Two players $A$ and $B$ take turns playing the following game: There is a pile of $2003$ stones. In his first turn, $A$ selects a divisor of $2003$ and removes this number of stones from the pile. $B$ then chooses a divisor of the number of remaining stones, and removes that number of stones from the new pile, and so on. The player who has to remove the last stone loses. Show that one of the two players has a winning strategy and describe the strategy.

Ana, Beto, Carlos, Diana, Elena and Fabian are in a circle, located in that order. Ana, Beto, Carlos, Diana, Elena and Fabian each have a piece of paper, where are written the real numbers $a,b,c,d,e,f$ respectively.
At the end of each minute, all the people simultaneously replace the number on their paper by the sum of three numbers; the number that was at the beginning of the minute on his paper and on the papers of his two neighbors. At the end of the minute $2022, 2022$ replacements have been made and each person have in his paper it´s initial number. Find all the posible values of $abc+def$.
