Hey everyone. If you find a bug or want a feature added to @werewolfbutlerbot please log it here: https://github.com/dllz/EnforcerLua/issues

Hey everyone - at this point we've hit over 2M games, and reached over 100K groups. We decided to celebrate with a whole new web site and a limited run of some clothing! For the next two weeks, you'll have a chance to get a limited edition werewolf tshirt, hoodie, tank top, tote bag, whatever! You can get yours here: https://teespring.com/tgwerewolf

Full store is available here: https://teespring.com/stores/werewolf-for-telegram

If you are ordering internationally, we highly recommend you get together with friends / groups and order together - shipping rates will be much cheaper that way. Again, this is only available for the next two weeks.

In the meantime, be sure to stop by the new website :)
http://www.tgwerewolf.com

the /getstatus command is now fully automated. The bots will report their current status on their own (without an admin having to update it).

Codes:
Normal - Everything is good :)
Recovering - It's receiving, but the queue is backed up, so it's processing 100+ messages at a time
Error - The bot was unable to getUpdates from Telegram
NotReceiving - It's getting updates fine, but the updates are empty :( (it's not receiving the updates for some reason)

Example: I restarted bot 2, so it had to process all the messages it missed while restarting, recovered fine, and was back to normal

The store has been modified. All orders will now be finalized every 3 days instead of two weeks, so you get your stuff even faster!

Hey everyone, don't forget about @werewolfIIbot
Right now, @werewolfbot is hosting over 600 games. @werewolfIIbot is hosting 250.

Web Page update:
Bot Status is now live on the web page, just under the how to play section http://tgwerewolf.com/#howto

This status updates live, automatically. Take a look

Some of you have probably found this by now but, the serial killer now (rightly) has a 50% chance of dying from a werewolf attack. Happy hunting wolves!

Hey players :)
It has come to our attention recently that players seem to think that we are some sort of company, with employees and all that cool stuff. This is wrong.
Truth is, there is no company. The admins do not work for Para, and are not paid. For that matter, Para doesn't get paid either! WWBot was simply a side project, a coding challenge Para did one night for fun. It grew however, and he continued developing it - in his own time, because it feels wrong to take something like this away from the large number of people who play it.

Point is this:

There is no company.
There are no employees.
There are no paychecks.
Para and the admins are not rich.

We are simply Telegram users like yourself that want to bring something fun to you :)

Also - if you feel like telling Para thank you, that's great, but please also thank our admins in support chat who work hard to help Para out.

Seriously, couldn't have done this without them.

PS: This is why there is a donation link, and a shop with clothing. It really helps out :)

Node version 3.0.6093.245*
When joining a game, if the player has not started the bot, rather than simply getting a message telling them to start the bot, they will not be allowed to join at all until they do. This way important roles don't get killed because a player couldn't take two seconds to read and click the start button.

Node Version 3.0.6095.190**
Issues with lovers should be fixed now. If cupid fails to choose players, you should no longer somehow end up with 3 or 4 players marked as lovers.

@werewolfbot is back online

Hi everyone. You will see that reports made with @werewolfbutlerbot now have a unique ID sent with them. This is so that you can search the ID given on the message the bot sends you to find the report in spammy groups or look up previous reports.

You can also search #Report in the chat in order to find all the reports made.

IMPORTANT NOTICE:

In about 30 minutes, we will be taking werewolf down momentarily, while we migrate the database to a new location. We estimate possibly an hour of downtime, not completely sure. Part of our lag issues lately is the database maxing out the CPU on the server, so it's time to upgrade a little bit. Our new database will be cloud based, and completely scalable. If it gets maxed out / lags again, we can hit a button and simply increase resources to it.

اطلاعیه مهم :
به مدت سی دقیقه تا یک ساعت ،ربات های ورولف بسته خواهد بود ، ما در حال انتقال اطلاعات به سرور جدیدی هستیم ، تا قسمتی از لگ و فشار رو کمتر کنیم .
مقدای از فشار برای سی پی یو و مقداری برای دیتابیس بود .
وقتشه که به روز رسانی هایی اعمال بشه تا در اینده سرور های بهتری رو ارائه بدیم . پویا رجائی .

Maintenance has started. We will be migrating once all the games have ended.

Database migration has been started.
