EGA (AGI) version in 20m 35s by
Description

Mostly smooth execution, RNG could have been better in places though. (Needlessly driving to the station before waiting for Taselli also cost me some time; and I miszipped at the office a few times.) Sub-20 is definitely possible with god RNG, but I don't currently feel inclined to grind for that...

Regarding poker: I throw away $601 before the game starts to get my balance closer to $0, intentionally lose the first game (which immediately kicks me out of the table), hit F4 to rejoin the game right away, intentionally lose the second game in such a way that my balance goes below $0 and loops around (which the game counts as a win), go get the bug from Detective Angland, and then give all my money to Woody so I can "win" by going below $0 again in the third poker game. I could go below $0 in the first game (which is the 100% strategy), but that would actually lose time in Any%, because I'd have to spend almost a minute waiting for the back-up team to show at the hotel. For some obscure reason, the game was coded so that the back-up team is already there if you've both lost and won at poker exactly once. (This is not a new strategy; FractalFusion's run already used it.)

Played in DOSBox 0.74, maximum cycles, Tandy emulation (which prevents me from using "pr24" instead of "nightstick"). Stream VOD:
