"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 (talkcontribs).
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 (talkcontribs).

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)
