Consider a polyhedron with at least five faces such that exactly three edges emerge from each of its vertices. Two players play the following game: Each, in turn, signs his or her name on a previously unsigned face. The winner is the player who first succeeds in signing three faces that share a common vertex. Show that the player who signs first will always win by playing as well as possible.

2023 Belarusian National Olympiad, 9.8

On the faces of a cube several positive integer numbers are written. On every edge the sum of the numbers of it's two faces is written, and in every vertex the sum of numbers on the three faces that have this vertex. It turned out that all the written numbers are different. Find the smallest possible amount of the sum of all written numbers.

A net for a polyhedron is cut along an edge to give two [b]pieces[/b]. For example, we may cut a cube net along the red edge to form two pieces as shown. [asy] size(5.5cm); draw((1,0)--(1,4)--(2,4)--(2,0)--cycle); draw((1,1)--(2,1)); draw((1,2)--(2,2)); draw((1,3)--(2,3)); draw((0,1)--(3,1)--(3,2)--(0,2)--cycle); draw((2,1)--(2,2),red+linewidth(1.5)); draw((3.5,2)--(5,2)); filldraw((4.25,2.2)--(5,2)--(4.25,1.8)--cycle,black); draw((6,1.5)--(10,1.5)--(10,2.5)--(6,2.5)--cycle); draw((7,1.5)--(7,2.5)); draw((8,1.5)--(8,2.5)); draw((9,1.5)--(9,2.5)); draw((7,2.5)--(7,3.5)--(8,3.5)--(8,2.5)--cycle); draw((11,1.5)--(11,2.5)--(12,2.5)--(12,1.5)--cycle); [/asy] Are there two distinct polyhedra for which this process may result in the same two pairs of pieces? If you think the answer is no, prove that no pair of polyhedra can result in the same two pairs of pieces. If you think the answer is yes, provide an example; a clear example will suffice as a proof.
