Hi! Sorry to bother you again..

I have this TITLE: One By One ( Bonus Usa )  
I want this TITLE: One By One

My action:

Action GUESS VALUES:  
%title%  
%title% ( Bonus %dummy% )

Only returns what i already had in the start..

Why my action doesnt work as i thought?  
Where did i mess up?

I want to erase from the title this: (%anything%Bonus%anything%) with %anything% meanning spaces, letters, symbols...  
If this is hard to do or too complex, just tell me why/where my action is wrong!

And once again  
Thank you!!!!!!!  
Filipe Cruz
