Can anyone tell me why this doesn't return anything? (Simple C)

   else if (opt == 2) {
                skipCounter++;
                if (skipCounter == nPlayers) {
                    return -1;
                }
                arrSkip[i-1] = i;
            }

So when someone press opt 2 and if everyone presses opt 2 the function is supposed to return -1, but it doesn't and just stops. Think there's a prob with the if statement. Everyone knows why?
