I can't pass this, please see my code.

I try to pass this, I run it smoothly. I'm not sure what was the problem.

public class Main {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Prompter prompter = new Prompter();
        String story = "Thanks __name__ for helping me out.  You are really a __adjective__ __noun__ and I owe you a __noun__.";
        Template tmpl = new Template(story);
        prompter.run(tmpl);

#  This is essentially what I am testing 
1.  The user is prompted for a new string template (the one with the double underscores in it).

  a. The prompter class has a new method that prompts for the story template, and that method is called.

2.  The user is then prompted for each word that has been double underscored.

   a. The answer is checked to see if it is contained in the censored words.
      User is continually prompted until they enter a valid word

3.  The user is presented with the completed story

The code is supposed to prompt for a story, as opposed to having one already supplied. To pass the task, you'll need to ask the user to input their own story. If you have trouble figuring out how to do that, let me know.

I changed the code and tested it.But, I still can't pass this. The result is ok for me, I don't sure what is the problem.

What does the error say when it says it doesn't pass?
