OHB
For general information about the different battle stages like entry and voting periods, how to enter the battle and stats, please visit XHB.
The OHB lasts one hour. All entries should be uploaded before this time expires. If an OHBist needs more time to upload their entry then they can use the "Submit late" button (or add /Submit to the end of the OHB URL), but this means that the OHBist will not be able to claim any points for uploading to that OHB!! Their entry will also lose one point per minute late on their final score and this could affect their placing (effective 16 aug 2013) so submit early and be on time!!!!
You are not allowed to premake an entry for an OHB (unless the rules specify otherwise)!
The top three entrants are given gold (), silver (), or bronze () OHB trophies that appear on their profile.
To host an OHB, there are four requirements that you must meet:
Admins (), Mighty BotBrs () with seven or more format badges, and Ascended BotBrs () can host a battle in any format, but they also need the 725* boons.
You're able to disable late penalties by paying b500 extra. (You don't get them back and participants still get latist points, so be aware!)
* The cost of hosting an OHB was reduced in mid-2023 from 750 to 725 boons: post link
