Root [CDMA] Got S-off but Revolutionary says it failed?

I apologize if this has been asked before. I've read through the forums a lot before trying to root my EVO 3D and I don't recall reading any posts with this problem so I'm asking my question in a new thread. (Mods, if this has been asked before, feel free to move my post)

My EVO 3D is HBOOT 1.40. I just ran Revolutionary and my phone's screen says Revolutionary and S-off at the top however in the command prompt after it says "rebooting into fastboot" 3 times, it says "FAILED - Go have some lemonade." Then is says "Press (almost) any key to exit" but when I do nothing happens. So what does this mean and more importantly, what do I do now? I still have my phone plugged into my computer and haven't touched anything yet because I don't know what to do. I'm especially confused because my phone does say s-off despite the command prompt saying it failed.

Someone please help! Thanks in advance.
