Wow 1660! That's early. I tried this too, the first chalenge I've done. I got it up in 1868AD, ending score of 9411. I was Cyrus against Isabella on Pangea (which I chose on my own) and tropical (which I also chose).

ok, I give this a try and I launch at 1660 AD.
Use elizabeth, cottage spam wherever there is space. By the end, I can get get tech that are 2-3 turns.
I receieved quite a lot of great people, but I only spent them on the last golden age after I built Taj Mahal. The rest I just use to lightbulb future tech as I dont need the extra golden age.
Oh, howdy by the way!
but I doubt I can come anywhere close to some of y'all's scores. It'll be fun and definitely educational to try, though.
Edit: Never mind, I scrolled all the way down.
Good Job for finishing your first hof challenge But if you want to have a faster date, you may want to try out the financial leaders as they generally tech faster. Also you may want another peaceful financial leader as your opponent/trading partner. I may suggest picking a map that has more lands than water, like highland, oasis, great plains and lakes.
Actually according to the hof, someone has sumbitted a 1575 AD victory, so I'm sure some ppl can probably pull off in the 1400s.
You have to group them together like a stack of units and then select golden age to get the ones you want to do it.1525AD in first attempt.
I was quite surprised about this:
I had 4 GP, two of them GS. I wanted to use one of them for my first golden age, by clicking one GS and one GA. My game ignored this and picked other GPs. So I could do only two golden ages instead of three.
