Never mind, I managed to solve it myself after digging around a bit more. One thing that really helped me solving the problem is console loggin every variable I had to conditionally check. I changed the if statement in the getResults function to check if randAns == ranq.answer(because before that I was comparing a string to an object :D).

good job with debugging!
