The Tiny Loser Chamber (or TLC for short) is a container used to hold various characters and objects throughout the Battle for Dream Island series. It is a large, gray, lidded metal box with its name written on the side. Its walls are five inches (12.7 cm) thick. The Tiny Loser Chamber's lid opened for five minutes a day until BFDIA 1.
Coverage[]
Battle for Dream Island[]
In the first season, the Tiny Loser Chamber is used to contain eliminated contestants. It first appears in "Bridge Crossing", where in Woody is thrown into the Tiny Loser Chamber by the Sender Scoop Thrower.
In "Puzzling Mysteries", when Needle is eliminated, the Tiny Loser Chamber becomes too populated to hold any more contestants. As a result, between the events of "Cycle of Life" and of "Insectophobe's Nightmare", the Tiny Loser Chamber is enlarged.
In "Reveal Novum", the eliminated contestants accidentally send the Tiny Loser Chamber into a lake; they are subsequently saved by sunrise.
In "The Glistening", when the Announcer and the contestants ride back to Earth, they go through the Tiny Loser Chamber, ripping through it, changing the words to simply "Tiny Chamber". The heat of the Tiny Loser Chamber is the most prominent reason for which the eliminated contestants choose Ice Cube to be eliminated.
In "Hurtful!", Firey Speaker Box smelts down the contestants who are metal due to a side effect from the yoyleberries, and fixes the TLC, re-scribbling LOSER onto the middle in red print.
Later seasons[]
In Battle for Dream Island Again, the Tiny Loser Chamber is used to contain the season 2 non-participants and the eliminated contestants. It is kept inside the Locker of Losers for extra protection. From "Intruder Alert" onward, eliminated contestants are unable to enter the TLC, as TV stole the key to the LOL before being flung inside. It was replaced with the Weak Trembling Fortress.
In "Well, Look Who It Is!", the TLC prisoners decide to split themselves into two groups: the characters who failed to join BFDIA would make up one group, while the BFDIA eliminated contestants would make up the other. A line of chalk divided the two group's territories. Ironically, the larger group was given less room than the smaller one.
Pen notices that Coiny is struggling to take the Underworld version of Pin to the Earth's surface and is horrified to see her in her glitched states. As such, he demands that Snowball move the TLC/LOL away from Coiny and Pin. He does this by using Fanny as a propeller and a handle as a crank. A group of characters start cranking, and the TLC/LOL quickly flies away from them. Later on in the episode, Firey notices the LOL with its propeller flying and instructs Gelatin to use the Enhancement-L-Yoy-Ser on it. He does this, causing the prisoners to panic. Snowball takes control of the handle and flies the LOL into the laser, causing most of the prisoners to receive new designs.
In "Welcome Back", it is revealed that the TLC/LOL is in Yoyleland, near Yoyle City. The free characters agree to use a Wall Teleporter to extract the Tiny Loser Chamber's prisoners.
The Tiny Loser Chamber appears in neither Battle for BFDI nor Battle for Dream Island: The Power of Two; all of the eliminated contestants have escaped, and eliminated contestants are sent to EXIT pre-split, BRB post-split, and the currently unnamed TPOT elimination area instead.

Trivia[]
- Firey, Leafy, Bubble, Gelatin, Yellow Face, and Bomby are the only BFDI/A contestants who were never sent to the TLC.
- Ice Cube and Rocky are the only contestants who had no chance to leave the Tiny Loser Chamber after being eliminated before the finale.
- The TLC might be made out of Yoyle Metal, since said metal was used to repair it.
- The repaired TLC has imprints of Flower, Firey, Bubble, Leafy, and Spongy in it.
- Ice Cube, Evil Leafy, Cloudy, Lightning, 8-Ball, Bell, and Grassy are the only characters who have escaped from the Tiny Loser Chamber.
- Match is the only contestant in BFDIA to be eliminated and not go to the TLC/LOL right away before the Weak Trembling Fortress is introduced.
- It is assumed that the Tiny Loser Chamber is virtually weightless, due to the fact that the entire chamber was able to bounce off a pair of springy shoes in "Reveal Novum".
- The TLC is also known to be fire-proof since the sun could carry it.
- However, it is not waterproof or fully sealed when closed, as water started seeping into the TLC while it was in the river.
- TLC also stands for Tender Loving Care, which means to treat someone or something in a kind or caring way. This is why the Announcer said that eliminated contestants would be treated with "TLC."
- In "Yeah, Who? I Wanna Know!", Spongy's favorite screen is the TLC.
- On the Humany video where Cary reads out entries from his dream journal, an entry where four game show contestants are being trapped in a small box can be heard.[1] This dream may have been the inspiration for the Tiny Loser Chamber.
- It has also been mentioned in the non-canon video "All I Want for X-mas — SONG by Four & X from BFB".
- In Total Firey Island, the TLC's lid is open for ten minutes a day, whereas in the show it's only five minutes.
- In a 3D view, the Tiny Loser Chamber is squarer than it is in 2D form. The TLC in 2D form looks more rectangular.
- Due to the thickness of the Tiny Loser Chamber's walls, it is impossible to recover a contestant if one dies inside it.[2]
