Hey, gimme all the beer you've got! What? some of it's spiked with explosives!? Well, that's no good. Guess we'll have to have a Power of Veto Competition!

Players: Burgess - Conis - Hancock - Kaku - Lao G - McKinley

Each of you have 20 barrels labeled 1-20. Three of those barrels have explosives. Your goal is simple. Offer me as many barrels as you can without offering me explosive barrels.

To do so, make a list of barrels that you offer, "Offer: Barrel #x" then post it in your Diary Room. The HouseGuest that offers the most barrels without offering an explosive barrel will win the Power of Veto.

In the event two or more HouseGuests offer the winning same amount or all HouseGuests hit an explosive, the following tiebreaker will decide the winner: What is the product of the three explosive barrels' numbers? The player who comes closest without going over wins. Please give an answer to this along with your offer.

The challenge is non-live so you can do this at any time.

Just to be clear, you should be making a list of all the barrels, ordered in such a way that reflects which barrel you want to offer up first, second, and so on. For example:

Offer: Barrel #1
Offer: Barrel #2
Offer: Barrel #3
...
Offer: Barrel #20

Let's say Barrel #3 was an explosive barrel. That means my record is 2. If someone else put Barrel #3 second in their list, I beat them.

So are we each offering up the same 20 barrels at different times, or do we each have 20 barrels and it just so happens that there are explosives in the same barrel numbers in each of our sets of 20?

These kinds of details are important when randomly deciding how to randomly decide the best random order for a random challenge.

We interrupt this transmission of results (for just a moment, I promise), to admire the display of fireworks currently taking place.
