Georg has $2n + 1$ cards with one number written on each card. On one card the integer $0$ is written, and among the rest of the cards, the integers $k = 1, ... , n$ appear, each twice. Georg wants to place the cards in a row in such a way that the $0$-card is in the middle, and for each $k = 1, ... , n$, the two cards with the number $k$ have the distance $k$ (meaning that there are exactly $k - 1$ cards between them). For which $1 \le n \le 10$ is this possible?

There are $50$ male and $50$ female members registered in the QED-DB, who are also there are numbered from $1$ to $100$. In $100$ rounds, Andreas chooses at random one member for the seminar in Bad Tolz, whereupon Katharina already has two each time selected QED members of different sexes may or may not be paired up. Of course QED members cannot be coupled multiple times, ignoring relationships from the time before but both conscientiously. The stability of a relationship between two QED members is the amount of the difference between their numbers in DB and the sum of all stabilities is the promotion of young talent in the QED.
