OK! You are absolutely correct. What was happening is that I was testing 
out to make sure that the regular downcase and upcase conditions were 
still working before I tried the GOODBYE again.

So, now I've solved the reason as to why it wasn't breaking, but I'm 
back to the drawing board about how to get it to quit after three 
GOODBYEs no matter what else has already been said beforehand.
