    My duck's speed dropped though, and it's fully topped up. Anyone know how you get it to go faster?
    You need to find the optimum level for each bar - not have them all fully topped up.
  • Just found out why it was telling me I had illegal characters in my duck name - my surname has cocks at the end guess it didn't like it So I have had to change spelling. I know someone else on here was having same problem so hope this helps

    :rotfl::rotfl:loving the messages :D

    I've reached the shores of China. They call this the Yellow Sea but the only yellow things here are us ducks. I'd love to stay and noodle around the harbour but we Quacky Racers don't have time for sight-seeing!

    It was wild, wet-water paddling on the way here from Australia... I was chased by a komodo dragon in Indonesia and got lost in all the islands of the Philippines - your care and attention really keeps me going through the tough times. There are highlights though - like swimming right past the Sultan of Brunei who was taking a dip!

    I miss you, please come and see me now. I really need some soggy bread to fill me up, a seriously good nap, and of course, a lorra love to survive the next bit of the race.

    Take me to my duck now >

    :D
