I've received some comments that seem to indicate that there is something amiss with the current rules, so I'm proposing a standardized DOSBox config setup to help ensure equal footing for all runners.

My runs have all been done on a config file with with core=auto, cputype=auto, cycles=8000. No other settings should affect the simulation speed, but I just wanted to check in here to get comments from the runners. Should we specify core=simple, cputype=386_slow? Some other combination? To verify, should we require the title bar to be visible?

Also, with the addition of non-banker classes, I am considering changing the timer start to the input that dismisses the class selection screen so that Banker does not have an automatic advantage over the others. This would require a re-time of all runs, but that shouldn't be the end of the world.

Finally, I have a request that we require sound on all submissions.

Let me know what you all think.

Thinking about adding categories for other occupations, but there are so many that it seems kind of pointless to do them all. I was thinking maybe just Teacher? That should give us the (arguably) easiest and hardest occupations.

I've updated the Any% rules to reflect the way the majority of runners now time this game. That means I'm going to have to re-time DWD's original WR run and adjust its time to match. No other changes should be necessary.
