On 22 March 2020, as a lot of countries around the world were in lockdown due to the pandemic, Blake suggested starting a new Minecraft server to pass time using AstralMod’s suggest command.

After a bit of talking, it was settled that bnbmc5/Q should just be a vanilla game with a few small plugins, most of which were developed in-house to replace specific plugins, such as EssentialsX.

Several discussions arose regarding the server's new name, with suggestions like "bnbmcQ" and "bnbmc5". Some users favored the latter as it symbolized the latest bits & Bytes Minecraft iteration, whereas some considered "bnbmcQ" as a spin-off, an argument that remains unsettled. It was hosted by Victor again. A lot of talk about an economy system, transport and other rather controversial things ensued.

After a few days of testing the server, it was finally launched officially on the 25th at 15:12 UTC. Even though the server was upgraded shortly before its launch, it began lagging massively as soon as enough people joined.

One of the first buildings was a communal tree farm built by Vrabbers. A few residential buildings were built around it.

Trivia

  • This is the only bnbmc iteration that had custom-made plugins for everything
  • The name of this iteration is controversial since some people prefer to call it bnbmcQ due to it being a spin off from bnbmc and some prefer to call it bnbmc5 due to it being the next bits & Bytes Minecraft iteration both are undisputed to this day.
