This drunkard timer is an easy to use drunkard timer, which will show the time in your windows status bar, and can be used for both 1 minute and 3 minute drinks.

People playing full screen have the option to turn the sound on, and auto-add minutes.

You don't have to download anything, just follow the URL and you can use it

The drunkard timer and a list of functions can be found here:

http://guildwarsholland.nl/drunkard_timer.php

Currently its tested and works in Internet Explorer, Firefox and Google Chrome, but it will probably work in any other web-browsers.

FANTASTIC SMURF!!!
proud to have you in my guild lol.

BTW: the timer seems to be off by a second or so every minute... There's a gap between the beep and the hero window drunkard title bar that gets bigger every minute... (I use opera btw).

I just tested in firefox with my mobile stopwatch. Started on 4:60 and ended on 3:00, my mobile gives 2:00.28, and thats just because i clicked a little later then i saw the 3:00.

It's being calculated by the javascript of the browser, so it could be different in opera, but i'm not sure.

Very nice tool. I'm using it as we speak (far far better than other alarm clocks I've used).

Is there any way of making it so that the window does not pop on top when the alarm sounds? It'd be nice to leave Guild Wars on top if possible (maybe an option). I'm using Firefox

I can't do anything about firefox's behavior, i'm sorry to say that. In my case, it will only pop-up when i'm browsing in firefox, not when i'm gaming. (and i have the newest version of FF and using XP)

Any other sound would be great ... after listening to this one for 4 hours in a row (i hate this drunkard title) it really gets annoying, not only for me but also for the others in the same room. :S
Another one would get noticed to

i use this timer daily, its really helping me to get my title without wasting to many drinks cos i forgot to drink up, didn't check my title increase, or was to busy fighting mobs.
Sound is still annoying me and the guildies on vent lol.

Ive been meaning to download an auto-clicker, and set it to click every minute IMO it would make it way easier to get it.

Maybe it is, but it is up to you to find an program that plays it instead. The sound won't play with a program that plays it for you, and i think browsers use Quicktime in default, but there might be other programs that could work too.

I don't think arenanet would allow an auto-clicker, but it's your choise and your risk

For those who want a special sound to be played follow this instructions:

1.- Create a folder somewhere on your computer (create it on your desktop for easy access).

2.-On the link below click on it using the right button of your mouse.

http://guildwarsholland.nl/drunkard_timer.php

3.- Choose the option that says "Save link as" or alike(depends upon your browser).

4.- On the Save File Dialog open the folder you created on Step 1,
erase all the text that appears on the box: File Name and write: "timer.html" (WITH the quotation marks), change the "Save as type " box from "php" to "All files" and press Save.

From here you can either:

a) Download a beep noise (MUST BE .WAV FILE), rename it to "beep" (without the quotation marks) place it on the same folder as the timer file.
After this just double click the timer file and it is done.

or

b) Continue with these steps to use whatever file (.mp3,.wav,etc..) you want.

5.- Open Notepad and press CTRL + O (this means keep pressing ctrl when pressing the letter O otherwise find the Open menu), go to the folder where the file from Step 4 is and open it. NOTE: In order to see the file you must change the select box that says "Text Documents (.txt)" to "All files (*.*)".

6.- Press CTRL + H (Or find the "Find and replace" function) and on the first box write: "beep.wav" (without quotation marks) and on the second box the name of the file that you want to play. (Ie. boing.mp3 , EXPLoDE.wav , OMG.wav). Press the "Replace All" button and Save the file (shortcut CTRL + S otherwise find the Save menu). NOTE: You must write the name of you music file exactly as it is on the file with its format (.mp3, .wav, etc...), and it must be on the same folder as the timer file.

7.- Go to the folder where the "timer" file is placed and double click it to open it.

I hope this useful.

Also, I would like express my gratitude to Smurf Minions for sharing this with the community.

Due to the exact precision that this allows, how does Anet distinct between an Autoclicker and this?

PS - Thank you for this program, it helped me get an hour and I plan on using it more to get to R2.

Mostly because you're probably doing other things while this is going, and you're never going to click at exactly the same time

I love this thing. I put stacks of 3 1 minute alcohols in my storage and watch movies while clicking on the stacks of 3 every 3 minutes. Separating them into 3's helps make sure you don't over/underuse alcohol and let's you spam the click to get back to whatever you're doing.

Still.. I wish there were a better way.

I am a Linux user, and 4 browsers I have complain about some plugins to play the file, so I wrote a simple shell script similar to Smurf Minions' PHP code. I also used his beep sound, hope you don't mind Smurf

Don't judge its simplicity, it works for me quite nicely. Execute the script with ./drunkard_timer.sh from any terminal window, answer the question and bottoms up!

Cheers, and give your suggestions to me so I can improve it.

:edit:

added reworked script.

hmm... I don't think it was a good idea to beep at every 55 seconds. I understand you wanted to make beep go 5 seconds earlier, but this way, it will go 5 more seconds earlier every minute (so you will loose 10, 15, 20 sec etc) and you'll waste your drinks

You should make the first beep after 55 seconds, then each following after 60 seconds.. and similar logic to 3 min drinks (175 first, 180 each following)

I think i might write one in java soon, so it will work on whatever system you have.

Hey, nice job on it, using it a bit

Btw is their anyway to view php?
Touching a small corner of it in a college course would just be cool to see how one would do this.

would the sound part ever be something like
IF ($time == 118)
{
command for playing sound
}

?

unless coders normally keep it secret, new enough so don't really know.

The php part is just so i can keep track of how many people use it and isn't that interesting :P , the real deal is made with javascript, you can view it in the source of the page.

I hope no one is stupid enough to click that link... and that anyone who already has immediately scans their system for keyloggers & trojans.

That person joined today and is bumping old drunkard posts... no way that's legit.
