Similar to chainfail / chain-fail / chain fail, "Epic Chain-Fail", is a series of fails, usually (in strictest sense of epic chain fail, not mere hyperbole) deal-breaking fails, not just minor fails, not only in a experiential or temporal successsion, but also in another dimension, or exponentiating too.
fail < chain fail < epic chain fail
fail < epic fail < epic chain fail
either chain fail, or epic fail could be worse, depending on the specifics. there is no worse than epic chain fail known. there is no "chain epic fail", as the "epic" in "epic chain fail" already implies fail os of epic proportion, either (strictly) in each fail's own right, or as the cumulative result.
