countdown token
« on: December 18, 2008, 10:07:15 AM »
Hi all.

I need to create a token to display a count down clock to a specific break.

We are having an end of season final with a 5 min break after each round but with a 30 minuete break after round 5. I need the layout to display a count down to break 5.

Any ideas?

No direct way currently, but sounds like a good feature request.

Does your tournament allow rebuys or add-ons?  If you don't allow rebuys or you don't allow add-ons (or neither), you could use the <addontimeleft> or <rebuytimeleft> tokens.  For example, turn on the setting to Allow Add-ons, set the last round for add-ons to be round 5.  Then the <addontimeleft> token should display the amount of time remaining until round 5 is over.

If turning on add-ons makes the number of add-ons show up in the layout, you can always just remove that cell.
