Let $N$ be the set of positive integers. If $A,B,C \ne \emptyset$, $A \cap B = B \cap C = C \cap A = \emptyset$ and $A \cup B \cup C = N$, we say that $A,B,C$ are partitions of $N$. Prove that there are no partitions of $N, A,B,C$, that satis fy the following: (i) $\forall a \in A, b \in B$, we have $a + b + 1 \in C$ (ii) $\forall b \in B, c \in C$, we have $b + c + 1 \in A$ (iii) $\forall c \in C, a \in A$, we have $c + a + 1 \in B$

Circle $\Gamma$ has radius $10$, center $O$, and diameter $\overline{AB}$. Point $C$ lies on $\Gamma$ such that $AC = 12$. Let $P$ be the circumcenter of $\vartriangle AOC$. Line $AP$ intersects $\Gamma$ at $Q$, where $Q$ is different from $A$. Then the value of $\frac{AP}{AQ}$ can be expressed in the form $\frac{m}{n}$, where m and $n$ are relatively prime positive integers. Compute $m + n$.

50 knights of King Arthur sat at the Round Table. A glass of white or red wine stood before each of them. It is known that at least one glass of red wine and at least one glass of white wine stood on the table. The king clapped his hands twice. After the first clap every knight with a glass of red wine before him took a glass from his left neighbour. After the second clap every knight with a glass of white wine (and possibly something more) before him gave this glass to the left neughbour of his left neighbour. Prove that some knight was left without wine. [i]Proposed by A. Khrabrov, incorrect translation from Hungarian[/i]
