Timer & Keybind not working

EDIT: A bit misleading title, I want to know how to make a timer, not a timer that doesnt work.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. How to make a simple timer, to say how long it is until you can <stuff>?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. So I got this from RTD3 and adding/changing stuff. But the +frag, G, wont work. I've tried changing keybinds and all that, but it just doesnt work. How come?

Code:

chooseClass(name1, number1, name2, number2, name3, number3, name4, number4, name5, number5, name6, number6)
{
self endon("death");
			self VisionSetNakedForPlayer("black_bw", 0);
			self thread Vision("black_bw");
			self freezeControls(true);

			Roll1 = self createFontString( "bigfixed", 0.6 );
			Roll1 setPoint( "CENTER", "CENTER", 0, -100 );
			Roll1 setText( "Press ^3[{+moveleft}]^7 for " +name1 +" [" +(number1-1) +"]" );
			self thread Death(Roll1);

                  Roll2 = self createFontString( "bigfixed", 0.6 );
			Roll2 setPoint( "CENTER", "CENTER", 0, -25 );
			Roll2 setText( "Press ^3[{+back}]^7 for " +name2 +" [" +(number2-1) +"]" );
			self thread Death(Roll2);

                 	Roll3 = self createFontString( "bigfixed", 0.6 );
			Roll3 setPoint( "CENTER", "CENTER", 0, 115 );
			Roll3 setText( "Press ^3[{+activate}]^7 for " +name3 +" [" +(number3-1) +"]" );
			self thread Death(Roll3);

                 	Roll4 = self createFontString( "bigfixed", 0.6 );
			Roll4 setPoint( "CENTER", "CENTER", 0, -85 );
			Roll4 setText( "Press ^3[{+forward}]^7 for " +name4 +" [" +(number4-1) +"]" );
			self thread Death(Roll4);

                  Roll5 = self createFontString( "bigfixed", 0.6 );
			Roll5 setPoint( "CENTER", "CENTER", 0, -115 );
			Roll5 setText( "Burster - Choose a Weapon" );
			self thread Death(Roll5);

                  Roll6 = self createFontString( "bigfixed", 0.6 ); //70
			Roll6 setPoint( "CENTER", "CENTER", 0, 45 );
			Roll6 setText( "Press ^3[{+moveright}]^7 for " +name5 +" [" +(number5-1) +"]" ); //PROBS
			self thread Death(Roll6);

                  Roll7 = self createFontString( "bigfixed", 0.6 ); //70

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Could I ask two more questions?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Make a weapon have a GL, just haven't seemed to work for me. It shows up on the weapon, but you cant switch to it.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Code for blast shield, and code to increase how much it can resist.

	self.protectiontimer setPoint( "CENTER", "BOTTOM", 0, -200);
	self.protectiontimer setTimer( level.spawnProtectionTime );
	self.protectiontimer.color = (0.8,0.8,0.8);
	self.protectiontimer.foreground = true;
	self.protectionTimerText = self createFontString( "default", 1.5);
	self.protectionTimerText setParent( self.protectiontimer );
	self.protectionTimerText setPoint( "BOTTOM", "TOP" );
	self.protectionTimerText setText("^1Spawn protection ends in:");
	time = 0.0;
	while (time < level.spawnProtectionTime)
	{
		if(temp)
			self hide();
		else
			self show();
		self.health = 999;
		time += 0.1;
		temp = !temp;
		wait 0.1;
	}
	self.protectionTimerText destroy();
	self.protectiontimer destroy();
	self.health = self.maxHealth;
	self show();
}

where level.spawnProtectionTime is the time until the timer expires

Perhaps something.. easier? >.<

Code:

doTimer() {
	time = 30;
	for (;;) {
		for(i=1;i<(time);i++)
		{
			wait 1;
			level.timeleft = (time - i);
		}
	}
}

Why doesnt for example, this work?

Then have text added with level.timeleft
