to move one or your balls from one bowl to the other, or
∙

to remove a ball from the white bowl, with the condition that the resulting position (that is, the number of bullets in the two bowls) have not occurred before. The player who has no valid move to make loses. Can any of the players be sure to win? If so, which one?

, but the seventh bag lacks etiquette. The sensor has set certain requirements: Robb must have three bags and his sisters two bags each. In addition, Arya will have the bag that contains

beads. The bags should be distributed so that each of the siblings get the same number of pearls (this is possible according to the donor). How many pearls are there in the bag without a label, how many pearls are there in total and how should the bags be distributed?
