Maybe in order to understand mankind, we have to look at the word
itself: "Mankind". Basically, it's made up of two separate words -
"mank" and "ind". What do these words mean ? It's a mystery, and that's
why so is mankind.

There is a number of in game command related to a timer, including a countdown, a repeating countdown etc.

use the /help command and scroll up. The command you are looking for are :

/alarm - diplays all set alarms

/alarmAddAt

/alarmAddAtRepeat

/alarmAddIn

/alarmAddInRepeat

etc

You can do three things:

1) /pause ###; /tell {your char name} whatever

where ### is the number of seconds you want to wait. I use this for really short waits when I want to alt-tab out of the game for a minute or two (the /tell gives a beep when it arrives, which can be heard when you're switced to another application).

2) /addalarmat HH:MM {message}

sets an alarm to go off at a particular time (say 1am when you want the game to tell you to go to bed). IIRC, you need to give it in 24-hr format, so an alarm at 11:30 pm would be:

/addalarmat 23:30 Bedtime

3) /addalarmin HH:MM {message}

sets an alarm to go off in HH hours and MM minutes. So if you just missed the shuttle:

/addalarmin 0:05 Shuttle boarding

I think there might besome additional options for setting the alarm sound. Try "/help addalarmat" and "/help addalarmin" for more details.
