Definition

Gamersuse CTF as shorthand for "capture the flag." This acronym describes a game mode in which two teams attempt to capture each other's flag and return it to their home base to win. Often, CTF matches are timed, and the team that manages to retrieve the other team's flag the most number of times wins.
