[Telegram Issues]
The bots are unstable right now because of Telegram-Side issues. Please be patient, we'll enable them later when telegram is more stable.
Time to grab some air I guess :)

[April Fool's - Over]
Hey everyone, to all of you who played werewolf yesterday, maybe you noticed the additional variance that it had? The bot switching game modes like crazy is surely fun, it needs to end at some point - which is now. Hope you all enjoyed!
If you noticed that some variants in your language could really need an update because half of the strings are not changed, or if you'd like to create a completely new variant of your own, do not hesitate to join @greywolfsupport and ask about it! (Please do note that variants with personal references / insider jokes are not accepted).
Happy Wuffing everyone, and keep being funny! 🐺

[Werewolf Update]
Balancing: To improve balancing, normal (non-chaos) games now have the following additional restrictions:
- There can't be more than 1 revealed role (mayor, gunner, blacksmith, pacifist, sandman, troublemaker) per 3 players.
- There can't be more than 1 kill-stopping role per 4 players. Kill-stopping roles are roles that grant the village 2 lynches in a row without a baddie kill in between, namely troublemaker and sandman, as well as blacksmith (if the only baddies are wolves).
Also, the role weight of the grave digger has been lowered from 8 to 5.
Fixes:
- The
- The bug where the arsonist could act despite being frozen by the snow wolf was fixed.
- The frequent crashes that were recently happening should not occur anymore.

[Executrix Issues]
In an attempt to find out what's the problem with Executrix (she keeps dying in the last days), we've taken her down for a while (and might do so a couple more times).
Please do not remove Executrix from your groups - we're trying to figure out what it is that makes her die.
Thank you!
Edit: For the time being, she's back... As much as it gets.

Telegram seems to be facing some datacenter problems at the time being, which also causes our bots to lag.
Werewolf is currently in maintenance mode, we'll bring it back as soon as telegram is working well again!

Hi everyone! 🐒 (🐺)
In order to test how bots can work with the new topics feature on telegram, I need to create a topic group.
A group needs at least 200 members to be converted to a topics group, so you can help me out by joining here:
https://t.me/+mXjHyBeqnDcwNTli
For now that will just be some off-topic place I guess, maybe it can be converted into something useful later. Thank you everyone! :D

[Bot Issues]
The werewolf bots suddenly stopped working.
When trying to find the problem, I was greeted with a bunch of 500-errors by telegram, indicating some problem on their side.
We'll keep an eye on this and let you know when the bots are back to normal :)

[Donations & Custom GIFs - Last Chance]
With the upcoming telegram update, all payments for digital goods and services need to be done in Telegram Stars
(See official @BotNews channel, announcing the changes for bot developers).
That includes tipping developers.
We can sadly not switch our donation system easily (payments would only be accessible via the TON blockchain for us - the developers cannot update everything accordingly as of now).
The background to this are policies by Apple and Google who take a share of any purchase made inside an app downloaded from the App Store / Play Store. Apple forces Telegram to change payments for digital services in this way in order to comply with the App Store guidelines. #BlameApple
Since continuing the donations like they are now might risk getting our bots blocked, and XSolla donations are currently not working anyway, we will soon disable all donations for an undetermined time.
⚠ You can donate until June 8th. Afterwards, donations are disabled.
If you have always dreamed of giving us $10 to help with the server costs, and getting a custom gif pack, now is your chance! Donate through Telegram by sending

[Executrix Admin Cache]
Telegram apparently had a bug earlier today where it treated all group admins as anonymous admins, no matter if they were actually anonymous. If Executrix updated its cache for your group in that timeframe, admins may currently not be recognized as such by the bot.
To fix this, have an elevated user use

/cache in your group if you have one. If you don't have an elevated user available to do it, just wait - the problem should fix itself within 5 hours, when the bot updates its cache the next time. 🐺Happy 2⃣0⃣2⃣5⃣!
We from GreyWolfDev wish you all the best and a great new year! 🎉

Telegram is currently having issues with the bot API - many bots appear to be affected, including the werewolf bots and executrix. We will disable new games until the problem seems to be resolved.
In addition to telegram's issue, our server is also overloaded now. We will try to fix this but it will probably take some hours until somebody gets to it, so please be patient. Do not spam bot commands, it does not help and only risks getting you banned from our bots. Sorry for the inconvenience.
