There are$n$ balls numbered $1,2,\cdots,n$, respectively. They are painted with $4$ colours, red, yellow, blue, and green, according to the following rules: First, randomly line them on a circle. Then let any three clockwise consecutive balls numbered $i, j, k$, in order. 1) If $i>j>k$, then the ball $j$ is painted in red; 2) If $i<j<k$, then the ball $j$ is painted in yellow; 3) If $i<j, k<j$, then the ball $j$ is painted in blue; 4) If $i>j, k>j$, then the ball $j$ is painted in green. And now each permutation of the balls determine a painting method. We call two painting methods distinct, if there exists a ball, which is painted with two different colours in that two methods. Find out the number of all distinct painting methods.

Kelvin and Quinn are collecting trading cards; there are $6$ distinct cards that could appear in a pack. Each pack contains exactly one card, and each card is equally likely. Kelvin buys packs until he has at least one copy of every card, and then he stops buying packs. If Quinn is missing exactly one card, the probability that Kelvin has at least two copies of the card Quinn is missing is expressible as $\tfrac{m}{n}$ for coprime positive integers $m$ and $n$. Determine $m+n$.
