    Clubamite -> Dynamite -> Explosions -> Terrorists? I dunno xD. It's another one of those stupid dub changes (and anyone who linked it up like I did is silly too xD).

    "Clubsplosion" sounds like something that would happen in Don George's pants.

    But Clubsplosion gets there in Clubsplosion -> Explosions -> Terrorists anyway. It's just TCPi going "sorry for the lack of bad puns in titles for most of the past season. Here's a horrific one to make up for it."

    I also expected they would do this since "Donamite" would probably be referenced to bombs and dynamite, which are probably against the FCC rules.

    I'm pretty sure this is less to do with censorship and more to do with how they dubbed "Don Battle" as "Club Battle" earlier, guys.

    Yeesh. As far as portmanteaus go, 'Clubsplosion' is just flat out bad. I mean, apart from the fact that combining 'Club' and 'Explosion' just looks clumsy as all get out any way, if you try saying it out loud, and it doesn't roll off the tongue particularly well.

    How about "Clubboom!" instead?

    Somewhat better, but it sounds like something baby Don George would do in his pants.

    Yeah, 'Clubboom' would've worked fine, since it carries the same meaning and the words fit together seamlessly.
    ...
    And then Eitarou ruins it all, as thoughts of Baby Don sitting in his own Trubbish tar the word forever.

    But...there's a Simisage in this tournament. And it uses 'Seed Bomb'.

    Aside from the other reasons mentioned, I'm sure they also didn't use "Donamite" because they didn't want to make an unintentional reference to Jimmie Walker.
