Web Video / FitMC

FitMC is a YouTuber mainly uploading videos about the oldest anarchy server in Minecraft, 2b2t, a server owned by Hausemaster that is mostly lawless: any construction, destruction, and cheat use may be done at will, and nobody gets banned. Many of his videos are edited like documentaries, often from archived footage from other players. Additionally, he also records his own commentated footage of his own playtime on the server, thus doubling as a Let's Play.

His older videos are also more straightforward Let's Plays of his own time on 2b2t. Before that, he played Team Fortress 2, which comprise the content of his oldest videos.

For tropes related to his character on the QSMP, which 2b2t is canon to, see here.

Content Warning: It's important to note that if you're interested in going to 2b2t, the server is INFAMOUS for its toxic culture and players. Due to a lack of a chat filter and moderation, people there will say some very nasty stuff. For those who can't tolerate some of the most toxic behavior out there, this server is not for the faint of heart.

Did you know that FitMC videos about the oldest anarchy server in Minecraft can be described with tropes?

• Anarchy Is Chaos: 2b2t. It's an "anarchy server" where there are no rules and is probably the most chaotic Minecraft server out there.^However... It should be noted that it's not true anarchy as Fit points out in "The Day 2b2t Almost Died", as Hausemaster apparently gave several people who would become a part of the Nerds Inc. (formerly known as The Tyranny) admin. There are also rules and patches to ensure the game is as vanilla as possible while still allowing for exploits.
• Badass Bookworm: Fit's easily one of 2b2t's most knowledgeable historians, and also has the skills to excel in PvP and griefing as well.
• Becoming the Mask: The tale of PoliceMike, or rather, his impersonator, ends up becoming this. After activity-packed years of someone else playing as PoliceMike, the imposter slipped up and was caught in his lies. The result, however, isn't too bad, as plenty of the 2b2t community still respected the impersonator, and they would eventually truly make the account their own, changing their name to TheMilkManMike to establish their own identity.
• Cargo Cult: Fit gets to meet the "Crafting Table Cult" within a terrain that they have "terraformed" entirely into crafting tables. The Cult votes for their leader/pope on a 2 week basis, vaticam-style, where they designate new projects and ideas towards the group — often to further the cause of spreading the "good word" on their religion and building gigantic structures shaped in the format of the crafting table itself.
• Character Catchphrase: He's got a few that pop up in most of his videos.
  • Fit will always remind players that 2b2t is "the oldest anarchy server in Minecraft" at the beginning of many of his videos.
  • He usually closes out his videos by saying to "stay alive out there, Fit fam".
  • "The server's admin, Hausmaster", when referring to, well, the server's admin, usually said exactly that same way.
• Cheated Death, Died Anyway: HenryCarls_ managed to recover from being kicked out of 2b2t by a glowstone lag machine but died when he tried to jump into water and missed.
• Cool and Unusual Punishment: Instead of banning players directly, the admin of 2b2t, Hausemaster unusually prefers to punish players who create lag machines by prohibiting offending players from purchasing spots in a priority queue, making sure that if they wanted to come back to the server, they would have to wait a very long time to come back. Fit notes that the community finds this a fitting enough punishment despite the chance of priority-banned players returning anyway.
• Colbert Bump: In-Universe. This trope usually happens when a YouTuber makes a video on 2b2t and results in an influx of new players that leads to various incursions happening. Discussed in this video, where Fit shows that Rusher's arrival actually saved the server from falling into obscurity after the drama with Tyranny. He even goes on a rant that youtubers like AntVenom and Rusher keep the server alive, this being one of the few times he actually showed disdain towards someone, in this case being a 2b2t player who takes the server's YouTubers for granted.
  Fit: If you play on 2b2t and you legitimately hate YouTubers, you're a moron. YouTubers saved this server. I watched this server almost die. YouTubers brought it back to life so next time you complain about YouTubers, you should thank us! We saved the server for you!
• Curb-Stomp Battle:
  • When Fit gets mobbed by a group of lag machine builders after he gets a glimpse of their machine being reconstructed, Fit's armor is soon destroyed in the ensuing battle and he is forced to disconnect to prevent death. Fit being on his own meant that he had no chance of beating his pursuers no matter what he tried.
  • Beardler's fight against the Boedecken, Block Game Mecca and Fit himself during the griefing of his base. Not only was he horribly outnumbered, but he was also caught by surprise, with him being attacked as soon as he logged in. He doesn't even have a chance to escape his pursuers and as soon as he loses all of his fireworks and lands on the ground, he is crystal bombed by fit and logs out
