    A lot of the time, games end a couple seconds before someone is about to cap. In my opinion, its really unfair and annoying especially when it happens to you.

    To fix this, there should be overtime. When the timer hits 0:00, if only 1 team has the flag, the timer says "OVERTIME". Overtime would end when:
    • The flag is recovered
    • The flag is captured
    • The other team picks up the flag (so both teams have the other team's flag)
    • 3 minutes have passed

    I'd personally be down for the idea if it happened with both players having the flag. I can't tell you how many times I was about to get a clutch recov in a stalemate and the game ended.

    This would likely end up in those long statements just being even longer. My original suggestion wouldn't add potentially 3 minutes of boring gameplay since either a capture or a recovery will happen (the only reason it needs to end by default after 3 minutes is in case someone holds the flag and refuses to capture just to extend the game). However, if both players having the flag would cause the game to go into overtime, more often than not it'd just lead into 3 minutes more of the same, boring stalemate.

    I was once literally pearling to the flag (and my pearl was 2 blocks from the flag)...and the game ended.

    Personally, I think this should apply when both teams are holding the flag, or both teams are at the same number of captures (i.e. both teams have 2 caps).

    great idea +1
    only problem i see with this one if a flag carrier dies, flag isnt recovered, and someone picks it back up. There should be easy fixes to this doe.
