Yes - - good idea, but put it at the bottom right or something, and cut down on the amount of shutdown pop-ups aswell!

Gotta admit I dont mind the timer although I consider it a bit carebearish and lame. But yes put it somewhere inoffensive like in a screen corner so i don't have to look at it. And those popups need to be removed asap. Theyre annoying as hell, serve little useful purpose once the first one has popped itself up. Bah!
Quiet! Terrorist at work!

somehow i doubt it...
you could probably modify some of the python in the client to stop it, but i think that is quite heavily against the EULA
part of the reason for this thread is to disable an easier way - making whoever put it in take it out again over today's DT

Agreed.
Put it somewhere else if you have to have it but I for 1 have never lost a ship cos the first 4 pop ups did not give me enough warning.

We started to use a new way of starting and stopping TQ at downtime 2 days ago.
The countdown timer is a feature of the new managment scrips.
I've read your complaints on this.
To move the countdown timer in the UI, we'd need a client patch. It can not be turned off unless we stop using the new scripts, and thats not an option, as they are required for TQ to start up on Windows 2003.
I'll look into getting a hotfix to decrease the number of popups though.

Naa, I think they're fine. I had a 'race the timer' for this downtime, that really did get my heart pounding.

@Valar:
Techie point of view: New stuff on new servers? Great!
Pilot point of view: Did the ccp QA department not test this new feature? It is at a really important place on the screen. It overwrites vital messages.
Btw. the timer jumped a minute ...
For countdown timer racing: I usually looked at the clock in the lower lefthand side to get an idea when the server goes down. It's been at 11:01 in the past.

The count down timer isn't anywhere near as bad as the popups "We'll be closing server soon, get out of harms way". Nor as bad as the reintroduced (and stupid) feature of a popup saying you're not close enough to gate (had that one before, and it caused a lot of people to get ganked by gate camps. Now it just says "Args(o) 'Ignore on top'" or something)

I like the timer, although I can sympathise with the posts about the place where they show up. A timer like the agression timer in the top left would be better. But i'm sure people can live with it until the next client patch.
But now that you have the timer, can you disable the popups as they are not needed anymore.

ok, thanks valar
if you could cut down the popups (to one at 1hr away, and maybe another at 15mins), i'd be grateful
and itd be nice if the timer got moved in blood

One popup at 60mins, one popup at 15 mins, one popup at 5 mins, one popup at the point when the server ACTUALLY shuts down. All that is necessary :D