• Defeating the Undefeatable: Downplayed as the "undefeatable" weren't infamous for combat, but Kingoros' battle against Popbob AND iTristan, completely vanilla against two of the biggest griefers in 2b2t with some of the strongest hack clients, has the former defeating the duo all on his own, killing iTristan, and making Popbob combat log. (Basically leaving in the middle of battle to retreat)
• Democracy Is Flawed: Ironically enough for an "anarchy" server, 2b2t's in-server factions will rarely have an anarchist or direct democratic structure, often putting the most skilled or veteran player in charge by default indefinitely, no voting required. A few factions and groups subvert this though, with Fit emiting visible surprise towards the Crafting Table Cult electing their pope through a democratic vote on a 2 week basis.
• Deus ex Machina: The last half of Fit's video “The Day 2b2t Almost Died" appears to end on a downer note, with most of the 2b2t playerbase leaving the server (resulting in the lowest player numbers on 2b2t) and Fit saying that the server was about to die due to the drama. Then out of nowhere, TheCampingRusher makes a video on 2b2t that results in its revival and "brings worldwide fame" to the server. In his words, Rusher and his fans allowed the server to be turned into a role-playing battlefield, in contrast to the server's old days which Fit calls "a place for edgy nerds to hang out".
  Fit: If Rusher hadn't shown up, then this server would be dead.
• Everyone Has Standards: The lesson of the "The Darkest Week on 2b2t". Even the free-for-all 2b2t playerbase was not amused by the developers of their game clients trying to insert unwarranted backdoors spying on users' browser data.
  • While Fit does publicly mention people that are involved with the topic of his videos, there are a few times when he outright states he refuse to promote the object or person by name due to just how low they go, such as releasing a hack client that steals personal info, or stealing info from someone in real life right under their nose.
    Fit: I will not be naming the individual responsible, because when you stoop to the absolute lowest levels, you don't deserve the clout from a FitMC video.
  • As Fit mentions several times, 2b2t's community doesn't really care about what you do in the server - while using exploits to crash the server and ban unsuspecting victims might earn you the ire of plenty of players and cause Hausemaster himself to intervene to shut down the exploit, a few in the community will still respect your actions due to the skills necessary to pull off something like that. However, an exception is made when you go after players in real life for a in-game advantage. Those who do doxxing are shuned by practically all in-game groups and even former allies will turn on them quickly if they learn they are doing this, as bard's former friend found out in the hard way.
• Fight Clubbing: As the title of it implies, Fight Club (Which was indeed named after the Fight Club film) is one of these, where players brawl it out in fist fights in an arena located in a different location every time it's hosted, fighting for both loot, and popularity. However, due to how it's ran with its coordinates being announced, it's very common for griefers to arrive to nuke the place some time into the event.
• Gone Horribly Right: Fit notes occasional instances of this trope when Hausemaster attempts to implement a plugin to fix something else. A plugin to neuter illegal items being stored elsewhere accidentally created the perfect means for a lag machine, as furnaces could be tightly packed together and the plugin would inspect every single one, causing any players stepping foot in furnace-filled chunks to be kicked infinitely.
• He Knows Too Much: Fit uses an alt account to observe the reconstruction of a furnace-based lag machine after its destruction. He is attacked by a mob of construction workers soon after he arrives on the site to catch a glimpse of the reborn machine, and only survives by disconnecting.
• Kansas City Shuffle: After hearing of a group called The Brownmen (Who caused the event called "The Bakery") allegedly kicking players with bread involved, Fit decides to visit The Brownmen's kick trap on an alt to see it for himself, expecting some exploit involving bread to kick him. He finds out later that bread was not involved in the kicking mechanism, but a glowstone lag machine was the culprit.
• Karma Houdini Warranty: Beardler quit 2b2t after managing to successfully betray 2 bases and steal all of their "historic" items and hiding them away, thus negating any chance of the base members of getting revenge on him... until he returned to 2b2t two years later in 2018, and forming friendships with new players who didn't know about his past and creating a base with them. With the base location being revealed in 2021, the two groups whose bases were griefed by him united together to finally get back at him for what happened 3 years earlier.
• Language Barrier: The Nihongun comprised a group of Japanese-speaking 2b2t players, with only one of them able to speak English. Conversely, other anglophone 2b2t players couldn't understand them either. Fit cites this as one factor contributing to initial hostilities between the anglophones and the Japanese invokedNewbie Boom.
• The Mole: Fit becomes this in the MrBeast video. He asks for a rough outline of MrBeast’s plans, so he can potentially warn the rest of the server. He manages to convince MrBeast and his crew not to film a video on 2b2t and is the one that tells the Incursion about the video’s cancellation.
