"Who got Bronze?" is a question to ask someone who got third place in a battle of the bits compo. It is usually asked during result announcements in chat, when someone is curious about the winner of the bronze medal.
It became a meme to specifically ask about this rank rather than silver or gold, after kleeder (thats me btw, im writing this rn. it actually feels weird to write about myself from a narrators perspective but here we are) got mad about always only winning bronze in battles. kleeder had a lot more bronze ohb medals back then than golds or silvers (srsly, this is so weird, im gonna switch to first person next time).
In 2020, when there was the big rise in battle activity, kleeder (me) anticipated the next medal to be bronze again and mostly got it right.
After a while, I (kleeder (see, i switched now, much more convenient)) started to ask hanna (why hanna? im not sure anymore, it might be because she was around at that time) who got bronze in a battle while announcing results, and she usually replied "oh, its you, kleeder", which was obviously correct.
This became a meme.
It became a funny to ask during sluts, even if the currently announced rank is in the tincan area or earlier, who got the bronze. Some very cool people (namely the Ominous Pigeon Master for example), immediately tell you the bronze rank and then move on with the actual order.
Pointing out the bronzw winner specifically during results is a common thing due to this meme.
