[Suggestion] Ironman count down on scoreboard sidebar

[Robo]

Its sometimes really hard to know when you're able to Ironman, most people (I bet) don't want to have to do quick math to know when the ten minutes are up.
So, a simple fix to that would be to add an Ironman count down on the scoreboard sidebar. This would help lots of players to know how much time is left for them to Ironman, so they won't miss it.

It would look something like this:
[BCOLOR=#c0c0c0]Ironman[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=#c0c0c0]9:23[/BCOLOR]
When almost over:
[BCOLOR=#ffffff]Ironman[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=#ffffff]1:00[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=#ffffff]Ironman[/BCOLOR]
[BCOLOR=#ffffff]0:10[/BCOLOR]

I really like this idea! +1

It's literally just before 25:00, not that hard
I don't think this needs to be added, honestly

I'm suggesting it as a way to notice it easier (hence it turning orange and red).
Maybe the time could turn red when theres still time for Ironman.

After missing ironman 20 times you will eventuallylearn to watch the time more closely.

Yes, but who would want to do that. :c

Don't think this is necessary. There already is a countdown timer, I doubt it's very hard to memorize 25:00 as the time you can't activate ironman anymore. It just sounds like something that will clog up the scoreboard to me. A simple "One minute left to activate ironman" in the chat seems more useful to me.

 

[Robo]

As something to not clog it up could be that the timer turns red. aswell as your idea. I like either idea.

It is either going to be this or a "ironman warning". I want something added to help potential ironman(ers)

The warning I have in mind would be something like

"There are only 5 minutes left before you can't ironman. Type /ironman activate fast!"

Honestly, I think it should be only 1 minute. In 5 minutes it could still easily be forgotten or something.

"There are only 5 minutes left before you can't ironman. Type /ironman activate fast!"

But it should be red, I insist.

Added a warning instead.
