I would remind everyone thinking of trying this to not do so as it violates the Microsoft ToS as well as the Rare Pirate Code. Specifically, MSToS Section 3 subsection vi. "Don’t circumvent any restrictions on access to or availability of the Services." and the posting of this violates subsection x. "Don’t help others break these rules." The rule in the Code being broken is Number 7. "Those Who Cheat Shall Be Punished." Seeing as this is "cheating" to get an early start, it could be assumed you are risking a ban or other punishment from Rare either from SoT or from Xbox Live in general, if Microsoft/Rare want to take it that far. I suggest everyone calm down, stock up on bananas and grog, and wait for their times. See you on the seas! :D
