Even with fewer than 10 people, there's a high chance of duplication. 5 people indpendently picking digits from 1 to 10 have a nearly 70% chance of duplication;
n! can be improved upon; TSP can be done in n^2 * 2^n space and (I think) n^3 * 2^n time, though that's obviously impractical for any large n.
IIRC, anybody who's going to be pointing lasers into the air is supposed to file notice with the FAA; the FAA will notify any pilots who file a flight plan to avoid that area. A stage show will file the permits; small groups may fail to do so.

It's possible to do better than O(N!); there's a straightforward O(N*2^N) algorithm.
What happens when x == -1?
