2010 Korea - Final Round, 5
On a circular table are sitting $ 2n$ people, equally spaced in between. $ m$ cookies are given to these people, and they give cookies to their neighbors according to the following rule.
(i) One may give cookies only to people adjacent to himself.
(ii) In order to give a cookie to one's neighbor, one must eat a cookie.
Select arbitrarily a person $ A$ sitting on the table. Find the minimum value $ m$ such that there is a strategy in which $ A$ can eventually receive a cookie, independent of the distribution of cookies at the beginning.

2012 BMT Spring, 4
There are 1$2$ people labeled $1, ..., 12$ working together on $12$ missions, with people $1, ... , i $working on the $i$th mission. There is exactly one spy among them. If the spy is not working on a mission, it will be a huge success, but if the spy is working on the mission, it will fail with probability $1/2$. Given that the first $11$ missions succeed, and the $12$th mission fails, what is the probability that person $12$ is the spy?
