the millennial generation is the one that came up with the phrase "epic fail"




shirley the irony is apparent

Talk about fake news. The men here remember epic fail as a bit older than that. More like early aughts.

You faggots were still in high school and your trust fund wasn't even made yet.

Googlez sayz………………

The term “epic fail” actually comes from the original 1974 printing of the Dungeons and Dragons handbook. If a player rolled a one on a twenty sided die, regardless of his modifiers, the check was considered such a failure that permanent damage was done to the character, equipment, mind, etc. The term given to such a fail, in print, in the handbook was “epic fail.” As gamers became more and more main stream in the late 90’s and early 00’s the origin of the term was lost in the throngs of mmo’s rpg’s and other suck computer and internet gaming facilities.

I actually knew that. :old:

[Speaker to Animals]

It was critical fail.

[SuburbanFarmer]

It was critical fail.

Only in later versions, n00b.

[The Conservative]

It was critical fail.

It was known later as a critical fail because later rules only made it so that the fail would be on what the character was doing at the time and not so much a potential fuckery of mind, body, etc unless you were rolling against a mind flayer.

Wrong.

The reason they called it critical fail and not epic fail was because those old fortran programs in the 50's weren't programmed to understand teenage colloquialisms. If you type in pwned or barrel ass or trill or whatever in Python it will short out your computer too. That's what the print statements are for. I guess DnD players didn't know about that trick.

I used to be a fairly serious player. The term critical failure was more culturally added in the game before second edition. In, in fact, still have the very first edition DM and player's guides. I just looked through them and neither mentioned this rule.

Critical failure was originally a house rule similar to the god call roll.

I never heard the term epic failure to describe a critical failure in that game.

The first I remember the use of "epic fail" was early 2000s Internet culture.

Cute, but wrong. Since I know those languages.

The only time that would ever work is if you wrote something up and called it that, then ran it. And that is if you told the computer to do it, and bypassed all security features.

False. Bears, beets, battle star galactica.
