Well, open the template.sss file in the KOTH section, it should tell you everything you need to know Basically, at every round, everyone is given a 'crown', timer starts at X and counts down, whenever you get Y kills, it resets itself, or is increased of Z seconds (not sure), and whenever all the remaining crowns belong to the same team, every player with a crown is given a part of the koth jackpot, or whatever. So that's why specs can have a KOTH crown at the start of a round.
