> numberofgames=1 > while numberofgames<4: > numberofgames=numberofgames+2 First off, why are you adding two? Is this a typo? You have here a counter, but it's counting up. To figure out how many games are left, just subtract the numberofgames from the total number of games that you'll be allowing - that's how many there are left. Do you know how to do that?
