Making map name disappear

All right, so, this might be an incredibly nooby question, but:

How do you make a map name disappear in-game? I can make it appear just fine, y'know,

Autorun: Show Text->Erase Event.

And that works fine, every time I enter the map. The problem is that I have to press the action button to make it go away, or I can't go anywhere. Is there a way that I can set it so that it goes away on its own (say, after 10 frames or so, or after you beging walking?)

Sure. Make it a Parallel Process script that goes Show Picture, Wait 40 Frames, Erase Picture, Erase Event.

Now just make your Picture the name of the map.

Or, to conserve space, they could porbably cut out an incredibly small piece of a Custom Message System script, and use it to make the text automatically go away. If that interests you, you might want to try posting a request for that specific portion of a system.
