Team CTFs

In a Teams CTF, participants compete in groups rather than individually. Each team collaborates to solve challenges and earn points during the competition.

Key Features:

• Team formation: Participants can create or join teams.
• Leaderboard: Displays team rankings throughout the competition.
• Statistics: Organizers and participants can track performance insights.
• Submission tracking: Every challenge submission is logged and tied to the team.

How Team CTFs Work

1. The organizer shares the competition link with their audience.

2. Each participant must create an account to join the competition.

3. Players can create a new team or join an existing one.

4. Once the competition begins, players in the teams solve challenges collectively and submit answers under their team.

Creating a Team

Each registered user has the ability to create a team for a competition. For every CTF, a user may only create or belong to a single team. Membership in multiple teams within the same competition is not permitted.

Joining a Team

To join a team, a user navigates to the Teams section of the competition and selects Join Team on the desired team. A user can only join one team per competition.

Team Management

The team leader holds administrative control over the team. They may remove members at any point, including during the competition itself.

Participant Restrictions

Organizers may restrict competitions to certain groups (e.g., by gender, university, country).

• In this case, players must first update their profile information to meet the eligibility criteria.

• Only after updating their profile, they can join the competition and begin solving challenges.
