Ten Years Ago...


SPIRIT

877 views

Today is the day, folks. Ten years.

 

Ten years since what?

 

Ten years since SPIRIT was the undisputed WORLD CHAMPION of the Spinner Challenge on Bionicle.com!

 

 

 

Let me set the stage... *old timey projector sound and radio voice*

 

The year was 2006. In the twilight days of the Hordika storyline, LEGO released a pretty simple online game where the Toa Hordika would battle each other with Rhotuka. It was one of those "choose an attack site and choose a defense site" type games. Zero skill. Complete luck. And the best strategy to win is just to play as many games as possible.

 

As luck would have it, I was sick and had to stay home from school the day the game came out. Within a matter of hours, I was crowned World Champion by my persistence and ability to click menu buttons in a Flash game. I saved that screenshot for an occasion such as this.

 

I am no longer the world champion. My day has come and gone. But at least I know that for a very brief moment, I used to be the very best... like no one ever was...

 

 

But wait, why is your LEGO username "BackCap"?

 

Ah yes. That is another tale for another day.

 

This is former Spinner Challenge World Champion SPIRIT signing off.
