How do i configure the time limit and the announcer saying "5,4,3,2,1" and that type stuff? Do i need it to try out my map? If not then WHAT do i need in order to take a test run on my newly created map? Thanks for the help!

It everything is set up for you in the ABS thing. Just plop that in the map in replacement of yours and everything should work. This site is kinda good at giving info on common problems like this: http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Team_Fortress_2_Level_Creation

Have a look at the team_round_timer that is responsible for the round and setup time and that announcement as well. There's a couple more entities you need but those are dependent on the type of map you're building.

the ABS thing.

*points to sig* He speaks of the gametype library. Though you should listen to Mapper Kirby and get all of though.
