2020 Portugal MO, 1

It is said that a positive integer is not GOOD, if there exists a permutation of the integers from 1 to n, $(a_1,a_2,...,a_n)$ such that $k + a_k$ is a perfect square for all $k$. For example $5$ is a GOOD number, since the permutation $(3,2,1,5,4)$ checks the condition: $1 + 3 = 2^2$, $2 + 2 = 2^2$, $3 + 1 = 2^2$; $4 + 5 = 3^2$ and $5 +4 = 3^2$. Find all GOOD numbers up to $12$.

By stating on which card a number is there, without looking at the card at all, someone can precisely guess the number. If the number is on Card $A$ and $B$, then the number in question is $1 + 2$ (sum of corner number top left) cards $A$ and $B$. If the numbers are in $A$, $B$, and $C$, the number what is meant is $1 + 2 + 4$ or equal to $7$ (which is obtained by adding the numbers in the upper left corner of each card $A$,$B$, and $C$).

Let $k>2$ be a positive integer. Elise and Xavier play a game that has four steps, in this order. [list=1] [*]Elise picks $2$ nonzero digits $(1-9)$, called $e$ and $f$. [*]Xavier then picks $k$ nonzero digits $(1-9)$, called $x_1,\cdots,x_k$. [*]Elise picks any positive integer $d$. [*]Xaiver picks an integer $b>10$.[/list] Each player's choices are known to the other player when the choices are made. The winner is determined as follows. Elise writes down the two-digit base $b$ number $ef_b$. Next, Xavier writes the $k$-digit base $b$ number that is constructed by concatenating his digits, \[(x_1\cdots x_k)_b.\] They then compute the greatest common divisor (gcd) of these two numbers. If this gcd is greater than or equal to the integer $d$ then Xavier wins. Otherwise Elise wins. (As an example game for $k=3$, Elise chooses the digits $(e, f) = (2, 4)$, Xavier chooses $(4, 4, 8)$, and then Elise picks $d = 100$. Xavier picks base $b = 25$. The base-25 numbers $2425$ and $44825$ are, respectively, equal to $54$ and $2608$. The greatest common divisor of these two is $2$, which is much less than $100$, so Elise wins handily.) Find all $k$ for which Xavier can force a win, no matter how Elise plays.
