| Happy me! 1st to comment!
I had to reread it but then a grin spread over my face as I got it! Nice teaser. It made me think but then gave me the ego boost of "getting it"
Thanks. good Job!  |

| I like rebuses, but this one seemed a little contrived...just my opinion! |

| Most Interesting teaser, comments and statement, "Failure is not an option," does it mean that failure had been an option at one time, but wasn't now??? I've always wonder what someone means when they use this. Fine teaser.  |

| It was a good Rebus. I am really bad at figuring them out so I didn't get it. I enjoyed trying though. Great job!!!  |

| Very easy, but then I would say that. Appollo 13 is my favourite true-life film and these were the words famously used by Gene Kranz, flight director when facing the challenge of getting the astronauts home alive after disaster struck. |

| Excellent - I was thinking 'degrees of sucess' having read it too fast the fisrt time, but then paid attention  |

| i am new to braingle and words like rebus will be familiar as i progress - but today it was a new word for me .... looking fwd to more ... :  |

| Could not draw, push or tie also be an option since all 4 words can be used as it relates to a sporting competion . |

Maybe it would be better if failure were not mentioned directly |

| I'm no good at "seeing" rebuses, but this one was indeed superb! |

| I enjoyed this rebus.
To clear up confusion, perhaps the rebus could have read:
A) Success
B) Victory
C) Triumph
D) Accomplishment
-- Failure
E) Achievement
Although, I didn't find it confusing.

| Sorry, Scallio, I don't think that "failure" should even be listed. This rebus was for me, just like a few others described. I got it, and a smile spread over my face! THANX!  |

| Well I am so dense this morning. I said failure? Failure isn't an option. I laughed when I clicked on the answer. Good job. |

Thank you for this teaser  |

| This one jumped right out for me (I use this phrase from time to time), but I agree with OCH. When you pick the phrase apart, it is a little silly. "Retreat is not an option" is another common one (and makes a little more sense) Thanks for submitting!  |

| I relized it after wards. I wasn't thinking clearly I guess, I had to re-read. First time I just rushed through. One of the thoughts I had was that Victory, because then there is the victor and somone else kinda...
(Sorry if that makes no sense, my minds a jumble )
Great teaser though!!!  |

| Failure never has been an option with this guy, either! You will either figure the teaser out or die trying to understand the reasonning behind it! Fantastic teaser! Keep them coming!  |

| I got it, and I thought it was really easy! I love this rebus, very fun! I'm still figuring out how to post a Rebus I came up with, because my Rebus involves an image. I will figure things out, but if anyone can help me as to how I load an image, then please contact me. I think I need to use Photobucket.
Thanks! |

| Good one. I didn't get it, but when I read the answer I could have slapped my forehead. Very dull today.  |

| Nice! I did feel it was a little on the easy side, since the word failure was given in the instructions, but .... I'm no good at rebus- uh oh! rebuses? rebi? -rebus teasers, so I didn't mind getting a break on this one. But maybe the "instruction" line would've been better in the Hint instead... |
