We have a row of 203 cells. Initially the leftmost cell contains 203 tokens, and the rest are empty. On each move we can do one of the following:
1)Take one token, and move it to an adjacent cell (left or right).
2)Take exactly 20 tokens from the same cell, and move them all to an adjacent cell (all left or all right).
After 2023 moves each cell contains one token. Prove that there exists a token that moved left at least nine times.

There are $n$ pieces on the squares of a $5 \times 9$ board, at most one on each square at any time during the game. A move in the game consists of simultaneously moving each piece to a neighboring square by side, under the restriction that a piece having been moved horizontally in the previous move must be moved vertically and vice versa. Find the greatest value of $n$ for which there exists an initial position starting at which the game can be continued until the end of the world.

Let $1,\alpha_1,\alpha_2,...,\alpha_{10}$ be the roots of the polynomial $x^{11}-1$. It is a fact that there exists a unique polynomial of the form $f(x) = x^{10}+c_9x^9+ \dots + c_1x$ such that each $c_i$ is an integer, $f(0) = f(1) = 0$, and for any $1 \leq i \leq 10$ we have $(f(\alpha_i))^2 = -11$. Find $\left|c_1+2c_2c_9+3c_3c_8+4c_4c_7+5c_5c_6\right|$.

The $ 2007\ \text{AMC}\ 12$ contests will be scored by awarding $ 6$ points for each correct response, $ 0$ points for each incorrect response, and $ 1.5$ points for each problem left unanswered. After looking over the $ 25$ problems, Sarah has decided to attempt the first $ 22$ and leave the last three unanswered. How many of the first $ 22$ problems must she solve correctly in order to score at least $ 100$ points?

Mike has $1000$ unit cubes. Each has $2$ opposite red faces, $2$ opposite blue faces and $2$ opposite white faces. Mike assembles them into a $10 \times 10 \times 10$ cube. Whenever two unit cubes meet face to face, these two faces have the same colour. Prove that an entire face of the $10 \times 10 \times 10$ cube has the same colour.
