Hello,
I see saves dictionary items are being accessed in different ways.
In the if statement it's saves.get("name"). In the block inside if statement it's saves["name"].
Are both the same thing?

will return None
if the key is not found. If using direct assess of object[key_name]
, an KeyError is raised if the key is not found.
Post back if you need more help. Good luck!!
