setting back a timer var

[timepoint5]

Hello;

I am quiet frustrated, i have a nice scroller script whait just hast one disadvantage. After all messages have been displayed, it stops. Bad luck,
before creaping in the script simple and quick would be writing a now funktion which calls the scroller after it finshed. But as i did that the displaying
of the messages went weard. So can anyone help me modifing that script or give me a hint?
thanks pros.
