Captain games are popular on high level ctf servers. However it is not always ideal, due to: afk people, people leaving during the game, servers full, lack of admins etc. I believe the pickups on irc, like on other games (quake, dota) could solve these problems. Thanks to Rajh and Kottizen, there is a bot on the channel #teefun on quakenet which let us do ctf pickups.
The current default configuration is: 5on5 ctf.
Everybody is welcome as long as the rules are followed.

What is a pickup game?
Pickup games are organized by people who like to have a decent, fun game. The idea should be that players don’t leave during the game and that each team uses at least some basic teamplay in which, for example, attackers and defenders are selected before each match. These pickup games are formed on IRC on quakenet. Join the #teefun channel to join in for a game when you think you’re ready!
How does this work?
When enough players have added, a server will be launched with a random password. A bot will pm you with the name, the ip and the password of the server. Once all players joined, two captains are choose by players. Everyone except the captains spec and the captains decide them-self or fight each other to know who will start to pick. Ready up and go!
Read the rules, they are important!
Available commands:
* !add : add yourself for a capture the flag game
* !remove : removes yourself from the game you signed up for
* !teams : see who is added
Rules
* Use the same nickname on irc and on the server
* Picking order is 1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1
* Be swift during pickup: don’t waste each others time by joining late from irc or by jumping/shooting around foolishly. Join the server, spectate, join the game when chosen, vote yes on the mapvote, arrange player positions, and ready up.
* Channel language is English oriented, respect this!
* If you are added to a pickup that you can't play anymore, try to find a sub or a spec to take your place. However, others should not find a sub/spec for you, you should do this yourself.
Remarks
It is up to all players to help out captains who don’t know everybody. Help them pick wisely to make balanced teams and the match will be more pleasant and balanced!
