Tournament Mode is a game mode released with the February 28, 2008 Patch. Tournament Mode allows for players to customize the basic settings of competitive matches. Similarly to Medieval Mode and Highlander, Tournament Mode is applicable to all existing game modes.
Gameplay
Tournament Mode can be enabled with the server variable mp_tournament. When enabled, Tournament Mode creates a small heading at the top of the HUD, with a display of the win conditions for the current game, the teams' names (if set), and the teams' readiness status. Pressing F4 during the setup phase allows a player to change the name of their team from RED or BLU to anything under five letters. The team name will appear where RED and BLU respectively would on the scoreboard, which is accessed by pressing TAB. Pressing F4 also allows a player to set his team's status, toggling between "Not ready" and "Ready".
When enabled, there are by default no player limits for either team. Players are to join their predetermined team, and wait until all other players are accounted for. During this time, players are free to explore the current map and interact with the other team, however, they are unable to play the map's objectives, such as capturing control points, pushing the cart, or capturing the intelligence. Once both teams have their players, and have both set their team status to "Ready", the game will begin. Teams are maintained throughout rounds, and autobalance is disabled.
Tournament Mode is typically used for competitive matches, but standard server admins are able to enable it at any time.

- Fixed gates being closed during the pre-round time during tournament mode
April 29, 2008 Patch (Gold Rush Update)
- Added Stopwatch mode to Tournament mode

- Tournament mode no longer ends matches early if the time limit is nearly up when a new round starts
- Fixed tournament mode being interrupted if mp_timelimit hits before both stopwatch rounds have been played
- Fixed seeing an empty alert tray under the stopwatch timer.
- Fixed a bug where the time for the tournament mode stopwatch wasn't being displayed.
- Fixed the countdown when both teams are ready always reading "0 seconds"
- Fixed players getting set bonuses applied on tournament servers when the server is restricting the player's weapons using the item_whitelist.
