There should be clarification. Rules will be changed for tall tales runs to - All runners must be on the ship at the island the tale is voted for. As for the Athena's runs, only the last person to vote has to be on the ship. The 100% run rules state the voyage can be started anywhere but you must acquire items for merchant..., these rules were for the old runs and I'll change them to be more appropriate. The any% is much more lenient allowing the boat to be anywhere and runners anywhere on the map. Only the last pirate voting for the Athena's has to be present, to vote for the voyage naturally.

Id say in an any% run you can stock your boat and have anything ready youd like. The door being open isnt an issue.. its an exploit that can and should be taken advantage of. Whatever is faster. Ill review all runs when I get home.

If you are new to the site or are having trouble finding the categories they can be found at the game main menu to the left under level leaderboards. Click the individual level and add your run there.

Ok community. The new categories are up and ready top run. Happy sails. If you see any mistakes in the rules let me know. Good Luck!!

Also congrats to Deadeye TMP for the new world record run. Under 40 minutes, pretty impressive.

Hello Anemion. Welcome to the forum/ community. So individual runs as well as a 100% may be necessary?

RNG has always been a big part of the Athena's run. Things like other players looming in the distance, Meg always a potential threat and the Kraken that will ruin a run. I like it, I think a big part of being a pirate is luck. I'll play through the Tall tales and get a feel for it and come up with some rules. Give me a few days, but it'll be runnable by the end of the week. Happy sails pirates.

Assuming the tall tales are time sensitive like other story lines introduced, the record would be unbeatable when the story ends. Would it upset the community if the record was made unbeatable? If this doesn't, I don't have a problem creating the category. Let me know what you think.
