Timer Count Up rather than Countdown was created by Spencer Pryor

Kalispera Christof,

I'm fairly new to Simple Quiz and I like what I'm seeing so far!

One query is there an easy way to get the timer to count up rather than down to give Time Taken to do a quiz? You could still keep the maximum time limit on the timer so it times out at whatever time you set it.

Then store that time in the database so that when publishing results we can rank people by fastest to slowest to complete quiz?

Thanks

Spencer

Yassou Spencer!
Thank you for posting on our forum.

Unfortunately, there's no easy way to change the timer to go up at the moment, and we currently don't store the time it took for users to complete the quiz.
We could probably do the second without too much effort.

Would you like to explain your point of view and why it would be better to count up rather than down?
