    FinalCountdownMinutes = 5,     -- If using "final" visibility, show in last X minutes
    
    TimerScreenPos = "topright",   -- Timer position options:
                                   -- "topcenter", "topleft", "topright"
                                   -- "bottomcenter", "bottomleft", "bottomright"
