fail?
Ooh, a sarcasm detector. Oh, that's a *real* useful invention. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/technolog...t-sarcasm.html
Not crafting then selling?
I believe that word would be: Ouch...

I've been rich, and I've been poor. Rich is definitely better.
Light is faster than sound - that's why some people look smart until they speak.
For every seller who leaves the market dirty stinkin' rich,
there's a buyer who leaves the market dirty stinkin' IOed. - Obitus.
There should be. Nothing clever's coming to me.
(I did that last week. Five rolls, total about half a million raw or "salvage cost plus a million" crafted. That's what I get for playing a 50.)

The actual term in the market is "Stop-Loss" I believe...
I'm not the uber creative type, so I will let you all give it a whirl.

Rolled.
As in, "I got rolled on this random roll". Used for any type of random roll.
I've had some not-very-good rolls in my "30 merits" thread, but none that I didn't at least make a little money on.
my lil RWZ Challenge vid
I've only had one that didn't make the 20m back. But it was on a level 32 character so I wasn't really expecting to. I was hoping to get at least one recipe to slot for myself, but didn't event get that.
On the other hand, my next roll netted me a Kin Combat I sold for 121m, so why complain about 1 specific roll?

I can be found, outside of paragon city here.
Thank you everyone at Paragon and on Virtue. When the lights go out in November, you'll find me on Razor Bunny.
Actually, there are several terms for that situation.
However, we're not permitted to use them on these boards. 
Paragon City Search And Rescue
The Mentor Project
The word for that is the forbidden word: "Oops."
"Working as Intended"
We don' need no stinkin' signatures!
Rick Rolled. For when you get so little from a full set of rolls that it seems like the RNG is laughing at you. With cheesy music.
Random Number Generator hits you with their Rick Roll for 19,950,000 inf!
The humanity... 
I think the phrase should be
I rolled a Smurphy
converting 50 merits and 20 million inf into an A-Merit, rolling, and not making that 20 million back?
