A History of Blue Lighting Machine Names

1996 - Hexcalibur - Our HS was the Blue Knights, The year was Hexagon Havoc. So Hexcalibur was a play on both the hexagonal field and excalibur the famous sword of King Aurthur.

1997 - Blue Dragon - We're the Blue Knights/Blue Lightnings...knights slay dragons...yeah...oh and our robot kinda looked like a dinasaur/dragon.

1998 - El-e-Vador - I'm not even sure where this one came from entirely...basically I think it was because our robot kinda seemed like an elevator. Also because the name "soda-can-skillet" was shot down by administration (inside joke form 98).

1999 - Astrobot 2000 - My friend Tom jokingly said hey let's name it Astrobot 2000...because in 1999 everything was 2000 this or 2000 that...the administration loved it an the name stuck.

2000 - Last Chance - This was to be the last year of Blue Lightning's existance and everyone knew it. There for it was really Blue Lightning's last chance to shine...the last chance for the engineers to win something and the last hoora as Blue Lightning.

That about sums up the machine names 4 the years I was on the team.
