I love that when they get excited they bounce their 'mittens' up and down - they just need a tiny, spider sized speech bubble following them about going "Ooh ooh ooh Squeeeeee!!!!" Pixar totally need to make a movie about these guys! :) Aww, these little guys are so cute!

I am still using the same version of the chomp program that I downloaded back in June/July so if it no longer works the same way, your comment is much appreciated. I'd be tempted to test various options such as "leave 0.0P", "leave 0.01P" and so on to have chomp remove the maximum amount possible - I would not really want it to leave me with 150mb. I could do "leave 0.01M" according to the command-line help though if the 'percent' based options don't yield the right kind of results. Either way, thanks for noting your findings and solutions - hopefully it'll be useful to somebody who follows in the same footsteps. @James

However, I found modifying the following line ... > "C:Program Files Public (x86)Chompchomp.exe" WoWCombatLog.txt leave 0P /CRLF >> chomp.lst ... to ... > "C:Program Files Public (x86)Chompchomp.exe" WoWCombatLog.txt leave 15P /CRLF >> chomp.lst ... resolved the issue. Of course, users can choose which size in MB (so, my chunks are 15MB) they want their chunks to be, but the 0 just wasn't working at all for me. Hope this helps, and thanks again for the pre-work! ;) @Broliant

It should continue to work until Blizzard change something fundamental about the combat log again. @James
