yeah its not the

case, it's not required at the end of the case statement (although it isn't a bad habit). it IS required for multiple case statements. And as far as the
fi on line 62, I was just reviewing my code, and it was one of those things that I just kept looking over and I noticed. I got on here to post this as resolved. The
fi was a mistake due to the copy and pasting from the other scenario of the game. I know copy/paste causes a lot of errors and I browsed it for misplaced quotation marks and various other errors, but I forgot that the whole statement that I copied was part of an if statement from the other scenario. That
fi on line 62 should not have been there, there only should have been the one on line 60 but thank you so much for your prompt response to this. I've just began learning scripting and bash as a whole about 4 days ago, so I'm sure this is going to be a go-to source for help in this text based game. I'm just trying to find a way to spice it up and once I do I'm sure I'll have way more complicate code than [ICODE]case[/ICODE[,
while/do and nested
if statements!!

execute
EXECUTE(7) PostgreSQL 9.2.7 Documentation EXECUTE(7)
NAME
EXECUTE - execute a prepared statement
SYNOPSIS
EXECUTE name [ ( parameter [, ...] ) ]
DESCRIPTION
EXECUTE is used to execute a previously prepared statement. Since prepared statements only exist for the duration of a session, the
prepared statement must have been created by a PREPARE statement executed earlier in the current session.
If the PREPARE statement that created the statement specified some parameters, a compatible set of parameters must be passed to the EXECUTE
statement, or else an error is raised. Note that (unlike functions) prepared statements are not overloaded based on the type or number of
their parameters; the name of a prepared statement must be unique within a database session.
For more information on the creation and usage of prepared statements, see PREPARE(7).
PARAMETERS
name
The name of the prepared statement to execute.
parameter
The actual value of a parameter to the prepared statement. This must be an expression yielding a value that is compatible with the data
type of this parameter, as was determined when the prepared statement was created.
OUTPUTS
The command tag returned by EXECUTE is that of the prepared statement, and not EXECUTE.
EXAMPLES
Examples are given in the EXAMPLES section of the PREPARE(7) documentation.
COMPATIBILITY
The SQL standard includes an EXECUTE statement, but it is only for use in embedded SQL. This version of the EXECUTE statement also uses a
somewhat different syntax.
