What if the each team had more than one flag spawn (3's a good number), all in the same general area but a little ways away from each other.
Each time the flag was returned or capped, it would go to a different spawn point. It could be a cycle, or even better, random.
This would prevent that guy from getting that quick cap that occurs after his team just capped and all his enemies are down at his base, ya know? Also I think it mich just spice things up a little bit, and make for creative mapping ideas.

There would have to be a new game mode for it. It woulden't be the same gameplay as CTF. Not a bad idea though. I would have to play it to see if I like it.

It's possible already, just put 2 flags of the same color in different places. This is proven to have worked in one of Vitch's maps.

But if they're in drastically different areas, the flag tends to locate itself at one point more than the other (at least, according to my testing)...

If I remember correctly, when people tried my map online it generally glitched out and stopped working. It does, however, work in single player.

This is good idea, just because of this thing: "yay! i just wait in here for the flag!"

In infilration that random flag places would rock, so its not so easy to catch the flag, but also harder to defend... But not if you make good map for that kind of playing.

This is an excellent idea, similar to several other games I've played.
Though this would be an interesting improvement, it would either require a total reformat of existing maps, or a whole new set. This is a lot of trouble for a small improvement, since most people are already okay with the current settings.
If you can make a map yourself that works, then I'd be glad to try.

i like the idea, but then theres the issue that a team will just split up and goto every possible spawn point there is

Yeah, but if you make maps good, you dont need to camp on every flag spawn points.

No it wouldn't.
