Hello, it's been 30minutes i took in the search but i just can't find it or maybe it never existed.

I think there was on TL an article that was something like : "Brood war explained for SC2 players" and "SC2 explained for BW players". I think there was a similar article for LOL ? or DOTA2 too ?

Do you know where i can find it ? (i ask here because it was a staff article). BBut i can't remember who wrote it

[countdown]
The countdown tag will add a timer to your post that will count down based upon the length that you specify. Note that when you add the tag, that the time from which the timer begins is from the post date of the response. As an example, if you were to place a 12 hour timer in a post that is more than 12 hours old, the timer will output to 0m 0s, as the timer has already reached zero. The following are considerations to note when using this tag:

• You are allowed to use yesterday, today, tomorrow, and now. Yesterday/Today/Tomorrow are based on KST, not your local time, and will round to the closest hour, whereas now will not.
  
• Uses the English date format, e.g. month followed by day.
  
• When you specify a time, and you're not using KST, if the time is already past in your local time, it will only start counting to it again if it's a new day in KST (if it's past midnight), otherwise it will display 0m 0s.
  
• Display is also days & hours, hours & minutes, or minutes & seconds. If there are no more full days, it starts using hours as the first space, if there's no more full hours, then it starts using minutes.

The following are a number of possible iterations when using this tag:

[countdown]24:00 CEST[/countdown]

[countdown]4.4.2017 24:00 CEST[/countdown]

[countdown]tomorrow[/countdown]

[countdown]10 hours 2min 2secs[/countdown]

[countdown]2 years 2 months 2 days 2 hours 2min 2secs[/countdown]

Also note that you cannot style the text within the countdown tag, but can by placing the appropriate styling outside this tag.


Finally, you can also add in GMT, EST, KST or other time designations into the countdown field, such as the following (you can also combine today/tomorrow, with this as well):

[countdown]24:00 GMT-05:00[/countdown]

See posts 128 and 130 for more examples.
