According to the Statistics site, Scratch has no users in Antartica.

But there are about 40k people with the location “antartica”, which I found out by googling

So, it is clearly meant to be Location not Given.

Dupe, but i can`t find it!

No, I like my location as “Antarctica”.

i dont know whether this is true or not, but im pretty sure statistics only count user's first locations

Scratchstats doesn`t rely on that. It`s the location the user last changed it to.

What if a person who actually lives in Antarctica has their location as it? (though very slim)

I'm pretty sure scientists don't use Scratch

Hence the “(though very slim)”.

No support. Antarctica (alongside other locations like Christmas Island) are used by most Scratchers to hide their location (usually the United States).
On the location dropdown, changing one of the locations to something like “Location not given” would remove the reason as to why this would be changed to begin with.

No Support, some people just want to have fun by making their locations “Antarctica” and I don't see a reason why this should happen.

But what about me? I actually live in Antarctica lol

But yeah, no support. “Antarctica” is much more playful than the boring ol' “Location not Given”.

What about the pengiuns like Mr_PengiunAlex? I prefer Antarctica as the concept of lots of Scratchers in Antarctica rather than living in an undisclosed space. It would also make those who chose to use the glitch feel less special.
