Hello everyone!

I have been following this board for months now.. and now I have a real question I have not been able to locate an answer to.
Now that the block reward for BTC has dropped to 25, I am looking at some of the alt chains.. specifically PPC and TRC.

Why you ask?  I have a couple BFL Labs singles that can only hash on SHA256 -- so this leaves me with three choices -- as listed above.
The question I have surrounds the alt chains PPC and TRC.

I see a lot of mixed signals when it comes to these chains. 
A lot of people want see them succeed, and others call the chains an epic fail.

Now while I can find reasons why some want the chains to succeed, I cannot find a reason as to why some call them epic fails.
Can anyone explain (outside of the obvious reasons) why either of these chains would be considered an "epic fail" so early in the game?

Obvious reasons being lack of documentation on PPC (I can read the code if needed), and slow development on TRC.
Thank you!
