Grey Wolf Development

Happy Valentine's Day, everyone! 🐺❤️

The waiting has an end - hopefully. While we still aren't sure whether the problem came from telegram or from our server hoster, it seems to be better and somewhat stable now. You can play games again. Happy wuffing! 🐺

On a sidenote, spamming the bots is NOT going to help them come back faster. The following is just one out of many spam logs that we currently receive (and that automatically bans the user from playing werewolf!)

Don't help bringing the bots down and don't get yourself banned from playing in the future. :)

Even though beta doesn't seem to be able to admit it, both Werewolf bots and Executrix are having issues. We are trying to fix them soon, sorry for the inconvenience :)

Since the C# library for telegram bots got updated today, you can now also use underline and strikethrough for extra commands in reply: GroupAdmin: Hi. I am a really awesome crazy person! GroupAdmin [in reply to GroupAdmin]: /extra #TheUltimateTruth Grey Wolf Executrix: Extra command #TheUltimateTruth saved!

Happy 2020 to everyone out there! 🎉🎊🎇

[Markdown Updates] Telegram released the new Bot API Version 4.5 that allows for strikethrough, underlined and combined entities (like in this example: bold and italic). Executrix' code already allows for all those entities, so you can start pepping up your group's welcomes, #extra commands and rules immediately! Example how to use: <s>Strikethrough</s> <u>Underlined</u> <b><i>Bold and italic</i></b> <s><b><u><i>Crazy stuff!</i></u></b></s> Enjoy! 🎉

The bots are back, happy wuffing! 🐺

Since the bots decided to make trouble again, we're scheduling a server reboot right now. For now, you can't start new games, sorry. Once all games ended, the server will be restarted and the bots will hopefully take their work again. Don't worry though, it's going to be the last reboot in this decade, we promise ;)

The bots are currently laggy / down because of a telegram-side issue. Nothing we can do about it, sorry. Edit: It seems to be over, the bots are working fine again :)

[Revoke Link Bot] In response to the recent spammer attacks, most recently in our Off-Topic group, we have created a new bot that will help you getting rid of the Invite Link mess that many Telegram groups tend to have: @RevokeLinkBot! The bot can create a group link for your group that any admin can revoke at any time. If the bot's link is the only link used to invite other people, revoking it will stop any more people from entering the group. For more information about the bot's features and functionality, read this post: https://telegra.ph/RevokeLinkBot---Manual-11-17

[Werewolf Vets] Maybe you know the veterans group. It's the second official game group, which used to be available for everyone after playing 500 games. However, it's obvious that the times where the werewolf veterans met and played there regularly are over - the group's population consists of deleted accounts, people who prefer to play elsewhere and ghosts - a perfect spot for halloween, isn't it? The spirit of halloween came to the conclusion that everyone could enjoy theirselves best if the 500 games border was removed. Instead, Veterans will now be a place for quick, small games (maximum players limited to 15) and varying game settings. Join us at @werewolfvets and play nice rounds with us and the Spumpkin 🎃 right now! Happy Wuffing! 👻🐺

👻 Something spooky is going on! 🎃 It's halloween again, the time of the pumpkins, ghosts, where children run around in the streets and try to collect candies as many as they can. But beware of the clown! *from the background* Pumpkin? Someone-a called me? Oh yea, welcome back to our friend, the Spumpkin 🎃! Maybe you remember them from last year. A special role is going to haunt you in your dreams - and in your werewolf games 🐺 But the spirit of halloween seems to be stronger this time. Way stronger! There are ancient rules about to be broken...

[Werewolf Role Settings Update] Today, we are finally releasing the new update that many of you were waiting for! You can now choose to disable any role (except villagers and werewolves because they are required to fill up games) in the /config menu. After you're done, you have to validate the settings to ensure that a balanced game is possible with your role setup. More detailed instructions can be found in the role configuration menu! When players die of AFK, the bot will now not only show the global afk count of the last 24 hours but also how many of those afks were in this group. Besides, there have been many bug fixes and minor improvements. Enjoy! 🐺

Also, if you have met these people, I strongly suggest you clear your tg cache : Go to settings, data, storage, clear cache. This will help remove any trace of the materials they sent from your device. Also, the support group is back online

In case you are wondering what happened to the support groups: So, the last few days we recevied some reports about a group of people. This group targetted other groups (mostly werewolf groups) by joining them with one account, sending a few pornographic GIFs, joining them with many other accounts and reporting the group to telegram. Telegram then took those groups down because of the pornographic content. When we got the reports, including a list of people who were involved and a large bunch of messages that proved what happened, we banned those persons globally from Executrix, so your groups are protected (at least from those particular accounts) if you use Executrix there. Now, sadly, they decided to take revenge. They joined our support groups and did the same trick. Executrix did not automatically ban them there because the support groups are whitelisted from the global banning (because globally banned people are meant to go there for ban appeals). Now, the support groups are down. We messaged telegram to get them back up already but we're still waiting for an action. If you need help in the meantime, you can message @GreyWolfSupportBot in PM (but please only message it if you really need help - if the bot gets flooded we won't be able to help through it). Also wait patiently for a response after you messaged the bot, there is a small team behind that might not always be active. Happy wuffing in the meanwhile 🐺

We just accidentally globalbanned some legit users as "spambot" in Executrix. All those bans have been lifted again, we apologize for the mistake. If a user was banned from a group however, they need to be unbanned from the group again, else the local ban will persist. Heads up to all group admins out there: If anyone was banned from your group automatically for being a spambot in the last 1-2 hours, please unban them. Sorry once again.

Well, maybe it would be smarter to turn the flight mode OFF before connecting to the server.... The bots are back now, enjoy XD 🐺

[Bots down] Due to unknown reasons, the bots' server appears to be down at the moment. We are trying to get it back ASAP! Sorry for the inconvenience!

https://www.twitch.tv/para949 Stream has begun. We are being silly, but the steam key giveaway will happen in about 30 minutes :P (I'm running downstairs right now)
