Talk:Megadramon

Etymology
. . . *ahem*

So ah... is there some reason it's not acceptable to say that Megadramon is based off of a megabyte, when he so obviously is? Same for Gigadramon.

Was saying that not literal enough for you guys? Was that the problem? Maybe if his name was 'megabytemon' that'd fly, I guess. What gives, Kryten? Blademaster Banryu (talk) 19:30, May 12, 2013 (UTC)
 * What makes you think it's "obvious"? is a generic suffix in the metric system, and could refer to anything from a megapixel to a "megagram". Lots of Digimon have these prefixes and we can't be sure if this actually refers to megabytes. The only one we have allowed to say it's from the binary system is Examon, whose profile  explicitly  mentions its extraordinary data size.  19:53, May 12, 2013 (UTC)
 * I guess I thought it was obvious by virtue of common sense. Unfortunately it seems like my snarky remark about taking things so literally was more accurate than I thought.


 * It's a simple reason, but requires lengthy explanation, and I don't really have the liberty to waste my time explaining if it isn't obvious. Keep the overliteralized explanation of his namesake as it is, then.
