the league was popular when the devs were rumoring that the new gamestyle might be intergrated into a future release .. but then the idea kinda got losted .

so now the league is in a kinda limbo ...


=P

HTF sounds too much like rabbit hunt.

HTF: Hold the flag for as long as possible! You drop the flag when you die.
Rabbit: Be the rabbit for as long as possible! You lose the rabbit privilege when you die.

it is like rabbit hunt , and it isn't ...

in HTF theres more to just holding the flag(being the "rabbit") . you have to try an capture the flag . part of the HTF idea was that you can score points for capturing . not kill points either . it was a totally seperate set scoring/stats (# of captures made by a player) something regular CTF or RH lacks . also , whoever possesses the flag becomes the main target . it's not random or assigned , as with rabbit hunt .
HTF also has alil FFA element in it , in that u are allowed ...even encouraged ..to shoot at anything and any1 . there are no hunters , no teams .


so there are a few a differences ;)

u have to play it sometime to realize it ;)

HTF is cool... Its also not always best to shoot the flag holder. Sometimes you shoot everyone else, then the flag holder so the others wont stop you after you take the flag...

RULES OF HTF (2004 by RC Cola) original rules:

HTF scores r kept manually , an usually playerz r responsible for keepin track of their own score(an otherz) .
however , final scores can b double-check by addin all da individual scores in da end . da sum of da individual scores should equal to da # of CTF's made durin da match , which da server keeps track of ... displayed on da scoreboard to da right .

there you go
