Sorry Chaselance. I can understand your frustration, but don't forget the whole point of the game is they are hard to get. I do sometimes wonder is this good for our blood pressure?
I suppose the approach to take is to be elated when we get what we are after and consider the fails as business as usual.
I used to breed budgies in real life - trying for the rare colour birds was even more frustrating than this. No speeding possible!
