Introduction
The HTF League is an open competition based around the popular computer game , BZflag , a multiplayer first-person tank action wargame .
It's free to download and play over the internet , and is available for many different PC platforms and Operating Systems .

HTF (Hold-The-Flag or Hunt-The-Flagholder) is a new style of gameplay for BZflag , where all the players are on the same colored team (e.g. Green tanks , Green Flag).
However , the goal of the game is to be the one to capture your team's flag by carrying it to the opposing base .
It's the ultimate combination of Free-For-All(FFA) and Capture-The-Flag(CTF) gamestyles .
But in HTF , there are no teams .. no teammates ... it's every tank for itself ... which means that everyones' an enemy ... and the flag is always up for grabs .
Similar to the bunnyhunt gamestyle , in that whoever is holding the flag should be the main target of all the other tanks .
So prepare yourself for the most intensive tank combat ever . Grab the flag quick ... hold onto it tight ... kill all those that get in your way ... carry it as far as possible towards the opposite base.. and score a point by capturing it , if you can .
Keep it up , and you may just come out of it as the winner .
In the event of a tie between players with the most points , the tied player that captured last wins .

Because when it comes to the battle of the Best ... "There can be only One!"

HTF news and announcements
~(6-26-07): the HTF league is currently in limbo. we will announce publicly when it will be re-started again. Thanks to every1 who participated and helped out with the league! keep playing HTF , have fun , and stay tuned to this site for more updates and new information!

yay =D


~added a Relative Strength Index next to player scores . the Strength index number is calculated individually and is for reference only .
to find your Strength index number , divide your total score by the number# of matches you've played so far , you then end up with the players' performance average(a.k.a. strength index).
(d)default points are not included in the calculations .
 
HTF competition rules
#1 - An official HTF match must begin with a minimum of 3 or more registered players .
#2 - No substitutions will be allowed during an HTF match .
#3 - No secret alliances are allowed . HTF is not a team game .
#4 - All HTF matches must be timed (@30 minutes).
#5 - If a player leaves before the match is over , that player will not get any points credited to him/her .
#6 - A player may not enter an HTF match after it has already started .
#7 - The winner of an HTF match is the player who captures-the-flag the most times during the 30 minute timed period .
#8 - Only 1 winner is allowed per match . In the event of a tie between the players with the highest score , the tieing player who captured the flag last will be the winner of the match .
#9 - The competition will utilize a modified version of the positive-point scoring system:

*all losing players in a match will receive +1 point credit for participation .
*the winner of an HTF match will be awarded with 1 pt. Xmultiplied by the number of players that participated in that particular match .

for example : if 6 players played an HTF match , the winner would be awarded +6 pts. (1 x 6) , an the remaining players would receive +1 pt. each for participation .
so the more players involved in a match , the bigger the winners' "bounty" will be ;)

#10 - If one player remains after the other players have abandoned or forfeited an official HTF match , the remaining player will receive a default credit of +1 point .
#11 - To register in the HTF competition , simply click on the comment link on this page . Enter your BZflag callsign along with the message "yo" in the comment section of the form . You will then be added to the players list .
#12 - To report match scores , you can also use the comment link to leave a message(please include names of the players , date of match , and who won) . Or you can email ski the results at: ski@ist.baat.dk
