Wouldn't you be able to make an alias as such
Alias countdown {
umm I am not good at this. but do something like
.timercalc 1 1 .set %timer. [ $+[ $nick ] ] $calc( $+ $2 - 1) | .timercalcr .read %timer. [ $+[ $nick ] ]
.timercalc 1 2 .set %timer. [ $+[ $nick ] ] $calc( $+ %timer. [ $+[ $nick ] ] - 1) | .timercalcr .read %timer. [ $+[ $nick ] ]
}
So on... Now don't count me on this. but what I see it doing is a basic countdown. If you use the $2 as the begining number then have it write the number it equals as a file number. then have it read it. take it away count it down. wouldn't that work also?
