You take two ships on opposite sides. One sinks the other, and gets money from the kill. The amount of money is also added as points to a bounty score. Then, each time you sink a ship, you get the bounty amount in gold. And if a ship sinks you, they get your bounty. So you kill each other back and forth, exchanging bounties, with the actual bounty slowly increasing, until you both have maxed gold.

If you have, say 8 ships total, you line up in Spanish, French. And you go down the line and sink the person next to you. When the person respawns, they sail to the back of the line, to continue the process.

If you have a cannoneer, whoever did the most damage gets the most bounty gold. If two ships hit you before you sunk, the bounty is divided up between the two ships depending on how much damage each ship made on your ship.
