I think that you'd be pleasantly surprised though when you do succeed ;)
No, you have succeeded in what you wanted to do (which in this case is to fail)
Depends on context.
You have succeeded in what your target was.
But you have failed the overall outcome.
e.g. If you want a U in Science... you get the U, you have succeeded your own target. You have however overall failed the subject. >:]

It's a neverending circle of both, you won't find a straight succeed or fail answer.
They succeed at failing but as they have succeeded then that means they fail but because they fail then that means they succeed but because they succeed it goes back to fail and again and then loops over for aslong as you can go on for.
Anyone who is trying to figure it out are dumb
But if I had to choose one then I'd say fail because failing is easier than succeeding
