Ah well, the link might've been legit. No biggie. Brb, gonna quickly log into GW and WoW and do some online banking.
Is this illegal/bannable?

Bannable if you get caught.
And as others have said, it's more fun to be drunk while questing, vanquishing, etc. than while sitting in town

This might be a bad place to ask, but is there a timer like program, for windows, that could beep every 2 minutes or so. Then I can do something and click to drink.

I don't have any proof, but I know I saw Gaile state that it's a bannable offense, but they won't be actively looking for people using it, unlike bots who are being hunted.

I wouldn't try it, since a bot is a third party program, which is against the rules.

I use my G15 macro keys to login, etc. that is also fine.
When I got my sweet tooth title, i had stack upon stack of Creme Brulee. I used a mouse macro to click until I said stop on each stack (because after about 4 stacks, my finger was going to fall off)

Ugh. This is a horrible thread.
Go to google and look for a mouse double click program. There's no reason it HAS to be the "drunkard bot" program. Or use your mouse macro program that came with your mouse. And suddenly the chances of it being a keylogger go down dramatically.
Cheapens the title? Perhaps to some people. But that can be said about a lot of things in-game. Even about the trick of warping after drinking to speed up the process. It might take a bit of skill to do well, but it's still an exploit. Besides, the biggest barrier is still the untold fortune that will be required to attain that much alcohol.
Go ahead and use a clicker program. Keep it quiet and do it on your own and take your chances if you want. What are the odds you get busted? Ridiculously small. Just remember that they are still there so you never know and the risk is real. They have to officially state that all programs are bannable offenses only because they don't want every fool coming and asking them if "program x" is ok to use.
They probably made drunkard harder to achieve just because they don't want to be perceived as encouraging drinking. So they made it harder. Honestly they could eliminate the majority of the debate just by making drunkard like sweet tooth.
Playing while working on the drunkard title, however... now that's my kind of stupid.

ahhh check out the mapping titles everywhere... and the forums about "map cantha in a day" or such... textmod has a huge influence on the game, titles, and making it alot easier....
drunk title with auto clicker... still alot of time
cartographer with text mod.... well under 1/2 the time
my view, if they let texture mod, they should let a simple mouse click every 2 minutes... that 2 mins is still 2 mins... it doesnt totally take the title and rip it in half or less...
just me 5 cents...

i agree, both different planes, but... both 3rd party software, and i, and many other players, feel textmod took alot more away from the 3 mapping (4 including legendary) then a simple afk click ever 2-3 minute tool would... so personal, i think textmod is worse then this drunkard mouse click micro ever could be...

Decompiling the program, the entire "bot" is scripted using Autohotkey and consists of a single line of code less than 20 characters long. It does exactly what has been stated before - double clicks your mouse every 180 seconds.
Shadowmoon
I'd like to get input from gaile on this, if it is similar to texmod. Seeing how most of the work comes from getting the booze for the title, if this little helper was told to be too below the radar to care by Anet, i'd liek to know.
I think you and I know there a big difference between an autoscript that double clicks every 3 mintues, and one htat autozones, kills mobs, and loots, and repeats.

it's amazing to see ig stuff for the Sweet title, Sugar Rush & Pumpkin Ecstasy icons but nothing for the Drunkard effect.
I'd prolly go for a "1 minute beeping tool" in that case, but a clicking one would get you a ban, even with a random value in the process.
/wish for a point system change about all this

This is the only title Texmod affects. Hell, it's the only thing in GW that people can get up in arms about with Texmod - and it's a very insignificant change.
MercenaryKnight
I will just stick to my method of getting 3 drunkard minutes in under 10 seconds. Faster than sitting there waiting out 10,000 minutes and easily repeatable.
I still believe that a mouse macro "should" not be a bannable offense. They decided to make you afk 10,000 minutes to gain the title. So what if people have lives and make a program to double click for you every 1/3 minutes? They got the alcohol and don't feel like clicking it all day long for weeks.
But what "should" not be bannable is not always how a.net does it. So it wouldn't surprise me if they've already falsely banned plenty of drunkard title seekers for standing still and searching the web, then pulling up the gws screen every 3 minutes and double clicking.

IMHO - this is a really great way to acquire drunkard minutes. Here's what I did to max the title:
(1). Open your title window so you can see drunkard minutes; and also open your inventory so you can later click on drinks.
(2). Set up timer to beep every 3 minutes.
(3). Wait for the first beep.
(4). After 3-4 seconds, click drink(s) to get fully drunk (1 spiked eggnog or aged dwarven ale is best for this).
(5). Now either play GW or do some other computer-related task for 3 minutes.
(6). When you hear the next beep; (if necessary switch back to GW and) watch for your drunkard minutes to increment.**
(7). Now click 3 minutes-worth of drinks - i.e. to get fully drunk again (1 firewater is the best way, otherwise use 3 1-minute drinks).
(8). /RinseRepeat steps 5 thru 7 (my goal was to get at least 2 hours of drunkard minutes in each sitting).
** If you don't switch back soon enough, your minutes will have already incremented. If that happens - wait a few more seconds, and if you still don't see your minutes increment then do step 7.
The best thing about this approach is you are doing all the work (*** NO BOT IS INVOLVED ***); all the timer does is provide you with an audio cue when to click the next set of drink(s).
Further, you are actually spending 'real-time' minutes drunk, and not gaining 'cheap minutes' by doing the zone-warp trick.
It definitely is a grindfest to max this title - but with a little (ok a LOT) of perseverance and patience (and gold!) - this is the result

Write the program yourself java is a simple enough language to learn and it is a rather simple program. Or hell even BASIC if you need too.

i see why its risky because afterall you should just be playing. i find it less boring if you dont drink all your alchol at once and work on it overtime. The whole text mod thing is totally different. Its nothing to do with being lazy and waiting along time
