In a standard game of Rock–Paper–Scissors, two players repeatedly choose between rock, paper, and scissors, until they choose different options. Rock beats scissors, scissors beats paper, and paper beats rock. Nathan knows that on each turn, Richard randomly chooses paper with probability $33\%$, scissors with probability $44\%$, and rock with probability $23\%$. If Nathan plays optimally against Richard, the probability that Nathan wins is expressible as $a/b$ where $a$ and $b$ are coprime positive integers. Find $a + b$.

2020 Tournament Of Towns, 6
Alice has a deck of $36$ cards, $4$ suits of $9$ cards each. She picks any $18$ cards and gives the rest to Bob. Now each turn Alice picks any of her cards and lays it face-up onto the table, then Bob similarly picks any of his cards and lays it face-up onto the table. If this pair of cards has the same suit or the same value, Bob gains a point. What is the maximum number of points he can guarantee regardless of Alice’s actions?

[b]polyhedral[/b]
we call a $12$-gon in plane good whenever:
first, it should be regular, second, it's inner plane must be filled!!, third, it's center must be the origin of the coordinates, forth, it's vertices must have points $(0,1)$,$(1,0)$,$(-1,0)$ and $(0,-1)$.
find the faces of the [u]massivest[/u] polyhedral that it's image on every three plane $xy$,$yz$ and $zx$ is a good $12$-gon.
(it's obvios that centers of these three $12$-gons are the origin of coordinates for three dimensions.)
time allowed for this question is 1 hour.

When a student multiplied the number $66$ by the repeating decimal,
$$1. \underline{a} \underline{b} \underline{a} \underline{b} … = 1.\overline{ab},$$ where $a$ and $b$ are digits, he did not notice the notation and just multiplied $66$ times $1. \underline{a} \underline{b}.$ Later he found that his answer is $0.5$ less than the correct answer. What is the $2$- digit integer $\underline{a} \underline{b}$?
