[TAS] Reversi (Intellivision) "fastest draw" in 0.868 seconds

RTA time: 0:02.36
Several glitches were used in a very short time to skip two of the computer's turns. When the computer is finally allowed to play, it incorrectly thinks it has no legal moves, ending the game instantly. It then hilariously tries to play a disc (to a legal position no less) after the game has been called. So how do I know this is technically a draw if the game doesn't explicitly announce the winner? Well, we know it's definitely not a loss because a different jingle plays at the end when that happens. The "victory" jingle that plays here only happens when the player wins or ties, but which is it?
It might look like black (the player) has won because it has two discs on the board, compared to white's 0 (or 1 after the game is called). But the game does not compare the number of discs on-screen to determine what end jingle to play, rather it compares the scores right before the "End of Game!" text appears. At that moment, the game was tied because white was awarded points for its skipped turns. And that is why I believe the result of this game is a tie and does not obsolete the run I uploaded last week.
