Hi Coco

I'm sorry you've got this worry. Don't beat yourself up thinking that you've done something wrong. More often than not there's no logic to any of this, and nothing you have / haven't done would have made a difference.

When was your beta ? Are you waiting to test again, or was it a while ago ?
