-Syu doesnt work, but -Syyu does?

Hi.... for some reason, "pacman -Syu" doesnt work anymore..... every time I try to use it it says "there is nothing to do". So I have to run "pacman -Syyu" instead..... why?

[root@HPMachine danny]# pacman -Syu
:: Synchronising package databases...
 core is up to date
 extra is up to date
 community is up to date
:: Starting full system upgrade...
 there is nothing to do
[root@HPMachine danny]# pacman -Syyu
:: Synchronising package databases...
 core                                                             106.2 KiB   924K/s 00:00 [#####################################################] 100%
