(Request/Question) Gold saucer minigames farming

Hey all

With the Gold Saucer Minigames getting a decent buff at 10 mgp a win, I was wondering how difficult it would be to make a script that would utilize those games as a decent mgp farmer. Any ideas?
 
I just joined this forum and have yet to download, or read guides to writing scripts for, this program. I've been scouring the internet for what will be my first bot for FFXIV that would do just this. Just because MGP is probably the worst thing to farm in the game. I just want to get a Tortoise mount, maybe Fenrir later on, so I just need something to run between queues or while talking over steam during a break.

So, I'm sure someone has made one already, but unlike the chocobo racing or triple triad ones, the mini games are significantly shorter and might be easier for SE to detect? 1000 plays would only result in 10k mgp, and with each play (selecting game, completing game, repeat) taking 5 seconds at least... that's only about:
120(output)-12(entry)= 108mgp per minute
6480 per hour.
Less mgp per hour, and a higher number of plays to get there which (if it's getting logged) looks more suspicious. However given the number of gil farmer bots that've been on my server for months without detection (like if you pull in tens of thousands of shards a day, you'd think they'd have a flag for that by now, but I guess not...) my thinking might be a tad more cautious than the circumstances warrant.


Not only that but 110+ mgp per win (edit: 30 to play, 117 a win, so 87, less because of average loss rate) on King Elmer in triple triad probably is significantly more efficient if you have a high win rate deck. Plus they buffed the mgp rewards in chocobo racing so that might overshadow the minigames as well.

Regardless, until there's a stable release of a Triple Triad farmer like described above, I'd also be happy with a simple Cuff-A-Cur bot so I'm getting something while afk. I'll put some time into figuring it out this week.
