Special Thanks to GB User FoxxFireArt for the Banner!Hello and welcome to the latest edition of the Giant Bomb Community Spotlight! As you already know this is the week of the second Big Live Live Show Live! Despite the task of having to organize such a mammoth undertaking there are still a few notable Staff related announcements to go over. Firstly Dave has a Set Top Box App Status table for interested users to check out. Secondly if you have recently subscribed a Whiskey Media membership Dave would like you to know about when you should expect your coupon for merchandise in the WM Store. Finally there's now some sort of Whiskey Media Trading Card Meta game going around the site? I don't know but check out this thread if you want to have a marginal understanding of the situation. Beyond that Ana of Tested video fame has recently celebrated her birthday so see if you can wish her a belated Happy Birthday and remember to check out the Giant Bomb Bomb Shelter for the best of the Community's User Created Content.
