Task brief

The task brief is leant against a movie theatre bucket of popcorn, on a small table in the hallway of the mansion. The brief for the task is as follows:

Stop Pilvi from eating the popcorn.

You cannot hurt Pilvi or move the popcorn bowl.

You have 10 minutes before Pilvi arrives.

The longest time that Pilvi goes without eating popcorn wins.

Your time starts now.

Task notes

  • The fact that the contestants are only explicitly forbidden from moving the ‘popcorn bowl’ leaves open the possibility of them moving the popcorn itself, of which several contestants take advantage.

Notes on task scores

  • Although no bonus points are mentioned in the task brief, Jaakko decides to award extra points to two of the contestants for somewhat arbitrary reasons.
