This is a good idea, and I am also goin to implement this... .. It shouldn't be much work to do that... I will look into this, and hopefully include it... maybe make it like a tag like day[s] then it will write days when the count of days is above 1 and if it's 1 it will only write day.. I will just have to find a suitable way of doing this...

Because of some recent suggestions for this plugin, I want to remind you about a post that I made last year in a thread which talked about a possible "counter in nickname" plugin where I already talked about all the possible things you could implement to satisfy everybody and to make it extremely versetile.

I've checked the thread.. Apperently I was active in that thread to... 
.. lol!!! But I didn't really find anything I could use in your post.... The only thing was really the (!xcountdown) tag.. But I also had that in my previous version.. But now i changed the system a bit so żou can't do this anymore..
With all respect, but you can use everything in that post. The whole system is based upon a few entry fields and all the rest is done with inline tags (aka placeholders). The system is very versitile and you don't need to create any Plus! tags because of that (other then (!xcountdown) or something if you like). You're already working with placeholders, but it lacks big support and freedom to the user, hence the constant requests to add this and that (eg: add a countdown, add a countup, add a way to remove the 's' from 'days', make it international, etc.).
I'm sorry to say this but, although the current plugin works, it is very very limited in it's current setup.

But in the next version I will include tags like (!XCNTY), (!XCNTD),(!XCNTH),(!XCNTYM),(!XCNTS) to show number of yers, days, hours, minutes, seconds that the count down uses... this way you can make you own quicktext like "(!XCNTH) hours ,(!XCNTYM) mins ,(!XCNTS) seconds to some event! 
".. etc..
This will also limit the user and you will still get requests to add this and that, and soon you'll have more then 50 Plus! tags, which is of no use. Revise the system, and use placeholders instead (as shown in my post in that thread), that way the user can make everything as he likes and don't need to constantly use all the Plus! tags in his quicktexts and you also don't overwelm Plus! and the system memory with all kinds of tags....
Well.. I see your point, and I agree with you.. But I can't be bothered putting much more work into this plugin.. I have a thousand of other plugins on my to do list.. so.. I will try to finish this plugin as it is.. I might recode everything when I finally get some time to code a "big" plugin with loads of different features...
... But ATM this is going to be as it is...
