did you post it on your website cause you do to get points if you did well you need to wait for the admins to check it which may take a couple days

We don't check other 2. We have a script to do it for us, so make sure you format it exactly how the challenge says. Otherwise, it won't work.
Why so serious? |

Maybe it doesn't work because this guy has a space in his username? Does it read the whole file or just "hellbound hackers" and the next word?

Yea, that's what I was thinking the problem might be. I can't really do too much about it, though because I don't have the privs for that kind of thing.

[EDIT] Shouldn't it be [yourusername].txt?

I don't know how I can possibly make this any more clear. We don't check it. We have it checked automatically by a program. If it's not exactly what the program is looking for, then it's not gonna work. If you're not willing to change it to see what's wrong, then I really don't care.
And COM has already pointed out what was wrong. It needs to be your username.txt, not HBH.txt.
