I’m so noob right, and i was reading the rules and cant get my head around why two maps are played in week 2 and week 6?? how is it meant to work exactly?
King of the Hill + Control Points
You play one map first, and then the other. Two maps because both koth_ and cp_ maps are done within 30min each.
KOTH = King of the hill
CP= Capture Point
these are game modes, like PL is Payload and PLR is Payload Race

Yeah i get that, but what if one team wins one map and the other wins the other map?? I mean in terms of scoring and such
okay, so I’m assuming if a golden cap is involved then the winning team is whichever got that golden cap in the map?
4.1.3 Golden Cap: Decider round in case of a draw
If the score is tied after the timelimit has been reached, a decider round (golden cap) will have to be played. If no team has won the round after 10 minutes have passed, the win will be awarded to the team controlling the middle capture point. The winner of a map that ended with a golden cap round gets 2 points, the loser gets 1 point.
Please read the General Rules carefully, especially the section regarding maps.

yeah i have read the rules carefully and it doesn’t actually explain my question..
example:
Team A wins koth_viaduct 3-2
Team B wins cp_gullywash 4-3 in the golden cap round
Question is who is the overall winner?? both teams have won a map??
Team A gets 3 points for winning the first map outright, then 1 point for losing on golden cap
Team B gets 2 points for winning golden cap
(I THINK ?)
Quoted from basshead

(I THINK ?)
That’s correct.
So the final result would be 4:2 for the team who won koth_viaduct and lost gullywash.
But even if the each team would win a map and the final result would be 3:3, what would it matter? Both teams get 3 points on the tables and move on to their next games.
Okay thank you for explaining, I thought it was like two halves to the game, rather than each map being a separate game
A golden cap win is actually only half a win – both teams still get a point for the result being a draw, and then on top of that the winner of the golden cap gets an extra point.
If that happens to only 1 map out ouf the 2 maps in your match, the total overall result would be 5-1:
Map one: 3 – 0
Map two: 1 -1
GC two: 1 – 0
Or 4-2 if the other team wins the golden cap:
Map one: 3 – 0
Map two: 1 -1
GC two: 0 – 1
If both maps end in a golden cap:
Map one: 1 -1
GC One: 1 – 0
Map two: 1 -1
GC two: 1 – 0
End result: 4-2
or
Map one: 1 -1
GC One: 1 – 0
Map two: 1 -1
GC two: 0 – 1
End result: 3-3
So basically it’s pretty simple, consider each map separate for the final scoring of a 5cp map:
If you outright win a map you get 3 points (for that map), if you lose you get 0. If you draw a map, a golden cap (GC) round must be played (rcon mp_timelimit 10; rcon mp_winlimit 1). Winner of a GC gets 2 points, loser gets 1 point. If no team scored during GC, the team owning the middle point wins. If nobody owns the middle point (how you would manage this is beyond me) you restart the GC round.
KOTH has no GC since no draw is possible (it has no timelimit, first to 3 aka best of 5) so you either get 0 or 3 points.
I never understood how scoring works in ad/pl though…

golden cap basically.
if the game is a tie, both have won 1 round each getting 3 points each. a 3rd round has to be played, but bc max points has already been reached the winner gets 1 point from the loser, making the points 4-2
right?
