For positive integers $t,a,b,$a $(t,a,b)$-[i]game[/i] is a two player game defined by the following rules. Initially, the number $t$ is written on a blackboard. At his first move, the 1st player replaces $t$ with either $t-a$ or $t-b$. Then, the 2nd player subtracts either $a$ or $b$ from this number, and writes the result on the blackboard, erasing the old number. After this, the first player once again erases either $a$ or $b$ from the number written on the blackboard, and so on. The player who first reaches a negative number loses the game. Prove that there exist infinitely many values of $t$ for which the first player has a winning strategy for all pairs $(a,b)$ with $a+b=2005$.

Peeter, Juri, Kati and Mari are standing at the entrance of a dark tunnel. They have one torch and none of them dares to be in the tunnel without it, but the tunnel is so narrow that at most two people can move together. It takes $1$ minute for Peeter, $2$ minutes for Juri, $5$ for Kati and $10$ for Mari to pass the tunnel. Find the minimum time in which they can all pass through the tunnel.

The diagonals of convex quadrilateral $ABCD$ intersect at point $E$. Triangles $ABE$ and $CED$ have a common excircle $\Omega$, tangent to segments $AE$ and $DE$ at points $B_1$ and $C_1$, respectively. Denote by $I$ and $J$ the centers of the incircles of these triangles, respectively. Segments $IC_1$ and $JB_1$ intersect at point $S$. It is known that $S$ lies on $\Omega$. Prove that the circumcircle of triangle $AED$ is tangent to $\Omega$.

For any nonempty set $S$ of real numbers, let $\sigma(S)$ denote the sum of the elements of $S$. Given a set $A$ of $n$ positive integers, consider the collection of all distinct sums $\sigma(S)$ as $S$ ranges over the nonempty subsets of $A$. Prove that this collection of sums can be partitioned into $n$ classes so that in each class, the ratio of the largest sum to the smallest sum does not exceed 2.
