:Yeah, that's reaching, IMHO. The act of the energon being released from the Cube is "Absorbtion", both with the score in question ''and'' later when Bee is dealing with the spiked Cube. Also even allowing for the announcer drone running Cybertronian OCR, "discharge scores" would be horrific from a grammatical standpoint. We don't ''say'' "point scores", we say "X scored" or "X scored a point". - [[User:TBR|TBR]] ([[User talk:TBR|talk]]) 17:11, 15 October 2018 (EDT) | :Yeah, that's reaching, IMHO.

Revision as of 21:12, 15 October 2018
Has someone confirmed this is the character's name? I took "discharge scores for the Polyhex team" as equivalent to "point scores for the Polyhex team," that it was referencing the discharge of energon. --KilMichaelMcC (talk) 08:49, 15 October 2018 (EDT)
