A useful trick for search engine's is using quotes to denote specific phrases you wish to search for.
E.g. you're searching for a game containing a golden mask, so instead of just putting golden mask into google you put "golden mask" with the quotes and that will search for pages with that specific phrase, as opposed to pages which randomly feature the two words.
...although that's actually not how I found it. I typed in something without quotes, can't remember what it was.

Huh, didn't know that. I searched "mask broke into 5 pieces" and found it. Damn I feel stupid.

I need to find a Quake 3 Mod.
It was based on the idea of combining Quake 3 with an RTS (except everyone is the units and there is no omniscient* being ordering you around) the builder units built by standing next to buildings and pressing the use button when the team had collected enough gold. I remember the gold was scattered around the place like regular powerups would be in a normal quake game, and you carried it around with you until you reached your base (then it was added to the team funds which you used for building)
I also remember that all of the buildings let you play as better units. Like the ice cave (or ice mountain or something like that) let you play as the ice troll (or something like that) and each building could be upgraded by pressing the build button while looking at them (which costs gold, obviously) which gives the units new powers.
Finally, I remember that there were three different teams with different units and they would be randomly chosen before the match begins (since Quake 3 only supports 2 teams)
I remember all of this but not the darned NAME!
*That's the right word, right?
