I'm using the word advertising very loosely in this case. It's not the actual advertising, but a part of us that may attract others to become interested. If we had something like that depending on classic cube or even minecraft classic isn't a bad thing. I really like Classic but for that reason, nobody else plays classic. We kind of lost attraction when SMP became more popular, there was no reason to play classic let alone ctf anymore. The only people who stayed are the ones who really find value in the game, community, players, etc.
Doing ctf in premium has been tried before and there is even a ctf standalone for that now I believe. I think it would help but only if literally everything was ported the same way. Less importance on weapons like swords and bows and more on TNT (if we could manage to keep the radius to 5x5x5.
As for the skill level in ctf, it's always been that high. If not, lower level players always manage to become better and keep the standard high. Though there is an intimidation factor when a newer player joins and plays. Maps aren't streamlined to help new players but rather to give advantages to those who know the map well.
One of you mentioned that stats should be reset. Having reset too much is bad, however per regular 3 months or so I think should be okay. It gives incentives for players to work towards being better and being at the top. It's really impossible to climb the ladder right now since you'd have to play all the time and the server isn't always populated enough.
