The city of Neverreturn has $N$ bus stops numbered $1, 2, \cdots , N.$ Each bus route is one-way and has only two stops, the beginning and the end. The route network is such that departing from any stop one cannot return to it using city buses. When the mayor notices a route going from a stop with a greater number to a stop with a lesser number, he orders to exchange the number plates of its beginning and its end. Can the plate changing go on infinitely? [i](K. Ivanov )[/i]

Three travel companies provide transportation between $n$ cities, such that each connection between a pair of cities is covered by one company only. Prove that, for $n \geq 11$, there must exist a round-trip through some four cities, using the services of a same company, while for $n < 11$ this is not anymore necessarily true. [i]Dan Schwarz[/i]

Point $D$ lies on side $BC$ of $\triangle ABC$ so that $\overline{AD}$ bisects $\angle BAC$. The perpendicular bisector of $\overline{AD}$ intersects the bisectors of $\angle ABC$ and $\angle ACB$ in points $E$ and $F$, respectively. Given that $AB=4$, $BC=5$, $CA=6$, the area of $\triangle AEF$ can be written as $\tfrac{m\sqrt n}p$, where $m$ and $p$ are relatively prime positive integers, and $n$ is a positive integer not divisible by the square of any prime. Find $m+n+p$.

Let $n\geq 2$ be a fixed positive integer. Let $\{a_1,a_2,...,a_n\}$ be fixed positive integers whose sum is $2n-1$. Denote by $S_{\mathbb{A}}$ the sum of elements of a set $A$. Find the minimal and maximal value of $S_{\mathbb{X}}\cdot S_{\mathbb{Y}}$ where $\mathbb{X}$ and $\mathbb{Y}$ are two sets with the property that $\mathbb{X}\cup \mathbb{Y}=\{a_1,a_2,...,a_n\}$ and $\mathbb{X}\cap \mathbb{Y}=\emptyset.$ [i]Note: $\mathbb{X}$ and $\mathbb{Y}$ can have multiple equal elements. For example, when $n=5$ and $a_1=...=a_4=1$ and $a_5=5$, we can consider $\mathbb{X}=\{1,1,1\}$ and $\mathbb{Y}=\{1,5\}$. Moreover, in this case, $S_\mathbb{X}=3$ and $S_{\mathbb{Y}}=6.$[/i]

The sides of a convex regular polygon of $L + M + N$ sides are to be given draw in three colors: $L$ of them with a red stroke, $M$ with a yellow stroke, and $N$ with a blue. Express, through inequalities, the necessary and sufficient conditions so that there is a solution (several, in general) to the problem of doing it without leaving two adjacent sides drawn with the same color.

There are 2018 cards numbered from 1 to 2018. The numbers of the cards are visible at all times. Tito and Pepe play a game. Starting with Tito, they take turns picking cards until they're finished. Then each player sums the numbers on his cards and whoever has an even sum wins. Determine which player has a winning strategy and describe it. P.S. Proposed by yours truly :-D
