I've checked over my code multiple times and I can't find anything wrong. I've checked other questions about this issue and tried all those solutions, but nothing seems to work.

Treehouse Project ReviewerHi there MightyIronElf 15 👋
The issue is an issue with the way the conditional statements are written out currently. We need to close of the condition with a closing ) and then wrap our logic inside of curly braces { } just as you have in your other conditional block below.
if ( oneAnswer.toUpperCase() === " Robert Downey Jr ") {
correctAnswers += 1;
}
After doing so, you'll likely see this error in the browser's console.
Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token '{' (at quiz.js:73:29)
This is because there is a condition attached to the else statement on line 73. Only if and else if statements are allowed to be assigned conditions, the else is a final "if everything else didn't work out, do this" statement and it should be removed like so.
} else {
playerRank = "BUMMER! Better luck next time! Try to research some more:)";
}
I hope this makes sense!
