In a Martian civilization, all logarithms whose bases are not specified are assumed to be base $b$, for some fixed $b \geq 2$. A Martian student writes down \begin{align*}3 \log(\sqrt{x}\log x) &= 56\\\log_{\log (x)}(x) &= 54 \end{align*} and finds that this system of equations has a single real number solution $x > 1$. Find $b$.

At a table tennis competition, every pair of players played each other exactly once. Every boy beat thrice as many boys as girls, and every girl was beaten by twice as many girls as boys. How many competitors were there, if we know that there were $10$ more boys than girls? There are no draws in table tennis, every match was won by one of the two players.
