Access collider custom script's variables

Hi!

I have that piece of code attachedd to my player:

 void OnControllerColliderHit(ControllerColliderHit hit) {
         
         
         if ((hit.gameObject.tag == "SurpriseBlock") && (hit.moveDirection == new Vector3(0.0F,1.0F,0.0F) )) {
             ColliderManager collider = hit.gameObject.GetComponent("ColliderManager") as ColliderManager;
             
             if(ColliderManager.wasTriggered >= ColliderManager.maxTrigger)
             {    
                 return;
             }
         }
 }

And this script attached to an object (a cube):

 public int maxTrigger = 0;
 public int wasTriggered = 0;

The point of that is to make sure the event (contained in the player's script) is triggered only once. (or twice depending on what's the object)

The compiler return the following error:

 Assets/Scripts/Player/PlayerCollider.cs(66,30): error CS1061: Type `UnityEngine.GameObject' does not contain a definition for `wasTriggered' and no extension method `wasTriggered' of type `UnityEngine.GameObject' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

I've read http://docs.unity3d.com/Documentation/ScriptReference/GameObject.GetComponent.html but with no success.

Any idea why it's not working?

Thanks a lot ;)
