The International Mathematical Olympiad is being organized in Japan, where a folklore belief is that the number $4$ brings bad luck. The opening ceremony takes place at the Grand Theatre where each row has the capacity of $55$ seats. What is the maximum number of contestants that can be seated in a single row with the restriction that no two of them are $4$ seats apart (so that bad luck during the competition is avoided)?
Let $ M=\{1,2,...,2013\} $ and let $ \Gamma $ be a circle. For every nonempty subset $ B $ of the set $ M $, denote by $ S(B) $ sum of elements of the set $ B $, and define $ S(\varnothing)=0 $ ( $ \varnothing $ is the empty set ). Is it possible to join every subset $ B $ of $ M $ with some point $ A $ on the circle $ \Gamma $ so that following conditions are fulfilled: $ 1 $. Different subsets are joined with different points; $ 2 $. All joined points are vertices of a regular polygon; $ 3 $. If $ A_1,A_2,...,A_k $ are some of the joined points, $ k>2 $ , such that $ A_1A_2...A_k $ is a regular $ k-gon $, then $ 2014 $ divides $ S(B_1)+S(B_2)+...+S(B_k) $ ?
