On a stormy night ten guests came to dinner party and left their shoes outside the room in order to keep the carpet clean. After the dinner there was a blackout, and the gusts leaving one by one, put on at random, any pair of shoes big enough for their feet. (Each pair of shoes stays together). Any guest who could not find a pair big enough spent the night there. What is the largest number of guests who might have had to spend the night there?

Construct a tetromino by attaching two $2 \times 1$ dominoes along their longer sides such that the midpoint of the longer side of one domino is a corner of the other domino. This construction yields two kinds of tetrominoes with opposite orientations. Let us call them $S$- and $Z$-tetrominoes, respectively. Assume that a lattice polygon $P$ can be tiled with $S$-tetrominoes. Prove that no matter how we tile $P$ using only $S$- and $Z$-tetrominoes, we always use an even number of $Z$-tetrominoes.
