This is a tool-assisted speedrun. For more information, see http://tasvideos.org/520M.html

This movie has been obsoleted by http://tasvideos.org/4104M.html. TAS originally published on 2006-04-04.

This movie aims for the fastest time to get the CPU player bankrupt, and abuses luck to its fullest to make that happen.

After a few turns of Monopoly war in the submissions, this version won out. It utilizes the same strategy from the previous one, but several seconds have been shaved by reverse engineering the random number generator and a brute force computer search to achieve the desired randomization with the least possible delay. Details can be found in the submission comments (http://tasvideos.org/1011S.html).

Under assumption of pure randomness, the odds of reproducing this dice and card sequence on a console is 1 in a few (North American) trillions (22 568 879 259 648, divided by the few slight variations that could work).

FractalFusion (http://tasvideos.org/FractalFusion.html) has produced an alternate superplay (http://tasvideos.org/1166S.html) of Monopoly that is 3 seconds faster, but controversial. It has been cancelled.
