"Dingus" redirect

How do you get "Dingus" from the acronym? "Dings" feels more plausible, than "Dingus"... --Lonegamer78 18:39, 5 March 2011 (EST)

I take it you've yet to see the episode or read the synopsis. Fowler pronounces the acronym "Dingus".--Apcog 18:40, 5 March 2011 (EST)
........I have SO got to catch up on my caffeine intake. TOTAL FAIL. :B --Lonegamer78 18:49, 5 March 2011 (EST)
Shouldn't the acronym be spelled DyNGeS or something? Like CHiPs? - Starfield 22:03, 5 March 2011 (EST)
D.N.G.S. is from the subtitles, I believe! --abates 22:32, 5 March 2011 (EST)
DYNGES makes sense to me. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 199.185.88.147 (talk • contribs).
I thought DYNGES was what Cheer detergent was supposed to get rid of. --Khajidha 13:27, 8 March 2011 (EST)

Acronym

How about DYNGES? DYnamic Nuclear GEneration System? That fits the bill. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 199.185.88.147 (talk • contribs).

The captions spell the acronym "D.N.G.S.". We don't make up stuff when we have official terms. --abates 14:28, 8 March 2011 (EST)
How do you know that the captions are right? Or what if that was the captioning firm's idea? --199.185.88.147 16:27, 8 March 2011 (EST)
The captioning firm is as official as anything else. They work for Hasbro's The Hub channel. - Starfield 17:12, 8 March 2011 (EST)
And even if there's a faint chance that the spelling in the captions doesn't match the script, that doesn't mean we should immediately switch to a spelling a random user made up. --abates 18:01, 8 March 2011 (EST)
Captioning companies work off scripts, unless there's a rush or it's a live event. It's evident in this episode when they refer to Vehicons as "Eradicons" and get the capitalization of MECH correct. —Interrobang 18:25, 8 March 2011 (EST)
