Who built what, tho?
1: What in the everloving **** is that...
2: Feels like a Mazakari build to me. Nice and simple, I love it.
3: Feels like something Kurt would make. I dunno, not the most exciting.
4: ohi Apanx. Moving on...
5: ohi Thrackerzod. Moving on...
6: sh** me, that's awesome. Probably a RedAce build.
7: Feels like Guldenflame quality to me, but iunno.

Overall: Good effort, some neat designs and some total WTFery here, but all have effort and it is a gud. :3

My verdict and possible guesses:
1. Well if you didn't want to build a IRL Heavy-Weight, build something on a theme. Still cool looking.
2. Could of done with better weaponry but I love the character behind all of this. Gives the bot some personal identity behind the nervous wreck.
3. Nice chassis paint job. Could do well in a tournament.
4. Call me a long-nose Jew. I've seen better Nazi-bots than that like what 090901 built for Light Vs Dark.
5. True Thrackerzod quality here. Moving on!
6. This make me envious to build an awesome and workable IRL bot.
7. Yeah. It's really "Impractical" for whoever to make spelling mistakes on the splash.

My thoughts:
1. What the Mundo?! HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE?! It is a cool design.
2. Reminds me of Clawed Hopper! It has character, I'm not sure how but it suits the name.
3. Looks groovy! Nice and simple colour scheme!
4. It's cool...not sure what else to say. xD
5. Clever design...and scary! Looks like it could actually work really well!
6. Reminds me of Icewave: really digging the design and colours!
7. Interesting design, not really seen anything like this before.

Some nice robots, really like #2 it gives a very distinct old school RW feel, and the double Tombstone made me giggle (except it would be a double Mortician since it should be a HW).
And come on! Who did that Ice-Wave clone didn't even try with the name! Very  a s t h e t i c  the title color.

1.  It, uh, sure is a gun.
2. Not bad.  Don't care much for how the internal shot and the weight are just plopped on there.
3. Splash and bot are both nice, but I'm just not finding it particularly inspiring.
4. "Where's all the Nazi stuff?" - Lewis Brindley, 2017.
5. Obviously the best splash here, gets all of my votes.
6. Also nice.  I like it more than Mandelboi, even though this one is an extenderbot.  I would predict this one to win.
7. Interesting design but hurt by low-res picture.  Text is a bit wonky too.

1: The first serious BOTM in a while and it's meme'd. Not getting my vote, keep your memes in meme BOTMs. God knows, probably Kurt. He made pixel art when the DSC extenders and RA2CF came out so it's possible.
2: Old RW feel, but the splash and robot feels, meh. like, the name doesn't make sense, the yellow-red side plate clashes on the green-black body... just doesn't have coherency. Also if that hashtag is unironic then this entry is a no-go for me. I'm going to say Mazakari, his skinning makes it seem like the side panels was him.
3: Splash is a just a little bit meh but alright, the skin is odd in my opinion. just not a fan, personally. Not a bad robot, just not good enough for the front page. Sorry. Kurt, because Lights and Sounds, or DemonOfTomorrow because Ring Spinner.
4: See Entry 1. Apanx.
5: See Entry 1. Also you fueled Asbesto's belief that Golem could beat Tombstone. What have you done? Thrackerzod.
6: ****ING. YES. Only the name is iffy about this robot, and maybe the ICE is small and too intricate but holy **** this is a good use of RA2CF. Badnik/Redace.
7: Ugh. If you think a robot is a bit sh**, no offense but just don't post it for BOTM. Guldenflame.

Ah, yes. Guns are my favorite meme of all.
How you make Alarm Clock Pizza is:
Step 1: You buy an alarm clock from the store, and then you have to break it and put it in the sauce.
Step 2: Fold the sauce in 5 slices and put it in the dough.
Step 3: Paint the eggs with a pitcher of a clock showing what time you want to wake up and eat pizza for breakfast.
Step 4: Put the eggs in the dough.
Step 5: Make it flat into a round shape and draw the time you want on it.
Step 6: Put some old steel to prevent other peple from stealing it.
Step 7: Make it flat and cut into 60 slices 1 for each minute in 1 our.
Step 8: Put in the oven set the timer to 30048813.2884 seconds and put the temperature on 'Volcano' setting.
Step 9: If you think it is take to long, then get yor alarm clock and set it to now so that it will ring and you can take it out.
Step 10: Take it out uv the uvin wen it is redy and go to bed. In the morning eat pizza and also eat yor hands bi mistake.
