    I have created a macro that will earn you the majority of the achievements in this game, but it will only work if you have a 1920x1080 screen resolution. Not only will it earn you Kudos points for unlocking things on the Kudos Wall, but it will also make progress towards your total questions answered, time played, and level.

    1) Go here, and download the latest version of AutoHotkey:
    https://www.autohotkey.com/

    2) After finishing installing it, right click your desktop, hover over "New", and click "Auto Hotkey Script".

    3) Name the file, "Gimme Five.ahk"

    4) Right click the script, click edit script, delete the notice that is in the notepad, and paste the following code into the script:

    *** Spoiler - click to reveal ***


    5) Exit out of the script. Make sure to save.

    6) Double click the script on your desktop to run the script.

    7) Open up Gimme Five. Equip the "Trainer" powerup from the Kudos wall, if you have it. (It costs 1540 KP, if you don't have it) Start a game. Once the screen with a famous quote has gone away and the game has started, press Ctrl+J. This will activate the script.

    Here is what the script does: The script will click on the skip button. Then, when you run out of skips, it will use an OUST (the blue powerup). Once you use that, it will guess randomly by clicking on all nine options. After all the skips and the OUST has been used, it usually doesn't get past two or three more questions. Then, when the results screen shows, the position that is the bottom left answer is the same as the "Play Again" button. When the macro goes to click on that, a new game will start. The process will repeat, and you will earn Kudos Points and progress towards your questions answered and play time achievements.

    8) Leave your computer while you go to work/school/sleep/etc.

    9) When you return to your computer, to stop the script, press Ctrl+Alt+Delete. Click on Task Manager. Find the application that says "AutoHotkey" (you may have to click "More Details" for it to appear). Click on it and then click on "End Task". This will stop the script.

    Using this macro will progress you towards the following achievements and all achievements leading up to them:

    Just keep playing, obviously...but you knew that.

    The reason I'm posting is to let you know that the Bow and Arrow for an achievement is at 1820 KP, so you should consider holding 1000 KP anyway. This adds 3 seconds per question, and is a HUGE help in getting to more questions.
