title: Print the correct event, depending on user's input
body: <p>I am working on a text-based adventure game. Essentially I want to return the correct event depending on what the user types. Right now, it gives the same event no matter what the user types (EVENT_DRAGON is returned every time). The majority of the game, the user had choices between 1, 2, or 3. Which works perfectly fine and well, but I wanted to switch it up and ask the user for a word input. This hasn't been working correctly.. Clarification on why it would work with numbered input but not word input would be appreciated. Thank you.</p>
  
  <pre><code>def main():
      import sys
  
  
      def run_event(event):
          text, choices = event
          text_lines = text.split("\n")
          for line in text_lines:
              print('' + line)
              print("")
          choices = choices.strip("\n")
          choices_lines = choices.split("\n")
          for num, line in enumerate(choices_lines):
              print('' + line)
              print("")
  
      print ("")
      print ("You have found yourself stuck within a dark room, inside this room are 5 doors.. Your only way out..")
      print ("")
      print ("Do you want to enter door 1,2,3,4, or 5?")
      print ("")
  
  
      EVENT_DOOR3 = ("""
      A dragon awaits you
      ""","""
      'Welcome' remarks the dragon. 'Do you wish to escape?""")
  
      EVENT_DRAGON = ("""
      'Good choice' says the dragon. Where would you like to escape to?
      ""","""
      1. Just get me out of here!
      2. Where should I escape to?
      """)
  
      EVENT_DRAGON2 = ("""

      ""","""
      Test..
      """)
  
      door = input("&gt; ")
      if door == "3":
        run_event(EVENT_DOOR3)
        dragon = input()
        if dragon in ['yes','Yes']:
          run_event(EVENT_DRAGON)
