of Kraken were sexier than this current one. It has a few problems that it still needs to work out to be my top sexy vote!) But what hurts me the most... No votes for Jackpot...? I LOVE Jackpot! Jackpot is a favorite of mine! I like that it's a budget bot, and anyone who can show me a good time and save money while they're doing it is sexy in my opinion! I like its theming! I just love Jackpot alright! How dare you not vote for my boy like this! ;O; I voted for Gruff because Gruff is the best flamethrower in the game and is built like a shit brickhouse, and I had doubts that anyone else would be voting for Gruff and if Gruff got no votes, that would break my damn little heart! BUT IT ALSO BEAKS MY HEART THAT JACKPOT IS GETTING NO VOTES! ;O; I love two boys! Why can't I vote for them both!? JACKPOT NO!
Group 3: The person who said that this is the most mid group was right lol. And yet this is the group that has the most votes!??? How is the most mediocre group getting the most votes!? How does that math work out!? Weird to see. Almost double of group 2! (Which currently has the least number of votes at 25. Meanwhile group 3 has 49 votes!) Black Dragon is sexy tho. Also shout out to the guy who wrote "gigabyte sweep" into the tags... And then apparently didn't vote for Gigabyte! Gigabyte still has no votes! So people just don't think it's sexy lol! Gigabyte no sweep apparently! :p
Group 4: Probably the most exciting group and the most difficult to pick who to vote for! I am very surprised that Whiplash is presently winning! I didn't expect anyone to want to vote for it and no one said that they were voting for it in their tags or anything! SO surprise surprise! Rotator is still super sexy tho and honestly I felt like I was betraying Rotator by not voting for it and voting for Whiplash instead! I usually vote for the losers! So I'm sorry Rotator! You deserve the win! I just didn't expect Whiplash to be winning! ;O; Also I'm surprised that more people haven't voted for Fusion! Fusion is so hot that it's on fire! I would expect the Whyachi's to all be doing well in this given how popular they are! But apparently not!
So there you go. My opinions as the person running this whole thing. :p We still have a week to go on this, so I could be surprised! But go vote while you still can!

*kicks down door* IT’S TOURNAMENT PROPAGANDA TIME (tagging @battlebotschampionshiptournament as requested hehe (and also because that's where the tournament is lol))
As the blog named tritonposting, it is my inherent moral duty to post about Triton– more specifically, to post a list of reasons why he is the sexiest robot in the WCVII Battlebots roster. His first round is tomorrow, so I figured I'd get this out early to capture the largest possible audience.
The Propaganda List is 17 items long, and mostly divided into one group of verbal elaborations + one group of images, because I am just a little too enthusiastic about this.
For legal reasons this is all ironic yeah this is totally for the haha funnies no I am not unironically attracted to this robot what do you mean
(Under the cut because Long Post)
1. Firstly, to sway those of you who are more into humans than bots, I present you with my artwork of a human AU Triton:
Tumblr media
A dashing himbo, no?
2. Shape language is everything when designing a combat robot. Rounder shapes (example: those found on Blip and Rusty) indicate a cuter, more approachable persona. Triton, on the other hand, is mostly angles. Thanks to that, he looks fierce and intimidating, which is immensely sexy of him.
Tumblr media
4. I mentioned the blade, and realized that was worth making a separate point of, because… have you seen it?!? Not only is it 80 pounds– the heaviest a weapon can be, according to the rulebook– but it’s elegant, sleek, and casts one hell of a shadow. When your bot’s weapon alone is iconic enough to be used as a logo, as Team Overboard has utilized it, that’s how you know you’ve designed something that’s a cut above the rest.
5. Related to the last point: If you’ve heard his death hum, you already know why this is an item on the list. If you haven’t… here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2w-x-GAC9gI
Now you have. Forget the roar of your standard spinner, this thing screams. To some, this is a scary sound, a hallowing reminder that combat robots, when pitted against humans, easily become death machines. To me? It just makes this freakin’ robot even hotter.
6. PROTECTED. WHEELS.
7. INVERTIBLE.
8. SELF. RIGHTING. ASS. SPIKE.
9. FAST. FUCKING. SPIN-DOWN. TIME.
10. Points 6-9 (hehe funni) highlight the engineering intricacies few notice at first glance, but that have contributed to making Triton the immediate– relative– success he is. (2-2 isn’t bad for a rookie bot, especially considering some 1-3 bots made it into this year’s RO32!) Team Overboard had some intense time/location constraints to work with this year, given the timing of Deep Six’s rejection, so these tiny details couldn’t have been planned out very far in advance. Understanding how quickly the builders drew up such ingenuity from scratch makes Triton’s design even more impressive. (Just in case I’m losing you in the technicalities, well-engineered robot = sexy robot!!!)
I have run out of words, off to images/gifs we go!!
11. This <3
Tumblr media
12. This 😳
Tumblr media
13. He is a big boy confirmed (Jackpot for scale)
Tumblr media
14. Shiny murder robot ugh 😩
Tumblr media
15. This smooth bonk
Tumblr media
16. Scared boy 💖💖💖 (I know fear isn’t very sexy but you know what is?? Trying your best)
Tumblr media
17. Last but not least, he dressed up as Tombstone for Halloween, robot cosplay is inherently hot (prove me wrong, u can’t)
Tumblr media
TL;DR: Vote Triton for Sexiest Battlebot 2023!!!!
