The nouning of "fail".

Has "fail" become a noun in your area?

He received a fail.

There's also the modern phrase "epic fail". I guess "fail" is a noun here.

I think "epic fail" is more of a specialized term used by video game players and people of that generation. For the most part, though, isn't the word "failure" still acceptable (i.e. epic failure)?

What about the verbing of "noun"?

@Kitsch: Yes, "(epic) fail" and "(epic) win" are used in distinctive ways in netspeak and gamerspeak. For example, you can use "Fail!" as an interjection to announce a fail.
