Here we go then...Today, we are only going to be editing one function in g_main.c.
Find the EndDMLevel function. You should see something like this:

/*
=================
EndDMLevel

The timelimit or fraglimit has been exceeded
=================
*/
void EndDMLevel (void)
{
	edict_t		*ent;
	char *s, *t, *f;
	int			its_a_draw;
	static const char *seps = " ,\n\r";

	// stay on same level flag
	if ((int)dmflags->value & DF_SAME_LEVEL)
	{
		BeginIntermission (CreateTargetChangeLevel (level.mapname) );
		return;
	}

As you may have guessed, this is the function that is executed when it's time for the map to change - either the fraglimit or timelimit (or in CTF, caplimit) has been reached.
To enable us to display and/or log the winner, we need to change this...replace EndDMLevel with the code below.

/*
=================
EndDMLevel

The timelimit or fraglimit has been exceeded
=================
*/
void EndDMLevel (void)
