I get caught at this over and over, the code works and then I get an "oh no!" error message saying you've been notified.

I can move on, but I've been getting this error since Friday.

TooBigException.cs 
namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges
{
    class TooBigException : System.Exception
    {
        TooBigException(string message) : base(message)
        {

        }
    }
}

Apparently, leaving off the public access specifier from the constructor causes trouble for the validator.

You might want to report this as a bug to Support.
