Yeah it kind of sucks, when you know your code is doing the right thing, but the challenge asks you to use specific names. So make sure to carefully read the instructions and sometimes it really helps to take a short 5 minute break. This is especially true, when the code gets more complicated. It's common to get caught up with your thoughts and you are not seeing obvious/easy mistakes any more.
