Failed to die and failed to win became phrases my main HackMaster group used often.

Failed to die came from those savings throws against death or where failure would cause death. It was a riff off 'failed to live.'

Failed to win was probably a riff off 'for the win,' indicating that someone had not succeeded.

Murderhobo is often a synonym used for player characters. I think I picked the term up at RPG.net and in one game the players said, 'we're organized murderhoboes. We have a party charter. . .'
