I was wondering if anybody might remember this mod from several years ago.
In '97 or '98 i played this mod for quake on mplayer named q-ball.  It was
for original quake not quakeworld so the lag was pretty bad.  But it was
great team game.  There were 2 teams and the object was to find the quad
damage.  Once the quad damage was held your team would gain a point every 10
seconds.  1 player on the team would hold the quad damage, while holding it
they would only have their axe available relying on their teamates to
protect them.  You could "throw" the qball by switching to another weapon.
The mod was really fun and I havent seen it since mplayer had it for quake a
long time ago.  Has anybody ever recreated this mod?
