Let $G$ be a finite abelian group. There is a magic box $T$. At any point, an element of $G$ may be added to the box and all elements belonging to the subgroup (of $G$) generated by the elements currently inside $T$ are moved from outside $T$ to inside (unless they are already inside). Initially $ T$ contains only the group identity, $1_G$. Alice and Bob take turns moving an element from outside $T$ to inside it. Alice moves first. Whoever cannot make a move loses. Find all $G$ for which Bob has a winning strategy.

Define $f(x, y)$ to be $\frac{|x|}{|y|}$ if that value is a positive integer, $\frac{|y|}{|x|}$ if that value is a positive integer, and zero otherwise. We say that a sequence of integers $\ell_1$ through $\ell_n$ is [i]good [/i] if $f(\ell_i, \ell_{i+1})$ is nonzero for all $i$ where $1 \le i \le n - 1$, and the score of the sequence is $\sum^{n-1}_{i=1} f(\ell_i, \ell_{i+1})$
