Capture the Flag

There should be a new type of contest that can be just for each server or worldwide but this is how it works:

There are 2 or 4 teams on a map of 600 x 600 and the teams are piled all on each side/corner (depending on how many teams). Each individual starts out with 5k cavalry and everyone has 1000 speed atribute. What you must do is attack the other team(s) players in order to find the flag which is hidden in one of the player's cities (random player). Then when you find it, you get a point. The first team with 10-50 points (depends how long the contest is) wins the game. You can't buy coins but you have unlimited crop (nothing is consumed), otherwise everything is the same. The winning team can get prizes such as coins for the account they use.

I think this is a great Idea because it moves away from "cheating" such as buying excessive coins, feeding, and rigging that happens in PvP. I can't see a way that people could cheat here because no one know where the flags are and everyone has equal opprotunities. I understand that my idea probably has a few flaws because I literally made it up as I was typing. So give any suggestions that you think would make my idea better! Thanks!

I'm also thinking of troops costing less to make each unit, and you get more warehouse space (1,000,000) and oases give more per hour.

Edit (additions thanks to feedback):
1. There would be three chats: World, Team, and Private. On world you can talk to everyone on the map, on Team you talk to only your team mates, on private you may talk to anyone on either team privately.
2. All buildings are upgraded to lvl 20 and enhanced permanently, and all technologies are lvl 10.
3. All oases on map are lvl 10.
4. You may buy coins.

Note: the reason for 600x600 is so that everyone is spread out on each side and the purpose of the 1000 speed is to get across the map much quicker than normally.

This is actually a pretty good idea I think!
The only thing that I think would be a problem is that if this is a game between just servers that the map should not be 600x600!! It would need to be alot smaller like 300x300 or 400x400!! Cause it would just be to big of a playing field!!! You wouldnt have enough time to find the person with the flag! You would have to change the rules to there being 1-10 of thr flag being captured!!

Also when it comes to chat there would have to be 2 different chat rooms so that they can discuss things and strategies!!
One last thing that I would do is to have all resources and building already upgraded to max! So therefore we could get resources flowing to us and have more to work with!!
To make it more interesting an harder to find you would only be able to attack 5-20 times a day, do that way you would have to talk to one another!!!

These are my suggestions if you like them or not then o well!
It's just my opinion!

Buying excessive coins is not cheating, it is the main purpose of this game i think...

600x600 spaces opponents farther apart, making it last longer which may make it more fun...

It's a good idea but haypi willdefinately allow coin buying

if anything would make this game better its this.

I love this idea n like all the players on the winning team get 10-20 coins XD

I think this is a great idea. It would be a way for people to compete who have less of a ability to buy coins, and that are not as advanced of players. And i think a new competition would be fun.

Thank you for posting your suggestion

How likely is it though that something like this would actually happen?
