Is there something wrong here or am I running into lots of players from the Antarctic? Is this a legit phenomenon or are some people just saying that's their homebase for whatever reason. they may be from Brooklyn, for all I know. It's just that I'm starting to play and hear (including postings) from players ostensibly from the Antarctic. If this is really true, how about getting some people from the Arctic and arranging a match between the poles? How about a Penguin Clan?

Penguin Clan? Haven't you heard? A penguin clan already exists. We are the mighty Mr. Flibble's Penguin Army! Much like the Mongols of yore, we are a gathering horde, and soon, we will sweep north from our lands at the bottom of the world, driving everythinmg before us with beak and flame to conquer and rule. Tremble with terror you soft Northern Nancy's! As soon as our Penguin Professors figure out how to steer the giant iceberg we recently managed to seperate from the Antarctic ice cap after three hundred years of resolute and round-the-clock pecking, the war begins.
