Dodgeball Game (Charlie never wins)

nbarbop24 (5)
I made this dodgeball game and it keeps printing out that Charlie never wins. It prints "Charlie won 0% of the time". He is supposed to get around 22% wins and I can't figure out why he keeps getting 0%.

Move the if on line 99 outside of the while loop (after line 111).
