easy, if your good at events

delay:0 onactivate>printbrick>decreamentprintcount(1)
delay:500 onactivate>printbrick>decreamentprintcount(1)
delay:1000 onactivate>printbrick>decreamentprintcount(1)
and so on

Onactivate > Self > Relay
Relay > Self > Decripmentprintcount(1)
Relay > Self > FireRelay

[General Nick]

Onactivate > Self > Relay
Relay > Self > Decripmentprintcount(1)
Relay > Self > FireRelay

Add 250/500/1000 delays for quater-second/halfsecond/second countdowns.

Actually, it's very possible.
The easiest way would be to have a brick that fires a relay at itself every 30 seconds. It also raises a variable by 1 each time it gets hit by a relay. When that variable is 2880, it should increase the print count of the day brick.

Thanks for explaining. :)

Could someone make an example clock with hours, minutes, and seconds?

That would be greatly appreciated, as I cannot piece together the info mentioned here.

Thank you!

I don't know how to do hours, but you can get down to minutes, seconds, half seconds, quarterseconds, and 1/8th of a second.

You could do milliseconds if you felt like it.

I've seen on a server I think it was the Cotb christmas party server, there was a countdown to christmas clock with days hours and seconds left. Are they using a script of some sort?

I don't need hours, but minutes and seconds would be good.

Oh, haha, I actually had made that script for Technoscubed, who was the host of that server.
So, yes, that was a script, but it is possible with events. (Just a bit more work.)
