Under the circumstances I wouldn't say putting the countdown back up is not 'legit'. In fact, when the countdown began, you put it to the first of October without any legitimacy. Because Series 5 is coming in 'Spring' for us Australians, and 'Autumn' for the British, the 15th of October is the most accurate estimation as it is in the direct middle of the season. The reason it should remain up is because it adds to the excitement of Series 5 to an extent of people constantly visiting the wiki.
