[u]Round 1[/u] [b]p1.[/b] Six pirates – Captain Jack and his five crewmen – sit in a circle to split a treasure of $99$ gold coins. Jack must decide how many coins to take for himself and how many to give each crewman (not necessarily the same number to each). The five crewmen will then vote on Jack's decision. Each is greedy and will vote “aye” only if he gets more coins than each of his two neighbors. If a majority vote “aye”, Jack's decision is accepted. Otherwise Jack is thrown overboard and gets nothing. What is the most coins Captain Jack can take for himself and survive? [b]p2[/b]. Rose and Bella take turns painting cells red and blue on an infinite piece of graph paper. On Rose's turn, she picks any blank cell and paints it red. Bella, on her turn, picks any blank cell and paints it blue. Bella wins if the paper has four blue cells arranged as corners of a square of any size with sides parallel to the grid lines. Rose goes first. Show that she cannot prevent Bella from winning.

For any two robots, one's battery lasts at least three times as long as the other's. A robot works until its battery is depleted, then recharges its battery until it is full, then goes back to work, and so on. A battery that lasts $N$ hours takes exactly $N$ hours to recharge. Prove that there will be a moment in time when all the robots are recharging (so you can invade the planet). [b]p5.[/b] A casino machine accepts tokens of $32$ different colors, one at a time. For each color, the player can choose between two fixed rewards. Each reward is up to $\$10$ cash, plus maybe another token. For example, a blue token always gives the player a choice of getting either $\$5$ plus a red token or $\$3$ plus a yellow token; a black token can always be exchanged either for $\$10$ (but no token) or for a brown token (but no cash). A player may keep playing as long as he has a token. Rob and Bob each have one white token. Rob watches Bob play and win $\$500$. Prove that Rob can win at least $\$1000$.

The product of every pair of them is also an integer. Prove that they are all integers. (A rational number is one that can be written as $m/n$, where $m$ and $n$ are integers and $n\ne 0$.)

A cube has edges of length $120\text{ cm}$. The cube gets chopped up into some number of smaller cubes, all of equal size, such that each edge of one of the smaller cubes has an integer length. One of those smaller cubes is then chopped up into some number of $\textit{even smaller}$ cubes, all of equal size. If the edge length of one of those $\textit{even smaller}$ cubes is $n\text{ cm}$, where $n$ is an integer, find the number of possible values of $n$.
