Question on 2-player rules

Tried this game for the first time tonight, 2-player. Seems pretty simple.

When playing 2 players, we each have 2 button cards either green/yellow or red/blue. It changes per round. However, when playing the game, we were constantly placing buttons on 3 or more green/yellow spots but then only being allowed to place a single star after Opting Out. The way I understood the rules, if I opt out, that's one star. If I place on 3 of the same colour, that's another star. And there is a bonus star for placing at least 3 on our colours. So shouldn't we have gotten at least a second star? It happened once, but we couldn't see what was different about that round compared to earlier rounds where we had placed up to 5 buttons on our own colours, yet still only received 1 star after opting out.

Thanks!

Though u have 2 colors in 2p game, it's still counted SEPERATELY.
So 3 blue buttons give u 3 stars, yet 2 red buttons give u nothing.

Thanks. There’s a lot of room for clarification on this in the manual. So if I get it right…

Let’s say I have blue/red cards in 2P, and opt out, I get one star plus:
- If I have only 1 blue and 2 red buttons this round, no bonus (despite having 3 buttons overall of my two colours)
- If I have only 3 or more of either blue or red, I get two bonus stars (1 for 3+ in a colour, plus 1 for that colour being one of my colour cards).

But then…
What if I have 3 red AND 3 blue buttons? Is it possible to get a bonus star for each? Ie score 4 stars in one round?

No, u get 5(1+2+2) stars. Same as if u get 6red and 0-2 blue.
