18,813 PointsActually I fixed it, I compared both mine and nick's code in a difference checker and changed some flawed values I had, yet I can't find excatly what was the mistake, I'll add both texts before the difference, if someone would be willing to take the time and look for the appropriate change, I'll try to figure it on my own too:
My code:
