Description
Dropdown takes place in snowy Maine, where Red and Blue have decided to test new anti-gravity technology by having a game of CTF where the flag is floating in a long chute.
Dropdown is normal CTF, but with a few twists regarding how to get the flag. In Dropdown, the flag (which is in a long chute that leads to the basement) can only be accessed via an entrance near the spawn room. The doors leading to it are closed, but a security switch can be flipped to briefly open up the doors, allowing anyone to get the flag. Once the flag has been stolen, the flag runner must get out of the enemy's basement and run back to the capture point in his base.

Top Hole
The Top Hole is where you'll end up right after you come out of Respawn. In the center of it is the door that leads to the flag (and Flag Room), to the right of the flag entrance is the Spiral to Security, on the left and right of the spawn room itself are routes for classes with jumping skills to use to bypass the Yard, and in the very back is a detpackable wall that leads to the Generator Room.
Attackers that have a jumping skill should use the routes leading outside. If they time their jumps right, they can bypass the entire yard and end up right in front of the enemy's F
