By carefully translating all the statements from the Power supporters in this thread into English (it took a long time, there were a lot of LOL/ROFL/LMAO's), I think I've finally worked out how the 'Creed' must read down at the Power:
"You have to be in 'it' to win 'it'. Unless you're not 100% sure you can win 'it', in which case, don't go in 'it'.
If we aren't in 'it', we're still trying to win 'it', but not the current 'it', rather, the 'it' coming up next, or even the 'it' after that.
If we still aren't in 'it' even after that, remember that winning 'it' isn't the only thing that counts, as long as nobody else wins 'it' whilst we're not in 'it', and all previous winners of 'it' don't count because we weren't in 'it' at the time.
If we're not in 'it' and someone else wins 'it', 'it' doesn't count because we weren't in 'it'. If we were accidentally in 'it', 'it' still doesn't count because we probably didn't mean to be in 'it', 'it' was just a dream or something.
So never forget that we exist to win 'it'. Just not all the time, or when it's too hard, or when someone else did, or was too good, or before we existed, or when we actually nearly got all the way but didn't. All of those times don't count."
Have to say, it's a bit hard to follow but I think I get the gist. Stirring stuff.
