To prevent any incorrect tampering by the user that might lead to the application crashing. On that note, throwing exceptions when the file has bad data is important as well to stop crashes even if files are bad.

This would involve:

`teams.txt`

check for illegal chars
make sure each line follows the "Name|ABBR" format
Issue a warning if a team is missing an image
No images with no team in the txt (warning)

`maps.txt`

make sure each map in txt has an image

`TimerLength.txt`

has a positive value
nothing else

`output/Timer.txt`

might need to make sure this exists, unsure how the program will behave if it doesn't
