$k$ is a positive integer, $R_{n}={-k, -(k-1),..., -1, 1,..., k-1, k}$ for $n=2k$ $R_{n}={-k, -(k-1),..., -1, 0, 1,..., k-1, k}$ for $n=2k+1$. A mechanism consists of some marbles and white/red ropes that connects some marble pairs. If each one of the marbles are written on some numbers from $R_{n}$ with the property that any two connected marbles have different numbers on them, we call it [i]nice labeling[/i]. If each one of the marbles are written on some numbers from $R_{n}$ with the properties that any two connected marbles with a white rope have different numbers on them and any two connected marbles with a red rope have two numbers with sum not equal to $0$, we call it [i]precise labeling[/i]. $n\geq{3}$, if every mechanism that is labeled [i]nicely[/i] with $R_{n}$, could be labeled [i]precisely[/i] with $R_{m}$, what is the minimal value of $m$?

The cells of a $8 \times 8$ table are initially white. Alice and Bob play a game. First Alice paints $n$ of the fields in red. Then Bob chooses $4$ rows and $4$ columns from the table and paints all fields in them in black. Alice wins if there is at least one red field left. Find the least value of $n$ such that Alice can win the game no matter how Bob plays.

The vertices of a regular nonagon (9-sided polygon) are to be labeled with the digits $1$ through $9$ in such a way that the sum of the numbers on every three consecutive vertices is a multiple of $3$. Two acceptable arrangements are considered to be indistinguishable if one can be obtained from the other by rotating the nonagon in the plane. Find the number of distinguishable acceptable arrangements.
