Players $A$ and $B$ play a "paintful" game on the real line. Player $A$ has a pot of paint with four units of black ink. A quantity $p$ of this ink suffices to blacken a (closed) real interval of length $p$. In every round, player $A$ picks some positive integer $m$ and provides $1/2^m $ units of ink from the pot. Player $B$ then picks an integer $k$ and blackens the interval from $k/2^m$ to $(k+1)/2^m$ (some parts of this interval may have been blackened before). The goal of player $A$ is to reach a situation where the pot is empty and the interval $[0,1]$ is not completely blackened.
Decide whether there exists a strategy for player $A$ to win in a finite number of moves.

Yuri and Vlad are playing a game on the table $4 \times 100$. Firstly, Yuri chooses $73$ squares $2 \times 2$ (squares can intersect, but cannot be equal). Then Vlad colours the cells of the table in $4$ colours such that in any row and in any column, and in any square chosen by Yuri, there were cells of all 4 colours. After that Vlad pays 2 rubles for every square $2 \times 2$, not chosen by Yuri, which cells of all 4 colours.
What is the maximum possible number of rubles Yuri can get regardless of Vlad's actions

Let $n$ be a positive integer. A \emph{pseudo-Gangnam Style} is a dance competition between players $A$ and $B$. At time $0$, both players face to the north. For every $k\ge 1$, at time $2k-1$, player $A$ can either choose to stay stationary, or turn $90^{\circ}$ clockwise, and player $B$ is forced to follow him; at time $2k$, player $B$ can either choose to stay stationary, or turn $90^{\circ}$ clockwise, and player $A$ is forced to follow him.
After time $n$, the music stops and the competition is over. If the final position of both players is north or east, $A$ wins. If the final position of both players is south or west, $B$ wins. Determine who has a winning strategy when:
(a) $n=2013^{2012}$
(b) $n=2013^{2013}$

Michael plays catcher for his school's baseball team. He has always been a great player behind the plate, but this year as a junior, Michael's offense is really improving. His batting average is $.417$ after six games, and the team is $6-0$ (six wins and no losses). They are off to their best start in years.
On the way home from their sixth game, Michael notes to his father that the attendance seems to be increasing due to the team's great start, "There were $181$ people at the first game, then $197$ at the second, $203$ the third, $204$ the fourth, $212$ at the fifth, and there were $227$ at today's game." Just then, Michael's genius younger brother Tony, just seven-years-old, computes the average attendance of the six games. What is their average?

[b]p21[/b]. During a recent math contest, Sophy Moore made the mistake of thinking that $133$ is a prime number. Fresh Mann replied, “To test whether a number is divisible by $3$, we just need to check whether the sum of the digits is divisible by $3$. By the same reasoning, to test whether a number is divisible by $7$, we just need to check that the sum of the digits is a multiple of $7$, so $133$ is clearly divisible by $7$.” Although his general principle is false, $133$ is indeed divisible by $7$. How many three-digit numbers are divisible by $7$ and have the sum of their digits divisible by $7$?

[b]p22.[/b] A [i]look-and-say[/i] sequence is defined as follows: starting from an initial term $a_1$, each subsequent term $a_k$ is found by reading the digits of $a_{k-1}$ from left to right and specifying the number of times each digit appears consecutively. For example, $4$ would be succeeded by $14$ (“One four.”), and $31337$ would be followed by $13112317$ (“One three, one one, two three, one seven.”) If $a_1$ is a random two-digit positive integer, find the probability that $a_4$ is at least six digits long.
[b]p23.[/b] In triangle $ABC$, $\angle C = 90^o$. Point $P$ lies on segment $BC$ and is not $B$ or $C$. Point $I$ lies on segment $AP$, and $\angle BIP = \angle PBI = \angle CAB$. If $\frac{AP}{BC} = k$, express $\frac{IP}{CP}$ in terms of $k$.
[b]p24.[/b] A subset of $\{1, 2, 3, ... , 30\}$ is called [i]delicious [/i] if it does not contain an element that is $3$ times another element. A subset is called super delicious if it is delicious and no delicious set has more elements than it has. Determine the number of super delicious subsets.
