Wow, it's been so long I forgot we even did this. Shocked Anyway, Tom and I made a couple of these challenges back then. You start by using Phalzyrs trainer to set things up, no modding of the .exe was done.

Wow!

I'm late to the party, but thank you for posting this. This savegame is incredible; it creates so many new ways to play!

Now, I know I'm too late to win gold, but here's my entry for fastest capture of the evil 7: July 10, 1681:



As you can see from the log, I saved time by ONLY sneaking into towns (and capturing a few ships for food), and hitting the 7 towns from east to west to save time.

I also learned a lot about sneaking.

There are white arrow signs that point to the Governor's mansion all around town - unless you have just broken out of jail, in which case they point to your ship! The Governor's mansion has a stone wall in front and a garden wall in back; from there the tavern is always located in the same place - 2 streets back on the right side:



When avoiding guards, running almost certainly does not make more noise than walking; I've run right past a guard who was facing the other way. They have no peripheral vision. Someone else posted the importance of watching whether their swords are out; that's key while waiting in a hay bale for them to calm down (they can never find you in a hay bale, so just sit tight!)

Here's 7 guards looking for me at once:
