Everybody has this. There needs to be at least one thing in the ticker at all times, so they put that in there.

It's there because it's a thing coming up on Giantbomb, it's just far off.

But why does it say The End of Star Wars: Galaxies is the question?

It's the date that SWG servers are being shut down to make way for SW:TOR.

@poisonmonkey: you know those numbers are the date that it takes place and the number 12 means December.

Can anyone confirm what live streaming video content there will be, where to find it, and what time I should look for it?

I am a confused moron.

Thanks

I'm pretty sure this will be the TNT for this evening.

Thanks a lot for your reply. I would really hate to miss this.

So, does that usually happen at 7pm Pacific standard time?

That seems very late.

I live in Florida, does the website adjust for my time difference? Maybe it is 7pm my time and not in California, I guess that would be the best guess right?

@Old_Corncob: I am in the UK and it starts at 12.00am according to my front screen here so that would make it about 4 pm on PST i think

It is 7 pm your time. The site tells me it is 8pm for my timezone (Atlantic).
