    This is an idea I added to the mcpvp forums a long time ago with an old and irreverent set of ideas that maybe one or two of you might remember. In short: at some point of time (not sure yet, could be at the end of a stalemate match or a set time duration.) The flag holders from both teams would be teleported to the aerial spawn room (with the floor and ceiling blocked off.) with whatever class and condition they were in previously while under a faster flag poison effect (to avoid flag carriers from holding out and stalling the game.) and are forced to fight it out in a 1v1 until one dies and the other recovers their flag. The other players could be still playing the game from below (perhaps in a sudden death round :/) or spectating the match from outside the box in flight mode.

    By doing this we would be removing the boring and tedious stalemates that resort from both cappers being in very difficult position to kill from. While also adding a (possibly) fun new feature.

    What do you peeps think?

    *Abuses by dropping flag at last second*

    Its a cool idea, but I couldn't really see this ingame (Just a personal opinion of mine).

    Could still make it work by the code not recognizing the the flag is dropped and would just teleport the last known holder into the spawn box.

    The overall game-time would still be the same, and when a "showdown" is over the game resumes as normal should there still be time left and the required amounts of caps have not been achieved.

    It's an interesting idea, but I don't think it will work that well in CTF. It could be abused or glitched, and would confuse new players.

    I don't really like the idea as its making CTF aa game of killing when it is a team game where you capture the flag.
