2008 Saint Petersburg Mathematical Olympiad, 2

In a kingdom, there are roads open between some cities with lanes both ways, in such a way, that you can come from one city to another using those roads. The roads are toll, and the price for taking each road is distinct. A minister made a list of all routes that go through each city exactly once. The king marked the most expensive road in each of the routes and said to close all the roads that he marked at least once. After that, it became impossible to go from city $A$ to city $B$, from city $B$ to city $C$, and from city $C$ to city $A$. Prove that the kings order was followed incorrectly.

In a box there are $31$, $41$ and $59$ stones coloured, respectively, red, green and blue. Three players, having t-shirts of these three colours, play the following game. They sequentially make one of two moves: (I) either remove three stones of one colour from the box, (II) or replace two stones of different colours by two stones of the third colour. The game ends when all the stones in the box have the same colour and the winner is the player whose t-shirt has this colour. Assuming that the players play optimally, is it possible to decide whether the game ends and who will win, depending on who the starting player is?
