608 PointsWhile on task 2, the screen says "oops, task 1 is not passing" and will not allow me to move on to the next task. Help?
I passed the 1st task. Then while working on task 2, my screen says "oops, it looks like Task 1 is not passing". However, it seems that regardless of whether it is "passing" it or not, the challenge is not giving me the option to move on to the next task. Is this an issue in the system? Please help.

231,275 PointsYou'll get that message about task 1 not passing anytime you introduce a syntax error in the code. In this case, it's due to referencing "item.key" since nothing by the name of "item" has been declared in this program.
But there's no need to add an extra test anyway, for task 2 you just need to modify the code that was previously adding a life and make it subtract one instead.
