In Partnership With Discord: Discord Bot Competition
General Competition Information
The way it works is that you build and deploy Discord bots with Repl.it and then submit your bot here on the challenge board. If you're new to building bots with Repl.it then start by reading one of the following guides:
- Building a Discord Bot with Python and Repl.it
- Building a Discord bot with Node.js and Repl.it
- Building a Discord bot in Ruby
Or if you're impatient then start by forking this example and following the instructions in the comments.
You can join the Repl.it Discord Server and ask the moderators to add your bot to develop it with other Repl.it users. Or you can develop it on your own server. Feel free to ask questions on the here on the Ask board or in the Discord server #help channel.
Competition starts: Monday, Nov 12 12:01 PM UTC
Competition ends: Monday, Nov 26 12:01 PM UTC
Prizes
Instead of first, second, and third place prizes, this time, there will be five winners selected by the Repl.it team. Each winner will receive:
- Discord swag (t-shirt and stickers)
- Three months of hacker plan for free (worth $21)
- 100 extra cycles (upvotes) added to their account
These five winners will be picked for these categories:
- Fun (e.g. a game bot)
- Utility (e.g. a bot that helps evaluate code)
- Moderation (e.g. a bot that helps manage roles)
Submission Criteria:
In order to be considered, your submission:
- Must be a discord bot
- Must be hosted on Repl.it
- Must be age-appropriate
- Please include a gif of your bot in action
Please include the URL to add your bot to a server so others can use it!
I will challenge at high noon!
How would free accounts obfuscate their token?
@JACKDIGNAN you can use .env files. They are hidden
Thanks for sharing knowledge! :)

Hey @timmy_i_chen when will the result of the Bots competition come out?
@davidglauberset Definitely by Monday!
@timmy_i_chen But Monday has passed, and why have not I been warned with any emails that I have won?
@davidglauberset Today is Saturday O_o
When are you going to tell us who won?
@fullern000 i wanna know too
I'm trying to incorporate filewriting with my discord bot. The file doesn't look like it is updating but the bot still works with the new version of the file. I can't tell if this is a problem with my code or a problem with repl's real time file updates. Do discord bots have a specific problem with filewriting?
@Zogip2 This is a repl.it thing - we're working on fixing it up but its a bit of a tricky process. Sorry for the trouble!
@timmy_i_chen Oh, so that's why my things sometimes don't work
@Coder100 It should be fixed now - are you still hitting issues?
@timmy_i_chen no, looks like it’s fixed now. Thanks!
I have a question IF you don’t win can you still see which place you get on?
@firecraftgaming Nope, we aren't ranking all of them, just the top 5.
@timmy_i_chen ok when do you shout out the winners but I don't think I am gonna win but when?
@firecraftgaming Within the next few days - takes a while to go through all the awesome bots!
Im sorry i though i submit the bot here so i didnot see the publish bot on the start side can i still be in the competion
@firecraftgaming and i can't publish the bot now and i don't know what to do now
@firecraftgaming go ahead and submit it still, as a separate post
@timmy_i_chen Do you review all bots submitted or only those on the top and hot category?
@Deniernal354 All that are submitted to the board :)
@timmy_i_chen When do you announce the results?
@Deniernal354 Probably two or three days - we have to go through each and every bot submission. :)

Very good, I hope to succeed in this competition:
I did a Bot Discord of stone, paper and scissors with placement;)
How do we host it without our token getting leaked?
Are we limited to one submission(one bot)?
@TrueXPixels Nope! You can submit more than one!
hi whats going on
@JoshuaDouble A competition to see who can make the best Discord bot!
Game on
!!!
@ZazerYT BRING IT ON!
Hey, is it a must that the bot for the bot to be hosted on repl.it or can I give a link to the staff for them to review it but keep it hosted on my server? Also if it isn't a must do you support Gitlab push/pull?
@Deniernal354 Hi! It is required that your bot be hosted on Repl.it. Would you be able to upload the files? You can drag the entire directory onto the filetree and it will upload (no need to include packages like node_modules)
@timmy_i_chen Hi ok thanks for confirming that it should be hosted on Repl.it and I'll try to upload the files. Also a small question can the bot have NSFW commands that won't display NSFW content unless they are ran in a proper NSFW channel.
@Deniernal354 Depends on the nature of the NSFW content. Based on your bot (Valk) I think there is some stuff that we definitely would not allow in our server. You are more than welcome to host a different version of the bot without the NSFW commands.
@timmy_i_chen Instead of me needing to host another version of the bot I can simply disable the entire NSFW module. Would that be accepted?
@Deniernal354 Per our conversation on Discord (just reposting here so other readers see), the NSFW bits have to be removed from the code entirely. Thanks for understanding!
Game On!
