Am I to assume that since no one has offered any help that it can't be done or is extremely complex? If it is impossible could someone just state that.

It's possible, as for SSP there is a timer, however this would require extensive source code editing. So it's sort of close to impossible.
everything is possible; the impossible just takes longer.

the FPS is already limited to 10 minutes a round -_- (and in some cases 15)
source code editing is requires to modify them

It's very easy to do it in Cubescript.
Just write in the cfg of your map:

Code: Select all

sleep x [endsp]
Insert for x the time after which the game should end (in milliseconds).
