Consider a quadratic polynomial $ax^2+bx+c$ with real coefficients satisfying $a\ge 2$, $b\ge 2$, $c\ge 2$. Adam and Boris play the following game. They alternately take turns with Adam first. On Adam’s turn, he can choose one of the polynomial’s coefficients and replace it with the sum of the other two coefficients. On Boris’s turn, he can choose one of the polynomial’s coefficients and replace it with the product of the other two coefficients. The winner is the player who first produces a polynomial with two distinct real roots. Depending on the values of $a$, $b$ and $c$, determine who has a winning strategy.

Peter and Basil together thought of ten quadratic trinomials. Then, Basil began calling consecutive natural numbers starting with some natural number. After each called number, Peter chose one of the ten polynomials at random and plugged in the called number. The results were recorded on the board. They eventually form a sequence. After they finished, their sequence was arithmetic. What is the greatest number of numbers that Basil could have called out?
