Perhaps you are inadvertently doing what you might not want to: = is assignment, == is comparison.

Make sure MINE is assigned something in all branches before moving on. Perhaps initialize it on declaration.

Also consider a switch statement instead of a long string of ifs. And consider function to do the contents of each block.

Using cin for number input may be problematic -- consider taking user input as a string and then converting to a numeric value.

Avoid "magic" numbers. Given them a name via #define, const, or perhaps array index, or even character literal.
