Make timer run on specific map

[mofo]

been trying to work on this but not getting any luck. so i decided to ask for help here. basically i want the timer to run/re-initialize when inside guild_vs2 and stop when the player changes maps. i tried several configurations but the timer keeps running after changing maps. help

OnPCLoadMapEvent:
if ( strcharinfo(3) == "guild_vs2" ) {
attachnpctimer ""+strcharinfo(0)+"";
initnpctimer;
message strcharinfo(0), "Timer Start!";
end;
}
else {
stopnpctimer;
message strcharinfo(0), "Go back to PvP to re-initialize timer!"; }
end;

how about something like this ?

OnPCLoadMapEvent:
while( strcharinfo(3) == "mapname" ){
    // do whatever you want here...
   sleep2 3000; // or any time delay you want.
}
end;

LOL i'm so noob at scripting i didn't know i could use "while". Thanks so much emistry, i'll test it later!

edit: still doesn't work. when i enter guild_vs2 the timer starts. when i change maps, it still keeps counting. argh
