Will I get banned for this harmless script?

For those of you who don't know, scripts aren't just for gaming. You can write scripts to help you do almost anything automatically on your computer. (Open websites, delete spam emails, etc.)

One of these scripts I wrote is to automatically click the "Accept" button when it appears. I made this script because the long queue times are boring to wait through so I exercise or make food while waiting for a game. By the time I hear the 'Match Found' sound, it's too late to get back to the computer to click "Accept."

Question is, I know Riot uses programs to detect scripting software, will it detect this script as a way of cheating or will it be fine to use?

ix. Using any unauthorized third party programs, including mods, hacks, cheats, scripts, bots, trainers and automation programs that interact with the Software in any way, for any purpose,

To answer your question: Yes it is possible to be banned for your script.

It sucks that the wait time for a game can be the same as watching a show or youtube video, but Riot wants to make sure you are 100% committed to both finding a game and playing one, and not distracted by another means.

even though it's small, if it was ever detected, i assume it would count.
