In a club, there are $n$ members, and they are deciding some sport training sessions, satisfying all of these requirements: [i]i)[/i] Each member attends in all training sessions; [i]ii)[/i] At each training sessions, the club are divided into $3$ groups: swimming group, cycling group, running group (each member joins exactly $1$ group and each group consists of at least $1$ person); [i]iii)[/i] For any $2$ members of the club, we can find at least $1$ session such that there are $2$ people that are not in the same group. a) Assume that $n=9$. We know that the club has ran $1$ training session and it will run $1$ more session. How many ways to divide the group for the second training session? b) Assume that $n=2022$. Find the minimum number of training sessions that the club have to run?

Amy and Bob play the game. At the beginning, Amy writes down a positive integer on the board. Then the players take moves in turn, Bob moves first. On any move of his, Bob replaces the number $n$ on the blackboard with a number of the form $n-a^2$, where $a$ is a positive integer. On any move of hers, Amy replaces the number $n$ on the blackboard with a number of the form $n^k$, where $k$ is a positive integer. Bob wins if the number on the board becomes zero. Can Amy prevent Bob’s win? [i]Maxim Didin, Russia[/i]

Andy, Bess, Charley and Dick play on a $1000 \times 1000$ board. They make moves in turn: Andy first, then Bess, then Charley and finally Dick, after that Andy moves again and so on. At each move a player must paint several unpainted squares forming $2 \times 1, 1 \times 2, 1 \times 3$, or $3 \times 1$ rectangle. The player that cannot move loses. Prove that some three players can cooperate to make the fourth player lose.
