Hacked!

var userName = id.toUpperCase() + "3" + lastName.;

passed for me!! even though I never called # or uppercase()

var userName = id.toUpperCase() + "#" + lastName.toUpperCase(); was suppossed to be the right answer

app.js 
var id = "23188xtr";
var lastName = "Smith";

var userName = id.toUpperCase() + "#" + lastName.toUpperCase();
