7,669 PointsNot updated profiles
Nothing to do with the code which is working fine but why in my case the profiles are not updated into the node prompt. I actually have more points in my treehouse account.

For account issues, contact the staff directly as described on the Support page.

I actually wonder if this is a code question. I was running into the same problem. No matter the username I passed as an argument, I always received "(username) has 90 total badge(s) and 41 points in JavaScript"
This was simply an oversight as I was not interpolating username in the https GET request.
const request = https.get(`https://teamtreehouse.com/username.json`, response => ...
I should have interpolated username and in so doing the GET request should read:
const request = https.get(`https://teamtreehouse.com/${username}`, response => ...
After updating this, I received the correct badge count and JavaScript points.
Just a heads up for anyone running into the same issue.
