8b8t

8b8t is a Minecraft anarchy with the premise of being a 2b2t clone. 8b8t began in June 2018, when SevereAutism hosted the server for free. After SevereAutism proved to be abusive, Bait took ownership of the server and still owns it today.

8b8t Overview
8b8t started around late June of 2018, claiming it held true anarchy values, an owner who doesn't abuse, and the 1.12 dupe enabled forever. Now owner, Iz_Da_Bait originally was hosting the server for free for SevereAutism, but he soon showed to be abusive and progressively lost control of the server. In a group effort with the Vault, Faraday1056 is making archive of all kits on 8b8t.

The First day
The server was kept mostly for ServereAustism and Bait while some abusing was done to make sure that the server would appear slightly anarchic, at least for new players who joined. This abusing included building lots of TNT around spawn to create craters, making lavacasts and teleporting to the end to get shulker boxes to hand out to everyone. If you would like a taste of this abusiveness, you may find the kits named "ServereAustism's Gay Beds" (Later Renamed to the unoriginal “Autistic Bed Sheets”), "Autistic Tool Box", "PvP Kit 274.0", and “Autistic Buffet” - which are very rare kits that most likely no longer can be found on the server, after the border griefs. Here is a brief history of the server, edited and/or suggested changes by the people of 8b8t.

10 Days after
A new server was popping up. It was being advertised for its "1.12 Dupe" on many servers including 4b4t, 6a6k, 9b9t, 2b2t and many other clones. In the midst of 3 hours after being up, 8b8t was already running with 12-18 players. 14 days into the server, many people started becoming regulars. And the permanent discord was founded (all the old ones kept being deleted by ServereAustism),

8b8t's Major Battles/Events
On July 25th, 2019, Kory, under the alt c8nt was killed after a attack/inside from Faraday, Desert, Ezra, and TMC3. In a monumental moment, Faraday killed Kory. The next two hours were spent invading and destroying korys machine and spawn, as well as making new long-time enemy Binary0, the creator of the unbreakable armor kits, log out of a fight. Later that day, it was found that TMC's Final Megabase was griefed. This was a very depressing moment, that made this day very bittersweet for Faraday and all of the server as nearly a year old active base was destroyed. However, a new plan began to form in the Golden Millenium megabase, of which the first block was placed by Bait around 7 PM EDT (Griefed 2020).

A Small battle began on 9/1/2019 when iiiAK470iii aka SCP-682-j, or the_taxi_tank wanted to start drama with [[TMC3_ to “revive” the server, despite there already being 7-10 players online that night at once. But that couldn't happen, because TMC3 was not having it. After searching for targets such as Faraday1056, Waterbub, and more, Bait became his next target. AK470 teleported to Waterbub and then attacked bub and the true battle began. Hearing that one of his fellow friends was being attacked, Bait came into the fight to help. Their fight destroyed the landscape and sent them both plummeting to the bottom of the ocean, as they went through hundreds of totems. AK plunged his anime sword into Bait's chest, leaving his dead, however AK had run out of breath, after being underwater for so long, so he died shortly after as well.

Base Infinitum was a mega base started by Infinitum in late july, and worked on by Infinitum, TheBlockyWarrior, And Deathpath13. It started out small, with a single building with a giant "I" on top, and grew in size. During october of 2019, Iz_da_bait, the owner of 8b8t, held a contest for bases and in the end infnitum's base was declared the winner. The base basically was forgot about and it's members did not do much to it afterwards, until around february, when Infinitum decided to continue his projects. Infinitum built a 100x100 obsidian pyramid, to which then a quartz piramyd was added, then a diamond one, an emerand one and finally a gold one. Before this time, the only people to know about the base were blocky and deathpath, but Infinitum began to make a friendship with taxi, who is still a close 8b friend of Infinitum, and he was the first person ever besides the 2 builders that got shown the base. Infinitum shortly after decided to show bait too, knowing he nor taxi would never grief. After finishing with the pyramids, Infinitum took a map of the piramyds, which is now lost to time. After finishing with the pyramids, Infinitum wanted to add a museum, which had some items gifted to them by the_taxi_tank, banners of infamous groups, regular use items, between others. Two weeks after Infnitum showed Faraday1056 the base, it was griefed by desert_bunny, Reminism, And TheRealDunk. There is beef between players to this day. It is speculated that the griefers found the base through a nether portal Infinitum had placed recently. The base was about 10 months old and was griefed on the night of may 3rd. If you wish to see the base for you're self, here is a base tour, there is a world download in the description of the following video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fEv0XDBA4I. "Huge thanks to everyone who helped me build this base" -- Infnitum.

Corona Revival
After recent worldwide events causing the world to shut down due to a pandemic, 8b8t was seeing a massive revival. With up to 20 players online at peak hours on certain days, 8b8t was getting popular again. A flock of Spanish players began to explore the server as a Spanish youtuber made a video about clones, yet were mostly halted by threats and book bans by the older players, against the word of Bait. A new bread item named “Banana Bread” with the lore of “Actually French Toast” was spawned to fuzzbanks, and is currently the most rare hacked item on the server. The Banana Bread was then traded with Discusser for 12 parrots, who has never duped it, and promised to not distribute it to anyone, making it one of the most rare hacked items on the server.
