To those who joined the Coup beta:
in about 15 hours I will run a command. If you have only played 1 game, or not at all, you will be removed from the beta so others can have a chance to join. Please keep this in mind!

The bot is currently having trouble.
Now, take a look at that individual : his behaviour is the opposite of the appropriate behaviour.
Do NOT spam the bot.
Take some time to eat, sleep and go outside

I love you guys

Today is Matteo's birthday. Wish him a happy new year and whatever you like.

For those with TDesktop Alpha (support for themes) we've created @tthemebot . Use it for inline searching themes, or to upload your own themes for Telegram. As usual, submit bug reports and such on GitHub (https://github.com/GreyWolfDev/Telegram-Theme-Bot)

Theme users: @tthemebot update! You can now rate a theme in the bot after choosing it :)

Null
This is the null theme for TDesktop. Clean, dark and with simple blue details.

For those wondering how to use themes, they are currently only available on Telegram Desktop alpha (until Telegram fully releases)

You can get it here:
https://desktop.telegram.org/#alpha-version

Themes are now available on the public version of Telegram! Be sure to check out some available themes using @tthemebot inline search (check out null and nightmode, those are my favourites)

The backlog of themes pending approval has been cleared (finally) - there are now a lot of checks in place for file validation as well.

Please, if you upload a theme, follow a few guidelines:
Give the file the same name as your theme (or close to it)
Give your theme a meaningful noscript and denoscription
For the screenshot, please use the official Telegram theme preview, not a screenshot of your private chats
Do not upload duplicates of themes others have created

To make changes, do not re-upload your theme - please use /edittheme instead

We've made a couple minor updates to @tthemebot. When uploading / editing a theme, you can now /cancel at any time. The bot also will not reply in PM anymore if you reply to it in a group.

We've also updated some of the questions asked to help themers create better listings, and made it so you can display your username without showing your display name on the listing.

It is with a heavy heart I post this message. One of our own has passed on to a kinder place.

Wuffers,

   Today we mourn the loss of @andre_fuqua, a werewolf player from Texas. He passed away this morning from gunshot wounds sustained in a violent attack last night. He was a compassionate, free-spirited young man that was always smiling and brought smiles to those closest to him. Our thoughts are with his family during this sad time.

While *I* did not know him personally, many players had the good fortune of knowing this kind soul. In learning about him, some even called him "Ghandi". I am deeply saddened by this unfortunate loss to our community, and as stated above our thoughts are with his family and friends.

Let the next game you play be in honour of Andre Fuqua (@andre_fuqua), the kindest runner in Texas

For those of you who want to do markdown in your messages but do not use plus messenger, telegram web and do not want to use @bold you can use /mark <message> and Enforcer will reply with the message marked down
Example: /mark _italics_ *bold* [link denoscription](url)

Hi everyone. We are currently testing a complete rebuild of Enforcer that will be much faster and support significantly higher load. We are will be announcing a beta program of some sort for it ASAP to sort out any small issues before going mainstream with it.


For those of you who are interested to know: we had to completely rebuild Enforcer because the programming language it was originally built in is a single threaded noscripting language that is very unstable. This means that whenever the bot came under heavy load or just felt like it it would slow down or restart itself. Sadly no amount of improvements can fix the fundamental flaws in the programming language itself so we started from scratch and built basically an entirely new bot. It will have exactly the same data in it as the old one and the commands should be exactly the same, any exception to this will be mentioned here.
Thank you for everyone's patience.

Hi everyone we will be taking @werewolfbutlerbot down for a couple of minutes for quick database maintainance. Thank you for your patience

The bot is coming back online now. Should take about 5 minutes to catch up.

We will soon be going live with the new bot. We have spent the last couple days trying to test everything.

It should mostly be the same, a couple commands have changed a little. You can use /getcommands to see all the commands, some of which might not be for normal users.

Media settings, flood and group language can now all be set in /menu.

The bot can now be fully translated into any language. If you would like to translate the bot please join @werewolfsupport.

If you encounter any issues please join @werewolfsupport.

The new bot is now live on @werewolfbutlerbot.

If you encounter anything not working as it used to or a bug please join @werewolfsupport

We had some scaling issues on the bot so we swapped back for a bit while we sorted that out. We appear to be running fine now under the previous load

@enforcerbot
Enforcer username change over

We have also had the bots usernamed changed. No one will need to do anything, but the bot will now respond to @enforcerbot instead of the previous one

@enforcerbot
Enforcer markdown change.

To prevent people with unusual names and other outliers from breaking the markdown on your message. Enforcer is now using HTML Markdown.

Below I have linked a basic guide to HTML Text formatting as everyone will need to modify there messages with markdown.
