The competition to name the mystic guardian of the Steel Mill drew in a huge amount of suggestions, great names one after another. K.K. and the Millworkers were facing a difficult but pleasant challenge while choosing the most suitable name for the creature.

But finally, after a hard brainstorming session the Mill Team reached an unanimous decision. After repeadetly going through the long list of excellent suggestions, one particular name had been stuck to everybody's minds. Hampus Martinsson's simple, yet straightforward and catchy idea to call the monster "Mill Bill" caught everybody's fancy. And so the strange creature that had been lurking amongst the shadows of the site from it's opening day, was baptized in the blazing glow and burning heat of the Steel Mill's gargantuan Metal furnaces!


As promised, an excellent Mill Bill t-shirt will be mailed over to the lucky winner Hampus Martinsson posthaste. The shirt is a one of a kind, hand painted creation by the creator of Mill Bill's visual form, Kari Kuusinen. And is signed by K.K. Downing with special dedication to the winner.

Everybody at the Steel Mill wishes to once more congratulate Hampus Martinsson and also express our thanks to EVERYBODY who participated in the naming competition. We will be organizing more contests in the future, so keep your eyes peeled for any new chances to contribute to the evolution of the Steel Mill... and for some other cool prizes as well, of course.
