Is this some new meme I'm unaware of?

Champing vs. Chomping. The proper saying is "champing at the bit," not "chomping..."

Well I'll be...

Those crazy English.

Although I've absolutely *never* heard or read "champing at the bit" anywhere, I suppose it actually was the original saying. I would've lost a very large bet on this.

I have to admit, however, that as much as I consider myself to me overly critical of writing mistakes, I must say that is is - in my opinion - one of the least offensive, as the two words are not only spelled and pronounced very similarly, but they also have identical meanings.

Then again, I supposed that's why you added the XML tag. 8)

Damn. I should have bet you a copy of Realm Works with a lifetime cloud service. *sigh*

Any update on the status on 1.0 Realm Works? I'm chomping at the bit to get started with my campaigns.

They're still plugging away. They recently tackled some more of the nastier bugs, and are hoping to get another Beta release out soon to make sure they are indeed conquered. So progress is being made. (No, I'm not giving a release estimate

)

Get Realm Works out very soon, or the beer gets it! I'm desperate! I'll do it!
