Oh my yes.

Craftastrophe wins by virtue of the more clever name. While I understand the appeal of FAIL, I think it has, on the whole, spread too far as a meme. Yesterday we got a bug report that had nothing but a URL (to a page that, as best we can tell, works perfectly (and by best I mean 57 browser/OS combinations (triple parenthesis!!!))) and FAIL.

Thanks. We'll be sure to fix that page, which has failed you, and, in turn, us.

I prefer CraftFail, if only because it seems like people submit their own disasters. The original link feels kind of mean-spirited to me. Maybe I'm just an oversensitive crafter (with a 3/4 finished baby blanket for a baby that's coming any day now. Doh.)