• Monumental Damage: Nothing is off-limits on 2b2t, so this trope is inevitable. Examples of this include the Valley Of Wheat, Fitlantis and the Jesus statue at Imperator's Base.
• Names to Run Away from Really Fast: Hitlerwood. Somewhat subverted in that the group behind the base, The Facepunch Republic, wasn't any worse or more nasty than other 2b2t groups, and (As far as know) no members held any Those Wacky Nazis beliefs.
• Nasty Party: A group of Usada Pekora fans, the Nihongun, had a problem with a griefer attempting to grind the construction of their massive obsidian Usada portrait to a halt. Their solution? They organized a fake boat race party, and ordered everyone, including the infiltrating griefer, to go to bed in order to get ready for the "race". As the griefer dozed off, the fans quickly set up a spawnkill trap around his bed.
• invokedNo Such Thing as Bad Publicity: Defied when Fit refuses to name players that have done deeds that even 2b2t players were universally angry at, such as forcibly stealing players' private data (whether via malware or sneaking over to a player's computer in real life).
• No Swastikas: Enforced by YouTube’s algorithm in The 2b2t Base That Disappeared when Fit, not wanting to get his video demonetized, has to refer to The Guy From WWII Who Was Not Very Nice as “Brad Pitt” and the symbol The Guy From WWII Who Was Not Very Nice used during WWII as “Windmills”.
• Nothing Is the Same Anymore: The Fall of Minecraft's 2b2t details how Nerds Inc. (Formerly known as The Tyranny) used an exploit to expose just about EVERY location on 2b2t's map, locating just about every player, build and base, along with huge stashes. This effectively rendered 2b2t no longer the same to a majority of the playerbase, as people felt off how just about everything they worked on was no longer safe or secret. And unlike when Nerds Inc. was granted adminship in the infamous third backdoor incident and breaking the server's trust in anarchy, this was done completely through vanilla.
• Obvious Rule Patch: While 2b2t does allow players to use exploits, Hausemaster tends to patch out major exploits such as flight and invincibility in order to keep gameplay as close to vanilla as you can get while still allowing hack clients.
• Outside-the-Box Tactic: Many of Fit's videos are about how players use such tactics to grief other players. They include:
  • Using furnaces to overload an anti-illegal-items checker to create an infinite kick loop.
  • Creating a mechanism that turns lamps on and off rapidly, leading to a lag machine, and then also an infinite kick loop.
  • Triangulating a base's location based on thunder.
  • Filling shulkers with books full of text to kick any players possessing them.
• invokedOvershadowed by Controversy: Discussed in “The Day 2b2t Almost Died”, and the reason Fit refused to tell the truth about the third backdoor incident until another YouTuber named fastvincent1 made a video about it, as he feared letting the truth out too soon would kill 2b2t’s reputation and enjoyment for new players, and his channel as well.
• Precision F-Strike: Fit VERY rarely swears in his videos, even when he's ticked off about a subject, but when he does, you know it's serious. One notable example is when he found Popbob's illegal End Portal.
  Fit: Popbob, you son of a bitch.
• Rewarded as a Traitor Deserves: Bard's former friend was kicked out of his griefing group when they discovered that he committed a crime and betrayed his friend outside of Minecraft to acquire the information necessary for the base griefing.
• The Starscream: jared2013 is an infamous example, as during the Seventh Incursion, he would work his way through the ranks to steal control of it for himself, though this would lead to the Incursion’s failure, and ultimately heralded the end of traditional Incursions as we knew them.
• Teeth-Clenched Teamwork: The 2b2t community is infamous for being in wars within the server, and members would rather die or kill each other before they had to team up. However, there are moments that show the community can indeed work together, such as the iconic Incursions where a majority of the server teamed up against a threat that could flood the server with new players.
• There Is No Kill Like Overkill: A criterion for his "The History of 2b2t's Most Severe Griefs" video is that the destroyed area must not only be destroyed once, but multiple times despite reconstruction efforts, and at least 95% of the original area's blocks must have been removed.
• Weird Trade Union: The Highway Worker's Union is a group whose main objective is the maintenance of the Nether highways used for transportantion both within the dimension and in the Overworld - they are much more respected than one might think out of such a niche group thanks to how important and widely these highways are for both new players and veterans, and they are generally mentioned by Fit whatever the Nether highways are an important aspect of his current vídeo.
• We Used to Be Friends: This ocurred some time between iTristan and jared2013, leading to jared to grief Imps Base, iTristan using his backdoor access at the time to clone the base and move it elsewhere, and for jared to go on a several year-long quest for revenge to seek out and destroy this duplicate.
