Draft:Griffpatch - The Most Popular Scratcher

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Andrew Griffin has an account called "griffpatch[1]" on a coding website called Scratch.[2] Scratch is the largest coding website for kids, consisting of millions of "Scratchers[3]". As a child, Andrew was into coding.[4] When he grew up, and had a family of his own, he was still into coding, his job including Python. Then he found out that there was a website called "Scratch". He joined on the 24th of October, 2012, also making his own YouTube channel.[5] He gradually became more popular, and more famous, that a few years later, to this very day, he is the most popular and followed Scratcher on Scratch, with over 600,000 followers.[6][7] He is very skilled at making games, and has an account called griffpatch_tutor,[8] which he posts tutorials on, along with his YouTube channel. He makes cloud[9] games, meaning multiple players can play on it at once, on different devices. He became so popular, that on his profile, every few seconds or minutes, somebody commented, making griffpatch's profile a popular place and was – and still is – the perfect place for a Scratcher to post random comments and advertise their own Scratch projects. There even is a "term", called a "griffpatcher",[10] who is someone who goes and chats on griffpatch's profile frequently. He changed - and is still changing - the world of Scratch forever.
