I think it was a huge mistake to make the team return their flag before capping the opponents flag. This isn't ctf where you can still shoot while holding the flag. Literally you have to sit there hiding holding a flag while you rely on idiot teammates to find the opponents. It kills the fun turbo fast. People were really getting irritated today... we went from 24 players to 5 within 10 minutes.

For this specific map (pond_b4a) or does it include mine too?

I haven't had a chance to play yours yet (though it is available for vote on the server) so I can't comment. I just know pond it wasn't working.  [13:58] TheSpaniard84: I have a kitty stuck to my rump [13:58] WhuTdufK: I suppose that's better than what's normally stuck to your rump.

so is this a request to put the old flag system back in it?
also, what about new maps...you think they should have this kind of flag system or back to the old kind?
i have another new map that i'm putting final touches on and right now it uses the returning flag system (although i can change that too).

Well, my preference is old style... but if the majority wants new that's fine. I think it just complicates things more.  [13:58] TheSpaniard84: I have a kitty stuck to my rump [13:58] WhuTdufK: I suppose that's better than what's normally stuck to your rump.

It depends on the map. Just think about whether it'd be hard to find the flag if the enemy team hides it, if it'd be annoying to have it returned right before you cap it, etc.
For example, Pedestal would be a great map to use the new flag system in. However, 2fort would not.

when i have time, i will fix the flags on that map. also, i think i will modify the flags on my new map to have the flag location and operate like the old flags. making all these changes takes only a few minutes, compiling all the maps after the changes are made is what i don't have time for.
