IIRC Cheeky most recently said "first half of May." I wouldn't be surprised if the next update is only out in two weeks from now.

Did someone say, "where's the update?" (like it's not said on every thread on this site. Duh.) Well, there is some Cheeky news. It's coming. Still time to pop over and drop him some Patreon love (or money, even).

Hey folks,
Jump to the bottom if you just want a release date for Episode 12 without the preamble....
Just an update on what's been happening over the past several days. As per a previous post, we expanded the team and took on two new writers. However, unfortunately, we have already lost one of them. No disagreements or creative differences. Just real life got in the way and VAL realized he just couldn't take on WTHI as a project , based on everything else he has going on (there's a lot of work involved every month).
It's a pity because we were looking forward to working with him and he was excited about joining the team. But it's totally understandable as real life always comes first. There's no hard feelings and he may still end up joining the team at a later date.
So the team is now a trio, with me, Aeilion and Phalzyr.
Unfortunately, losing a writer has set us back a little bit as we've had to re-allocate the scenes he was assigned to work on, but it won't be any major issue. Between Phal and I, we already have enough written to make up a full-size episode (text / dialog wise) and we currently have at least 50% more art than previous episodes (Aeilion really pulled it out of the bag this episode & Phal really hit the ground running).
So we have the start and end of Episode 12 complete (and it's currently above average in size). We just need to fill in some of the middle scenes and paste it all together. Based on current plans, it will probably mean Episode 12 will be the biggest episode ever.
Currently estimating a release in Mid May. I know that's not an exact date, but it's the best estimate for now. I'll keep you updated....
Thanks,
CG

Some people are good at sarcasm, some people have wit and some people are incredibly hilarious.
You aren't one of those people.

I totally think she's actually holding back for the sake of not being overly mean (not like it wasn't justified). Hey ... just sayin'.Damn, girl, tell us how you REALLY feel!

Could you be more specific? I keep on wanting to correct his ellipsis myself. Nothing technically wrong with them but I'm so used to my way... There are a few other things I noted as well... BUT, writers tend to need assistance in that area and why the whole editor job exists. Not to mention the difference in spelling and general usage that varies in different countries. As long as criticism is constructive, a writer can improve. Simply saying vague dislikes helps no one.

Yeah I did think those two were a bit used too much, myself. Though, just like ellipsis its a preference thing, except for caps usage. I did notice ***giggle*** ***laughs*** and such has been used more in later episodes. Dang, you know I was trying to match his writing style... I wonder if I used hehe and haha too much, lol!
Oh, I enjoy it, but it just doesn't seem like something that requires a writer on staff.So should I put you in the 'fan', or 'not fan' column?

snigger is a correct variance of snicker..its just more sarcastic.
People tend to forget that English, whether it be British English, American English, or even Australian English, is the hardest language in the world to learn. English, whatever variant, has more words than any other language, and those words are constantly morphing/mutating/changing their meaning over time.
Hell, between British English and American English the same word or phrase can mean something completely different, or even the opposite.
Stop and think for a second, how many ways are there to say "hello" or "goodbye" in conversational use?
In English it's "I love you," yet in Russian or French it's "I you love."
Yes, non-native-English-writers are going to occasionally get it a little wrong, the language will appear stilted, but we should be a little forgiving. Hey, they're trying.
