I just decided to use the name 'Guitar' since I didn't know if it had an actual name. Does anyone know if it has an official name? Should we leave it at 'guitar'? Should we change it to 'EL KABONG!'? --[[User:André the Accelerator|André the Accelerator]] 01:57, 9 July 2010 (UTC)

::Since his other taunt is affectionately named 'Organ Grinder' I think that 'Kabong!' or 'El Kabong' would fit better, so can we get a name change?--[[User:André the Accelerator|André the Accelerator]] 02:06, 9 July 2010 (UTC)

:::::::You don't get the reference then, the move and sound are from Quick Draw McGraw's [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Quick_Draw_McGraw_Show] alter ego "El Kabong"[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AmemBa1HAzU] which was a cartoon made from 1959-1962, it was also later a professional wrestling move[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Professional_wrestling_attacks#El_Kabong].  Regardless of what people like, that is the reference.  "El Kabong" would be the correct name for the move. --[[User:Xeroproject|Xeroproject]] 18:58, 9 July 2010 (UTC)

:NOOOOOOO... I'd even prefer "Kabong!" (It sounds so weird!) over "Twang!" (It's even weirder!)[[User:The Neotank|The Neotank]] 12:15, 9 July 2010 (UTC)

:::Frankly, I'd just go with "Guitar." It's boring and plain, but it works. [[User:The Neotank|The Neotank]] 12:21, 9 July 2010 (UTC)

:::::::::Against white people, yes. Mind you, white people don't exactly have the best track record for preaching racial tolerance. Anyway, I think Kabong! is better. I mean, the homage is there and everything! [[User:Noizeblaze|Noizeblaze]] 13:15, 9 July 2010 (UTC)
 
::::::::::Honky Tonk is a type of bar in the South USA. No racial slur there. Kabong sounds like some weird drug thing.

::::::::::: I say keep it as Kabong! It makes perfect sense if you get the reference.--[[User:EvilDeadFan|EDF]] 19:33, 9 July 2010 (UTC)
 
'''THE CASE FOR KEEPING IT AS KABONG'''--- This is why it needs to be Kabong! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AmemBa1HAzU  ... I'm willing to bet the devs were at least inspired by this. - [[User:Goose511th|Goose511th]] 21:18, 9 July 2010 (UTC)
 
:::::::::::: Good to see my choice is still holding strong.--[[User:André the Accelerator|André the Accelerator]] 05:53, 10 July 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
I'm all for "EL KABONG." {{unsigned|Radiant Bonk}}
 
:"El Kabong" is the same name of what it's referencing, and it might be copyrighted by Hanna-Barbera (most likely not, but you never know). Just '''Kabong''' is close enough so that any simpleton will get the connection. Most people seem to be prefering that over "Guitar" but I'm okay with either one.--[[User:Piemanmoo|Piemanmoo]] 08:20, 10 July 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
::How about "Dischord"? No racial slur and no strange reference that a few people get and others don't. And it's simple enough. -- [[User:Smashman|Smashman...]] <sub>([[User_talk:Smashman|t]] • <span class="plainlinks">[http://www.steamcommunity.com/id/smashman2004 s])</span></sub> 11:16, 10 July 2010 (UTC)
